About me I'm a social democrat (in the European tradition) living in a nation of economic liberals, reactionary populists, traditional conservatives, docile nationalists, imperialistic Straussians, amoral hedonists, apathetic "gamers" and the obligatory handful of right- and left-leaning anti-statists... Consequently, my free hours are typically dedicated to histories, political theory, literature, a thorough review of national and international news or a heated political debate regarding any number of the pressing issues of our time.
My productive hours are currently being spent: working part-time for the man; volunteering locally; and applying to various graduate programs...

About my library This is my corporeal library. A partial library of books that I've read, but do not own, can be found here, and a selection of books which I would one day like to peruse can be found here. Likewise, a selection of e-books, journal articles, notable works of journalism, pamphlets and the like which have been recently collected (or rediscovered) can be found here. Oh, and for record, this is not me.

No, I have not deleted our past conversation(s): they have merely been archived (and, of course, future exchanges will face the same (slightly?) ignominious end if and when the exchange in question comes to a close; but then, such is life, or, rather, the life of an online posting)...
