Zero Hours: Conceptual Insecurities and New Beginnings in the Interwar Period
ISBN: 9782875741035 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 315 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. To cut off time and seal away the past, to proclaim a new beginning in the present and project a better future onto tomorrow and thus to make history is a key signature of modern social, political and cultural discourses. In this book, this practice is represented through the metaphor of the Zero Hour, which alludes to the wish to rebuild the past in the face of a crisis-ridden present characterised by growing conceptual insecurity, hoping for a more stable future. Indeed, the ever-new construction of our past, sequenced and ordered in explanatory narratives, bears witness to a future that...

The European Public Sphere: From Critical Thinking to Responsible Action
ISBN: 9789052012544 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The development of a fully fledged European Public Sphere is seen by many as the solution to the legitimation crisis the European Union is suffering today. It is conceived as a space in which a Europe-wide debate about the current economic, social and political crises can take place and through which solutions can be developed.
This book proposes a new multi-disciplinary approach to discuss the European Public Sphere, arguing that it should be approached as a complex and interlinking concept, considering issues such as identity, citizenship building and multi-level governance structures...

Focusing on European cultural and intellectual history in first half of the twentieth century, The Space of Crisis investigates how notions of crisis and changing perceptions of space influenced the way Europeans imagined themselves, their past and their future.

Imagining Europe as a Global Player: The Ideological Construction of a New European Identity Within the Eu
ISBN: 9789052017921 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 265 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book argues that since 2001 the primary discursive context for articulating a European identity within the EU has increasingly become the idea of a common foreign policy for Europe. A new grand project of making Europe a true global player is being put forth and it is this as yet unrealised ideal that European citizens are now being asked to identify with.
The author examines European identity as an ideological construction that seeks to elicit emotional and affective attachment to the political project of realising a utopian ideal. He unravels the discourses involved in the... This book argues that since 2001 the primary discursive context for articulating a European identity within the EU has increasingly become the idea of...

Eu Enlargement: Current Challenges and Strategic Choices
ISBN: 9782875740670 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Successive enlargements of the EU have constituted major events in the history of European integration. They affect the Union s institutions, policies and policy-making processes and, because of the impact of these changes, enlargements have often been controversial. The major enlargement in 2004, which took the EU from 15 to 25 member countries, was followed by Romanian and Bulgarian membership in 2007 and Croatian membership in 2013.
It is often argued that there is now enlargement fatigue, and progress towards the next step seems slow. However, a number of countries, especially in the...

Operation Welcome: How Strasbourg Remained a Seat of European Institutions, 1949-1979
ISBN: 9782875743169 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. An accepted narrative within European integration history is that the issue in which city to locate European Community headquarters was decided on the intergovernmental level between the member states. In the present volume, this view is expanded with the example of Strasbourg by arguing that activity at the local level is an important factor as well.
A set of highly active political and associational local agents used different strategies to consolidate the city s position against competing cities and the European Communities. This study finds that a highly specialised group of municipal...

Re-Inventing Western Civilisation: Transnational Reconstructions of Liberalism in Europe in the Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9781443860499 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The volume shows that neoliberalism concerns a tradition carried by a network of people, who understood themselves as liberals (and at times as neoliberals) and who sought to create societies based on individual freedom and a free market economy. It also shows that neoliberalism emerged as a transnational and multilingual phenomenon and that it cannot be reduced to one doctrine or practice. The book will enrich the reader's knowledge of the political-ideological landscapes and developments in various European regions and countries, in addition to transforming the overall picture of European...
