Republikanernas revolution - från Nixon till Trump. Nyskrivet förord 2018. Den politiska utvecklingen i USA har chockat en hel värld. Hur kunde en fastighetsmogul och tv-kändis som byggde sin valkampanj på en främlingsfientlig retorik bli president i en av världens största demokratier? Den amerikanska högern är en reportagebok om USA:s konservativa rörelse. Martin Gelin visar hur det går en röd tråd från sextiotalets konservativa radikaler till vår tids högerpopulism. Han skildrar bredden i den amerikanska högern, från lobbyisterna i maktens korridorer i Washington DC, till kristna familjer i Södern, frihetliga libertarianer i Las Vegas och medborgargarden vid den mexikanska gränsen. Den amerikanska högern, som Augustprisnominerades när den utkom första gången 2012, är en bok för alla som vill förstå orsakerna till den politiska krisen i dagens USA. Till denna nyutgåva har Martin Gelin skrivit ett nytt förord som knyter ihop högerns historia med presidentvalet 2016. "En enastående prestation." - Expressen "Journalistik på hög internationell nivå." - Fokus Martin Gelin är prisbelönt författare och har sedan 2001 arbetat som journalist i USA. Han är Dagens Nyheters korrespondent i New York och har kommenterat amerikansk politik för bland annat SVT, SR, BBC och CNN. "Vad som gläder mig är Gelins vägran att skriva i svartvitt. Hans fängslande reportage och tankeväckande analyser kännetecknas av en vilja att förstå den entusiasm som många av dagens, speciellt unga, republikaner utstrålar, inte att bekräfta trötta europeiska fördomar om den amerikanska högern." - Lars Trägårdh, Sydsvenskan "Boken är ett måste för den som vill förstå USA." - Per Wirtén, Dagens Arena "En mycket imponerande djupdykning i olika aspekter av denna mångsidiga höger. Det han visar i sin bok är två saker: dels att han är en riktig, undersökande journalist som inte drar sig för närkontakt med verkligheten; dels att han är en journalist som sätter sin sakkunskap i första rummet." - Janerik Larsson, Neo "En av årets viktigaste böcker." - Ulrika Kärnborg, Aftonbladet

Bokförlaget Nixon ger ut det Kommunistiska manifestet av Marx och Engels i en ny inbunden utgåva. Boken ingår som kurslitteratur på flera universitetskurser och är ett klassiskt idéhistoriskt dokument.

Många av Manifestets grundteser stämmer än idag, och används fortfarande av dagens revolutionärer. Men det är inte för att Marx och Engels var några profeter som satt inne med alla de rätta svaren. Marxismens teorier har växt fram utifrån arbetarrörelsens behov och klassförhållandenas utveckling. Teorierna är lika aktuella idag som när de började formuleras. De är analysverktyg som inte är fasta i sin tid, utan som arbetarrörelsen fortfarande utvecklar för att förstå sin egen situation. Däremot var manifestet inte Marx sista ord, och boken måste förstås som en historisk ögonblicksbild. Marx egna tankar om kapitalismen, kommunismen och arbetarklassen fortsatte att förändras och utvecklas även efter att manifestet gavs ut. (Ur förordet)
