Secessionism and Social Mood

“Bear markets can be traumatic ... those who prepare for change can help themselves and others.”

– The Socionomist, February 2010

A Texas governor's veiled threats to leave the Union. Vermont's first slate of secessionist candidates since the Civil War. Montana exempting itself from federal gun laws. Secession isn't relegated to the history book; it's a powerful modern political force. Declines in social mood chip away at the foundations of authority, eventually pushing citizens to attack their own government. The February issue of The Socionomist expands on the January issue's coverage of Civil War to present a socionomic view of secession and describes how culture and policy change when frustrations aren't given a vent.

In this month's Socionomist, Alan Hall compiles the first-ever index of U.S. secessionism movements to show how, when and why a citizenry decides to take its ball and go home.

In the February 2010 issue of The Socionomist, you'll learn:

• How secessionist tendencies interact with the impulse to go to war
• When and why social anger turns inward
• How governments attempt to navigate secessionist movements
• Which U.S. states are introducing secessionist legislation
• How secessionist impulses express themselves in financial markets

Also in this issue:

• Social Mood's impact on art prices
• Space exploration's return to Earth
• A sea-piracy stock exchange
• The United States' first legal male prostitute
• Mickey Mouse's bear market makeover
• The big slowdown on U.S. highways

Plus you'll get the previous three archived issues of The Socionomist.

Normally we would just offer this new publication for our usual low price of $19/month, but the tremendous interest in the inaugural issues persuaded us to continue our introductory special offer. Here is what we are prepared to do:

• We will send you 12 issues of The Socionomist ( a full year) for just $19/month.
• And we will send you a copy of our just-completed DVD of Robert Prechter's 2-hour speech to the London School of Economics free.
• All you have to do is pay for a year of The Socionomist in advance, after which time we will bill you quarterly at the normal rate (unless you decide to cancel).

If you are on the fence, you don't have to decide right away. You can always pay full price month by month whenever you decide to start.

But we want this publication to keep its momentum, so if you act now, we will give you this just-released DVD ($24.95 value) for FREE.

As they say in the garment district, "Such a deal!"
