Shifting Sands: The United States in the Middle East
ISBN: 9780231166720 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Joel S. Migdal revisits the approach U.S. officials have adopted toward the Middle East since World War II, which paid scant attention to tectonic shifts in the region. After the war, the United States did not restrict its strategic model to the Middle East. Beginning with Harry S. Truman, American presidents applied a uniform strategy rooted in the country's Cold War experience in Europe to regions across the globe, designed to project America into nearly every corner of the world while limiting costs and overreach.

Strong Societies and Weak States: State-Society Relations and State Capabilities in the Third World
ISBN: 9780691010731 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why do many Asian, African, and Latin American states have such difficulty in directing the behavior of their populations--in spite of the resources at their disposal? And why do a small number of other states succeed in such control? What effect do failing laws and social policies have on the state itself? In answering these questions, Joel Migdal takes a new look at the role of the state in the third world. Strong Societies and Weak States offers a fresh approach to the study of state-society relations and to the possibilities for economic and political reforms in the third...

During the last quarter century, peasant participation in politics has increased markedly in parts of Latin America and Asia. Why the poor and vulnerable peasant population has chosen to leave the confines of the village for political activity and at times for sustained revolution is the question this book explores. The author draws on informal interviews and observation of peasants in Mexico and India and on fifty-one community studies of peasants in Asia and Latin America compiled by ethnographers in the last forty years. He suggests that severe economic crises have driven... During the last quarter century, peasant participation in politics has increased markedly in parts of Latin America and Asia.

Boundaries and Belonging: States and Societies in the Struggle to Shape Identities and Local Practices
ISBN: 9780521068499 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Although state borders remained remarkably stable during the Cold War, states have disappeared, splintered, consolidated, and blended into supra-national communities since 1990. The articles in this volume look at borders in a new way, stressing their impermanence. In particular, the study looks at the tension between the actual borders of states and other virtual boundaries that frame human communities. The contributors include political scientists, sociologists, geographers, and historians who write about the Middle East, Europe, China, North America, and Asia.
