Mark Blyth argues that economic ideas are powerful political tools as used by domestic groups in order to effect change since whoever defines what the economy is, what is wrong with it, and what would improve it, has a profound political resource in their possession Blyth analyzes the 1930s and 1970s, two periods of deep-seated institutional change ожхей that characterized the twentieth century Viewing both periods of change as part of the same dynamic, Blyth argues that the 1930s labor reacted against the exigencies of the market and demanded state action to mitigate the market's effects by "embedding liberalism" and the 1970s, those who benefited least from such "embedding" institutions, namely business, reacted against these constraints and sought to overturn that institutional order In Great Transformations, Blyth demonstrates the critical role economic ideas played in making institutional change possible and he rethinks the relationship between uncertainty, ideas, and interests on how, and under what conditions, institutional change takes place Mark Blyth is an assistant professor of political science at the Johns Hopkins University specializing in comparative political economy He has taught at Columbia University, and at the University of Birmingham, UK Blyth is a member of the editorial board of the Review of International Political Economy Формат: 15 см x 23 см Автор Mark Blyth.  Издательство: Cambridge University Press, 2006 г Мягкая обложка, 296 стр ISBN 978-0-521-01052-8, 0-521-01052-7 Язык: Английский.

What differences do welfare state variations make for women? How do women and men fare in different welfare states? In the first truly comparative book on this topic, Diane Sainsbury answers these questions by analyzing the situation in countries whose welfare state policies differ in significant ways: the United States, the United Kingdom, ожхбх Sweden and the Netherlands Building on feminist criticisms of mainstream research, Professor Sainsbury re-conceptualizes the crucial dimensions of welfare state variation and identifies those relevant to gender She uses this framework to determine the extent to which legislation reflects and perpetuates the gendered division of labor in the family and society, as well as what types of policy alter gender relations in social provision The application of the framework calls attention to the importance of distinguishing between women's entitlements as wives and as mothers, in contrast to previous analysis which has generally conflated women's social rights based on wifely and motherly labor It also underlines the need to examine the social rights of both women and men in order to move towards greater equality Diane Sainsbury tracks policy changes from the late 1960s to the present day and evaluates the impact of gender equality reforms to show which reforms work and which do not She increases our understanding of how policy mechanisms, especially the bases of entitlement, exclude or incorporate women, and offers constructive proposals for securing greater equality of the sexes Формат: 15 см x 22,5 см Автор Diane Sainsbury.  Издательство: Cambridge University Press, 2003 г Мягкая обложка, 276 стр ISBN 0 521 56579 0, 0-521-56579-0 Язык: Английский.

It is an all too common belief that Jews did nothing to resist their own fate in the Holocaust However, the parallel realities of disintegrating physical and psychological conditions in the ghetto, and the efforts of ghetto undergrounds to counter both collaborationist judenrat policies and the despair of a beaten down population, could not but ожхбч lead to a breakdown in spiritual life James M Glass examines spiritual resistance to the Holocaust and the place of this within political and violent resistance He explores Jewish reactions to the murderous campaign against them and their creation of new spiritual and moral rules to live by He argues that the Orthodox Jewish response to annihilation, often seen as unduly passive, was predicated in the insanity of the times and can be seen as spiritually noble Формат: 14,5 см x 22,5 см Автор James M Glass.  Издательство: Palgrave Macmillan, 2004 г Суперобложка, 224 стр ISBN 1-4039-3907-1 Язык: Английский.

"The Politics of Northern Ireland" is by one of the leading authorities on contemporary Northern Ireland politics and provides an original, sophisticated and innovative examination of the post-Belfast agreement political landscape The Agreement was a model of democratic ingenuity and political inclusion, and intimated the emergence ожхбю of a new style of politics based on the principles of consent and mutual responsibility It had the potential to transform Northern Ireland from a political culture of conflict to a potential culture of accommodation However, the implementation of the Agreement has been plagued by the mistrust of people in Northern Ireland and the imaginative institutions of government have had a fitful existence, penetrating in a permanent atmosphere of crisis This book explains the experience of hope and frustration through a systematic analysis of the ambiguous political legacy of the peace process Written in a fluid, witty and accessible style, the book explores: How the Belfast Agreement has changed the politics of Northern Ireland; Whether the peace process is still valid; The problems caused by the language of politics in Northern Ireland; That conditions are necessary to secure political stability; The inability of Unionists & Republicans to share the same political discourse; The insights that political theory can offer to Northern Irish politics; The future of key political parties and institutions This text is an outstanding contribution to the literature on contemporary Northern Irish politics and history and is essential reading for students and scholars in these areas Автор Arthur Aughey.  Издательство: Routledge, 2005 г Мягкая обложка, 216 стр ISBN 0-415-32788-1 Язык: Английский.

From the acclaimed globalization critic, a far-reaching analysis of Americas military, economic and political vulnerability The empire seems unassailable, but the empire is weak - and precisely because of its imperial ambitions So argues Walden Bello's provocative new book, which systematically dissects the strategic, economic and political ожхвб dilemmas confronting America as a consequence of its quest for global domination An award-winning development expert, Bello shows how, despite the enormity of the US defence budget, American forces are already overextended, a condition bound to intensify as each local Victory' breeds simmering resistance and new confrontation He points to the empire's looming economic breakdown, the result of its gargantuan military costs, record-breaking budget deficits, and exploitative trade and investment relations with developing countries On the political front, he warns of the bitter disillusionment mounting around the world in response to Americas failure to champion liberal democracy Everywhere America goes, crony capitalism, hostile coercion, and gross inequalities of income eat away at expectations of justice and inclusion A clear and prophetic examination, "Dilemmas of Domination" reveals a not-too-distant future in which the empire's hidden weaknesses will yield fatal challenges to American supremacy Формат: 15,5 см x 23,5 cм Автор Walden Bello.  Издательство: Zed Books, 2005 г Мягкая обложка, 272 стр ISBN 1 84277 693 2 Язык: Английский.

Переводчик: Liz Savage The modern women's movement has often found itself fighting to free women from the burden of expectation that accompanies women's caring activities However, the situation is changing and feminists recognize care increasingly as an important part of human existence, not necessarily opposed to independence ожхгт and self-realization In this significant new contribution to the debate, Selma Sevenhuijsen argues that a new acceptance of a broader feminist ethic of care signifies not only a redistribution of paid labour and caring activities among men and women but also a whole new understanding of standard liberal concepts of justice and morality Putting the concept of care under the spotlight and questioning its implications is ultimately to question what democratic citizenship really means Формат: 15,5 см x 23,5 см Автор Selma Sevenhuijsen.  Издательство: Routledge, 1998 г Мягкая обложка, 208 стр ISBN 0-415-17082-6 Язык: Английский.

The presidency was neither designed nor expected to act in concert with the American people; the Framers intended Congress to represent the popular will Thanks in part to public outrage at Congressional abuses of power, Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson led mass movements that forced major changes in the presidency, electoral politics, and ожхгх national policy Contemporary presidents are elected on the promise of being the direct representative of the people There is an implicit deal between the president and voters: election to office in return for responsiveness to voter concerns As The Policy Partnership shows, this relationship has been crumbling for some time Presidents frequently break campaign promises and make unpopular decisions, while the public rarely bands together to demand attention to policy concerns Many people simply do not vote; political elites take advantage of this indifference to advance their own agendas Bruce Buchanan explores the presidential elections of the last half-century to answer pressing questions created by this situation: What has become of the policy relationship potential created by presidential elections? To what degree do candidates and presidents take voter policy concerns into account before and after elections? How much influence do voters really have on presidential policy? What can be done to increase voter participation and presidential responsiveness? The central question of democratic politics comes down to the relationship between popular electoral choices and public policy: if voters can't influence what government does, then what is the point of democracy?

Poland is a country which sporadically hits the headlines of the Anglo-Saxon world It has suffered the dubious distinction of being wiped off the political map in 1795, to be resurrected after the First World War, only to suffer apparent annihilation during the Second and reduction to satellite status of the Soviet Union, to emerge in the van of resistance ожхдь to Soviet domination during the 1980s Yet the history of Poland remains comparatively little known This book offers a primarily political outline of its turbulent and complex past, from medieval times to the present day, and is the only brief history of the country available in English The pre-1795 Polish state had become a byword for political weakness before its erasure from the map; yet from the fifteenth to the seventeenth century it was one of the dominant forces of central and eastern Europe It was also the scene of a remarkable experiment in consensual, constitutional politics, in an area embracing much of not only what is present-day Poland, but also Lithuania, Ukraine and Belarus Under foreign rule in the nineteenth century, different patterns of political, economic and social development accentuated regional differences, and the emergence of several mutually antagonistic ethnic and linguistic nationalisms undermined the traditions of the pre-partition Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth The book traces Poland's painful rebirth after the First World War, the achievements and failings of the inter-war Polish state, and the traumatic ordeal of the Second World War Finally, it describes how Polish society was altered by - and how it responded to - forty-five years of communism The book ends with a review of Poland's emergence from that experience and its search for a new direction Формат: 13,5 см x 21,5 cм Авторы Hubert Zawadzki Jerzy Lukowski.  Издательство: Cambridge University Press, 2004 г Мягкая обложка, 318 стр ISBN 0-521-55917-0 Язык: Английский.
