An Analysis of John C. Calhoun's a Disquisition on Government: A Disquisition on Government
ISBN: 9781912303199 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nineteenth century American politician John C. Calhoun was unashamedly pro-slavery. So it may seem strange that his 1850 text, intended to defend that practice, is so respected today and Calhoun's vision later helped civil rights activists create a fairer democratic system.

An Analysis of Jack A. Goldstone's Revolution and Rebellion in the Early Modern World
ISBN: 9781912128501 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Understanding why revolutions take place when they do, and as they do, is important in itself. Understanding how they are rooted in the societies they upend - and the ways in which those societies share crucial similarities - is arguably even more so. The enduring influence of Jack Goldstone's Revolution and Rebellion lies as much in the challenge that it issues to the long-dominant model of 'western exceptionalism' (the idea that it was early modern Europe's distinctive history that launched it on the path to world domination) as it does in the book's persuasive account of revolutions...

An Analysis of John C. Calhoun's A Disquisition on Government
ISBN: 9781912128730 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nineteenth-century American politician John C. Calhoun occupies a paradoxical place in the history of political thought - and of critical thinking. On one hand, he is remembered as a committed advocate of slavery, consistently espousing views that are now considered indefensible and abhorrent. On the other, the political theories that Calhoun used to defend the social injustice of slavery have become the basis of the very systems by which modern democracies defend minority rights. Despite being crafted in defence of a system as unjust as slavery, the arguments that Calhoun expressed...

An Analysis of Bernard Bailyn's The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution
ISBN: 9781912128471 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 90 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Historians of the American Revolution had always seen the struggle for independence either as a conflict sparked by heavyweight ideology, or as a war between opposing social groups acting out of self-interest. In The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution, Bernard Bailyn begged to differ, re-examining familiar evidence to establish new connections that in turn allowed him to generate fresh explanations. His influential reconceptualizing of the underlying reasons for America's independence drive focused instead on pamphleteering – and specifically on the actions...

An Analysis of Joan Wallach Scott's Gender and the Politics of History: Gender and the Politics of History
ISBN: 9781912128662 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Joan Scott's work has influenced several generations of historians and helped make the topic of gender central to the way in which the discipline is taught and studied today. At root a new way of conceptualizing capitalist societies, Scott's theories suggest that gender is better understood as a social construct than as a biological fact. Scott's original contribution to the debate, however, stems in her use of the critical thinking skill of analysis to understand how the arguments of earlier generations of historians were built in order to fully grasp both their structure and the...
