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...

Niall Ferguson's acclaimed bestseller on the highs and lows of Britain's empire Once vast swathes of the globe were coloured imperial red and Britannia ruled not just the waves, but the prairies of America, the plains of Asia, the jungles of Africa and the deserts of Arabia. Just how did a small, rainy island in the North Atlantic achieve all this? And why did the empire on which the sun literally never set finally decline and fall?

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.

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...

Civilization: The West and the Rest
ISBN: 9780143122067 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Western civilization's rise to global dominance is the single most important historical phenomenon of the past five centuries.
How did the West overtake its Eastern rivals? And has the zenith of Western power now passed? Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson argues that beginning in the fifteenth century, the West developed six powerful new concepts, or "killer applications"--competition, science, the rule of law, modern medicine, consumerism, and the work ethic--that the Rest lacked, allowing it to surge past all other competitors. 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 Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World: 10th Anniversary Edition

A richly original look at the origins of money and how it makes the world go round Niall Ferguson follows the money to tell the human story behind the evolution of our financial system, from its genesis in ancient Mesopotamia to the latest upheavals on what he calls Planet Finance. What's more, Ferguson reveals financial history as the essential backstory behind all history, arguing that the evolution of credit and debt was as important as any technological innovation in the rise of civilization. As Ferguson traces the crisis from ancient Egypt's Memphis to today's Chongqing, he...

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...

At the beginning of the twentieth century, globalizing, booming economies married to technological breakthroughs seemed to promise a better world for most people.

The Great Degeneration: How Institutions Decay and Economies Die
ISBN: 9780141975238 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. The decline of the West is something that has long been prophesied. Symptoms of decline are all around us today: slowing growth, crushing debts, aging populations. But what exactly is amiss with Western civilization? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues, is that our institutions - the intricate frameworks within which a society can flourish or fail - are degenerating. In this book, Ferguson provides a powerful indictment of an era of negligence and complacency.

The Pity of War: Explaining World War I (Revised)
ISBN: 9780465057122 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 608 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In The Pity of War, Niall Ferguson makes a simple and provocative argument: that the human atrocity known as the Great War was entirely England's fault. Britain, according to Ferguson, entered into war based on naive assumptions of German aims--and England's entry into the war transformed a Continental conflict into a world war, which they then badly mishandled, necessitating American involvement. The war was not inevitable, Ferguson argues, but rather the result of the mistaken decisions of individuals who would later claim to have been in the grip of huge impersonal forces.That the...

In this biography, based on more than 10,000 hitherto unavailable letters and diary entries, Niall Ferguson returns to his roots as a financial historian to tell the story of Siegmund Warburg, whose philosophy of finance was the antithesis of the debt-fuelled, algorithm-driven banking of our own time.
