Economic Crises and the Breakdown of Authoritarian Regimes
ISBN: 9780521744386 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Why do some authoritarian regimes topple during financial crises, while others steer through financial crises relatively unscathed? In this book, Thomas B. Pepinsky uses the experiences of Indonesia and Malaysia and the analytical tools of open economy macroeconomics to answer this question.

ISBN: 9780776606408 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Criminology as Peacemaking
ISBN: 9780253206596 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Criminology has traditionally been a military science, a science of war. "The criminal element" is the enemy. Repression and restraint are the primary tools of criminal justice, and criminologists study how to make those tools effective in the "war on crime." We are beginning to realize that this is a war against ourselves and one that we are losing. Our inability to make peace with crime and criminals is reflected in the paucity of our daily personal relations, where we live by domination and discipline, where forgiveness and mercy are seen as naive surrender to victimization. The... Criminology has traditionally been a military science, a science of war. "The criminal element" is the enemy. Repression and restraint are the prim... |
