ISBN: 9780199682218 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

In their introductory and concluding chapters the Editors argue that...

A Century of Fiscal Squeeze Politics: 100 Years of Austerity, Politics, and Bureaucracy in Britain
ISBN: 9780198779612 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume identifies and compares 'fiscal squeezes' (major efforts to cut public spending and/or raise taxes) in the UK over a century from 1900 to 2015. The authors examine how different the politics of fiscal squeeze and austerity is today from what it was a century ago, how (if at all) fiscal squeezes reshaped the state and the provision of public services, and how political credit and blame played out after austerity episodes. The analysis is both quantitative and qualitative, starting with reported financial outcomes from historical statistics and then going behind those numbers to...

Japanese Education Reform: Nakasone's Legacy
ISBN: 9780415232838 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Japanese education system has attracted increasing attention over the past 20 years, largely due to the belief that it has been central to Japan's economic growth. However, many have felt that the system is by an inability, or perhaps even on an incapacity, to change. This study challenges these contentions. It examines the reform policies implemented by Prime Minister Nakasone during the 1980s and argues that, not only has the system changed considerably as a result of Nakasone's work, but it continues to do so.

Dealing with Disaster in Japan : Responses to the Flight JL123 Crash
ISBN: 9780415456623 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The flight JL123 crash involved the largest loss of life for any single air crash in the world. 520 people, many of whom had been returning to their ancestral home for the Obon religious festival, were killed; there were only four survivors. The book highlights the media coverage of anniversary events and the Japanese books and films about the crash; the very particular memorialization process in Japan, alongside Japanese attitudes to death and religion; it points out in what ways this crash both reflects typical Japanese behaviour and in what ways the crash is unique. Christopher P. Hood is...

When the Party's Over: The Politics of Fiscal Squeeze in Perspective
ISBN: 9780197265734 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 277 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The politics of cutting public spending or raising taxes (or both) has dominated politics in many democracies in recent years. A new era of conflict has developed, with old political alignments being tested and new battles emerging over whose expectations are to be disappointed and who should be blamed for fiscal squeeze.
Do parties who cut spending always go down to defeat in elections? Are there 'best practice' cases that every government should follow when it has to cut spending or raise taxes to balance its public finances? Such issues have mainly been analysed from an economic or... The politics of cutting public spending or raising taxes (or both) has dominated politics in many democracies in recent years.
