Who Rules America?

Who Rules America? was a 1967 book by psychologist and sociologist G. William Domhoff, which argued for the existence of an American upper class. The book ranked 12th in a list of 50 best sellers in sociology between 1950 and 1995.
Domhoff argued in the book that a power elite wielded power in America through its support of think-tanks, foundations, commissions, and academic departments. Additionally, he argued that the elite controlled institutions through overt authority, not covert influence.
In his introduction, Domhoff wrote that the book was inspired by the work of four men: sociologists E. Digby Baltzell, C. Wright Mills, economist Paul Sweezy, and political scientist Robert A. Dahl.
Reviewing the book for the Journal of Politics, Kenneth E. Miller concluded:
The book is provocative and deserves to be read. Unfortunately, its lack of focus and rigor limits its value for students of power and its uses.

Wholesale Market Brokers' Association

The Wholesale Markets Brokers' Association (WMBA) is a London-based financial markets body representing the world’s nine largest inter-broker dealers such as BGC, ICAP, GFI, Tradition and Tullett Prebon. Its members trade in a wide range of over-the-counter (OTC) products and derivatives across capital markets, including credit default swaps (CDS).
According to the Financial Times, this once low key organisation 'has become more high profile as inter-dealer brokers push aside rivalry and seek to prevent what they fear could be collateral damage from the current push to “re-regulate” swathes of the financial industry'. Philip Stafford, Q&A: Wholesale Markets Brokers’ Association, 29 December 2010, acc 15 December 2010 
==Activities==
According to WMBA's website:
:London money brokers are the dominant force in wholesale broking internationally with a product base which has grown from routine foreign exchange and money market loans and deposits to embrace bonds, equities and commodities, and their derivatives. The brokers provide the essential oil to the wheels of the dealing markets and their activities reflect the continual change taking place in these markets, particularly in the development of new financial instruments.
In response to the Financial Times asking in December 2010 whether WMBA felt that 'London, being such a strong financial centre, is getting enough voice [in Europe]?
Chairman David Clark responded:
:As an association, we have found that approaching the [European] Commission, getting into see policymakers and the scribes has not been that difficult. There is an open process in Brussels so entities in London like the WMBA feel comfortable discussing these issues with Brussels, that they’ve gone up a learning curve dramatically. As far as the voice of London is being heard in Brussels, it is and it has been influential. If ask me what the UK government is doing, the answer is I don’t know who’s on the case.

Why Are Britain's Universities Incubating Islamist Extremism?

Why Are Britain's Universities Incubating Islamist Extremism? was the title of a seminar held at the neoconservative orientated think-tank Policy Exchange on 21 August 2006. Tom Gallagher, '', The First Post, 21 August 2006. [PDF created 25 February 2010] It was attended by Anthony Glees, the author of When Students Turn to Terror; the Scottish academic Tom Gallagher; and the right-wing Irish historian Ruth Dudley Edwards. 
The news website The First Post posted an article on the day of the seminar promoting the event written by Tom Gallagher. In that article, and at the seminar itself, Gallagher argued that a main cause of 'radicalisation' amongst young Muslims was not injustice, but that Muslim students are not intellectually capable of achieving in higher education. He wrote:
[The] Government strategy to increase student numbers while diluting the quality of degrees, especially in the humanities and social sciences ... means many Muslim graduates will fail to establish themselves in the labour market. The word will spread that university is only a prelude to casual or low-paid jobs, which aids extremists grooming a young generation to reject Britain and embrace an international identity championing Islamic revolution. Tom Gallagher, '', The First Post, 21 August 2006. [PDF created 25 February 2010]
Ruth Dudley Edwards wrote an article on the conference in the Irish Sunday Independent. Starting with two anecdoates about how British students came home from university with more conservative religious views, Dudley Edwards continued:
Such undergraduates are typical of those who have been and are being turned into extremists on university campuses in Britain. In some cases, they have become murderers. These days they don't have to go to Pakistan to learn how to kill people: there are several training camps in England. ... Easy prey for extremists, said Gallagher, are British students whose talents suit them to be plumbers or carpenters, but whose parents are starry-eyed about their becoming professionals. With poor grades, they end up on a pointless course at a mediocre university and realise that they'll end up in some dead-end job. This makes them perfect recruiting material for those promising to give them a way of making sense of their lives. First, they are offered brotherhood and, through Islamic teaching, clear instructions on how to live each minute of your life. Then comes the indoctrination in the victim culture, the propaganda videos showing the suffering of brothers and sisters in Palestine and Chechnya and Iraq at the hands of Christians and Jews: obviously, no one points out that more Muslims are killed by Muslims than by anyone else. Nor are they told of how the West rescued Kuwait, or saved Muslims in the Balkans. The videoed sermons preaching the extermination of Jews and infidels come next. Ruth Dudley-Edwards, ‘Fundamentalist Lessons to be learnt by Irish Academe', Sunday Independent (Ireland), 27 August 2006.
