For Party or Country: Nationalism and the Dilemmas of Popular Conservatism in Edwardian England
ISBN: 9780195062380 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

In this thorough analysis, Coetzee examines the condition of the Conservative party during the two decades preceding World War I--a transitional period for the party, marked by the foundation of an unprecedented number of conservative pressure groups. Cecil's...

By contrast to this global, virtual, gift economy that has developed...
