War, Revenue, and State Building
ISBN: 9780801475863 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In a relatively short time, the American state developed from a weak, highly decentralized confederation composed of thirteen former English colonies into the foremost global superpower.

That revenue financed America's participation in two global wars as well as the building of a modern system of social welfare programs. Sheldon D....

The Populist Response to Industrial America: Midwestern Populist Thought
ISBN: 9780674690516 / Angielski / Miękka / 1976 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Populism--progressive or retrogressive force? Posing this question, Norman Pollack draws on Populist manuscripts and newspapers, the best evidence for the movement's response to industrialism. In the words of farmers and workers, Populism springs to life, ceasing to be an abstraction. The author concludes that the movement, while primarily agrarian, had significant intellectual and labor support; accepting industrialization, it opposed capitalistic industrialism as alienating and degrading the individual. In this intellectual history--based on data most of which has been ignored--the author...
