Britské impérium
ISBN: 9788025739501 / Czeski / 2022 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ferguson líčí historii Britského impéria od 16. do 21. století. Impérium, které v době svého vrcholu ovládalo čtvrtinu světové populace, čtvrtinu zemského povrchu a téměř všechny oceány, se příznivě podepsalo na vývoji Spojených států a Kanady, Indie, Afriky, Austrálie, Nového Zélandu, východní Asie a Číny. Podle Fergusona impérium neožebračovalo národy, které se ocitly pod jeho nadvládou, ale naopak zajišťovalo jejich ekonomický blahobyt tím, že díky této nadvládě byly tyto země politicky stabilní. Idea svobody odlišovala impérium...

Věž a náměstí
ISBN: 9788025730478 / Czeski / 2019 / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Britský historik Niall Ferguson, autor řady vysoce oceňovaných publikací (naposledy např. Civilizace), ve své nové práci analyzuje podoby mocenského vlivu. Jednu – vertilkální, hierarchickou – charakterizuje metafora věže; druhou – horizontální, založenou na síti vztahů – zase obraz náměstí. Autor zkoumá jejich historický vývoj i koexistenci. V historických knihách je patrnější ona vertikální struktura, na jejímž vrcholu stáli králové a papežové, ale to neznamená, že by horizontální sítě společenských vztahů byly záležitostí moderní...

Vzestup peněz
ISBN: 9788025703373 / Czeski / 2011 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Britský historik Niall Ferguson (*1964) je profesorem na Harvardově univerzitě. Většina jeho prací, jež v západní Evropě vzbudily nebývalý zájem, je věnována hospodářským a sociálním dějinám 19. a 20. století. Největší pozornost prozatím vzbudila jeho kniha o příčinách první světové války (Nešťastná válka). V ní přišel s kacířskou tezí, že mocensko-politické vztahy v roce 1914 neeskalovaly kvůli německé agresivní, velmocenské politice, nýbrž kvůli nekompromisním postojům Velké Británie.

High Financier: The Lives and Time of Siegmund Warburg

"Prodigiously researched but also splendidly written-clear and vivid and precise." --The Wall Street Journal Drawing on more than ten thousand hitherto unavailable letters and diary entries, bestselling author Niall Ferguson tells the story of Siegmund Warburg, a complex man who was as much a psychologist, a politician, and an actor-manager as a banker. An obsessive perfectionist with an aversion to excessive risk, Warburg-and the S. G.

Paper and Iron: Hamburg Business and German Politics in the Era of Inflation, 1897-1927
ISBN: 9780521470162 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 556 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few economic events have had the impact of German hyperinflation in 1923, still remembered as a root cause of Hitler's rise to power; yet in recent years historians have defended the inflationary policies adopted after 1918. Niall Ferguson takes a different view. He argues that inflation was an economic and political disaster, and that alternative economic policies could have stabilized the German currency in 1920. To explain why these were not adopted, he points to long-term defects in the political institutions of the Reich from the 1890s. The book therefore not only reveals the Wilhelmine...

Shock of the Global: The 1970s in Perspective
ISBN: 9780674061866 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From the vantage point of the United States or Western Europe, the 1970s was a time of troubles: economic "stagflation," political scandal, and global turmoil. Yet from an international perspective it was a seminal decade, one that brought the reintegration of the world after the great divisions of the mid-twentieth century. It was the 1970s that introduced the world to the phenomenon of "globalization," as networks of interdependence bound peoples and societies in new and original ways. The 1970s saw the breakdown of the postwar economic order and the advent of floating currencies...

How did the West overtake its Eastern rivals? And has the zenith of Western power now passed?

Yet now, Ferguson shows how the Rest have downloaded... Western civilization's rise to global dominance is the single most important historical phenomenon of the past five centuries.

The Cash Nexus
ISBN: 9780465023264 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Conventional wisdom has long claimed that economic change is the prime mover of political change, whether in the age of industry or Internet. But is it? Ferguson thinks it is high time we re-examined the link-the nexus, in Thomas Carlyle's phrase-between economics and politics. His central argument is that the conflicting impulses of sex, violence, and power are together more powerful than money. Among Ferguson's startling claims are: - Nothing has done more to transform the world economy than war, yet wars themselves do not have primarily economic causes. - The present age of economic...
