Arrogant Capital Arrogant Capital Washington, Wall Street, and the Frustration of American Politics by Kevin Phillips ( 1995)

Washington -- mired in bureaucracy, seduced by Wall Street, and dominated by 90,000 lobbyists, 60,000 lawyers, and the largest concentration of special interests the world has ever seen -- has become the albatross that Thomas Jefferson and our founding fathers feared: a swollen capital city feeding off the country it should be governing.

Bad Money Bad Money Reckless Finance, Failed Politics, and the Global Crisis of American Capitalism by Kevin Phillips ( 2009)

In BAD MONEY, political commentator Kevin Phillips presents a gloomy forecast for America's future, both economically and politically, as he rings the warning bell on issues such as our growing debt, our dependence on oil, and our inept financial and political systems. The ever-prescient Phillips first discussed such issues in earlier works such as AMERICAN DYNASTY and AMERICAN THEOCRACY. As time has passed, many of Phillips's concerns have been made clearer, and his tone is more urgent here. Phillips thinks both political parties are unwilling to call for the painful measures that need to be taken to stabilize our economy and shore up our position in the world. Phillips was ahead of the curve in his earlier books, and many of the things he warned about are in today's headlines. His writing stands out for its trenchant analysis of current events, and for his learned application of the lessons of history.
Boiling Point Democrats, Republicans, and the Decline of Middle-Class Prosperity by Kevin Phillips ( 1994)

From the bestselling author of The Politics of Rich and Poor, a scholarly examination of the steady decline of America's middle class--the book President Clinton singled out as the source that should help him solve the middle-class dilemma.
The Cousins' Wars The Cousins' Wars Religion, Politics, and the Triumph of Anglo-America by Kevin Phillips ( 2000)

The question at the heart of The Cousins' Wars is this: How did Anglo-America evolve over a mere three hundred years from a small Tudor kingdom into a global community with such a hegemonic grip on the world today, while no other European power -- Spain, France Germany, or Russia -- did? The answer to this, according to Phillips, lies in a close examination of three internecine English-speaking civil wars the English Civil War the American Revolution, and the American Civil War. These wars between cousins functioned as crucial anvils on which Various religious, ethnic, and political alliances were hammered out between the English-speaking cousin-nations, setting them on a unique two-track path toward world leadership -- one aristocratic and aloof to dominate the imperial nineteenth century and the other more egalitarian and democratic to take over in the twentieth century. They also functioned as unfortunate and deadly cultural crucibles for African Americans, Native Americans, and the Irish. Phillip's analysis shows exactly how these conflicts are inextricably linked and how they seeded each other. He offers often surprising interpretations that cut across the political spectrum -- for instance, that the Constitution of the United States, while brilliant in many respects, was also a fatally flawed political compromise that contributed mightily in setting the stage for the final -- and the bloodiest -- cousins' war: the American Civil War. With the new millennium upon us and triggering widespread assessment of our nation's place in world history, The Cousins' Wars provides just the kind of magisterial sweep and revisionist spark to ignite widespread interest and debatez This grandreligious, military, and political epic is the multi-dimensional story of the triumph of Anglo-America.
