Juni 1938 in Flagstaff, Arizona) ist ein ehemaliger US-amerikanischer Politiker (Demokratische Partei). Er war von 1978 bis 1987 Gouverneur des Bundesstaates Arizona und von 1993 bis 2001 US-Innenminister im Kabinett Clinton. Werdegang Babbitt erhielt an der University of Notre Dame ein undergraduate Degree, an der Newcastle University in England einen Master und anschließend an der Harvard University sein Law Degree. Nach seinem Abschluss war er als Jurist für das Justizministerium in Washington, D.C. tätig. 1967 kehrte er nach Arizona zurück, wo er einer Anwaltskanzlei in Phoenix beitrat. Einige Jahre später wurde er 1974 zum Attorney General seines Staates gewählt. Als der Gouverneur von Arizona, Wesley Bolin, 1978 im Amt verstarb, folgte Babbitt ihm als sein Nachfolger ins Amt. Offiziell wurde er dann 1978 für eine vierjährige Amtszeit gewählt, sowie 1982 wiedergewählt. Babbitt bewarb sich 1988 um die Kandidatur der Demokraten für das Amt des US-Präsidenten. Nachdem er jedoch schlechte Ergebnisse bei den Vorwahlen in Iowa und New Hampshire erzielt hatte, zog er sich aus dem Rennen zurück. Demokratischer Bewerber wurde schließlich Michael Dukakis, der wiederum dem Republikaner George Bush unterlag. Babbitt war in vielen ökologischen Verbänden tätig und erhielt mehrere Auszeichnungen von nationalen Umweltschutzgruppen. Präsident Bill Clinton ernannte ihn dann 1993 zum Innenminister der Vereinigten Staaten. Diesen Posten bekleidete er acht Jahre lang, also während Clintons gesamter Präsidentschaft. Nach Beendigung seiner politischen Laufbahn trat er der in Los Angeles beheimateten Anwaltskanzlei Latham & Watkins bei. Er ist mit Harriet Coons verheiratet. Das Paar hat zwei gemeinsame Kinder. /// Standort Wimregal Ill-Umschl2022-01ua Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Flat signed by Peter Viereck on front end page. Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket. Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Clean, unmarked pages. xvi, 320 p., 22 cm. "A powerful, often violent, often eloquent, often bitterly sardonic attack on mushy liberalism." - Gilbert Highet "Peter Viereck, was one of the very few American writers, perhaps the only one, to win Pulitzer prizes for both history and poetry. He taught history, and in particular Russian history, for almost 40 years at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. In later years he poured forth long, complex poems that grappled with the largest metaphysical questions. His greatest achievement, however, was written when he was just 25 years old, and originally titled Metapolitics: From the German Romantics to Hitler (1941). In it he traced the origins of Nazi thought to the German romanticism of Richard Wagner and Friedrich Nietzsche and beyond. He uncovered anti-Semitism, state-worship, and the romantic cult of the folksoul not only in obscure 19th-century wild men such as Friedrich Ludwig Jahn and Julius Langbehn, and in crazy toadies to Adolf Hitler such as Alfred Rosenberg, but also in figures such as Wagner, Nietzsche and Stefan George. But he also pointed out that even those romantic intellectuals - including Wagner, Nietzsche and George - tempted by extreme nationalism ended by rejecting it. Viereck was hailed as one of modern American conservatism's founders - though not by many conservatives. In 2005, a contributor to the arch-conservative magazine National Review pointed out indignantly that Viereck denounced Senator Joe McCarthy, the 1950s red-baiter, and voted for the 1952 and 1956 Democrat presidential candidate Adlai Stevenson, both, to true conservatives, marks of a dangerous liberal tendency. Yet Viereck's Conservatism Revisited: The Revolt Against Revolt (1949), was a pioneering work. Viereck claimed as his heroes such then unfashionable role models as Edmund Burke, Walter Bagehot and Prince Metternich, and proposed a moderate conservatism as a safe road between fascism and communism." - The Guardian.
