ISBN: 9780802085207 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. No sport is as important to Canadians as hockey. Though there may be a great many things that divide the country, the love of hockey is perhaps its single greatest unifier.

The Lords of the Rinks documents the early years of hockey's professionalization and commercialization and the emergence of a fledgling NHL, from 1875 to 1936. As the popularity of...

Political Economy of Deng's Nanxun, The: Breakthrough in China's Reform and Development
ISBN: 9789814578387 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume is about the political economy of Deng Xiaoping's Nanxun (tour of South China), which was the most critical phase in China's reform and development since 1978. The first round of Deng's reform resulted in high growth through the 1980s. However, it created a messy half-reformed economy with many problems, including the Tiananmen incident. The immediate aftermath of the Tiananmen was collapse of economic growth and reform deadlock. To break out from this low-level "reform-growth trap", Deng decided to launch the Nanxun, not just to reignite the reform but also to complete China's...

Coast to Coast: Hockey in Canada to the Second World War
ISBN: 9780802095329 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. As an institution that helps bind Canadians to an imagined community, hockey has long been associated with an essential Canadian identity. However, this reductionism ignores the ways Canadians consume hockey differently based on their socio-economic background, gender, ethnicity, and location. Moreover, Canadian culture is not static, and hockey's place in it has evolved and changed. In Coast to Coast, a wide range of contributors examine the historical development of hockey across Canada, in both rural and urban settings, to ask how ideas about hockey have changed....

From the outset, scholars at the East Asian Institute (EAI)...

The Nanxun Legacy and China's Development in the Post-Deng Era

In the spring of 1992, Deng Xiaoping made an historical tour of South China, popularly known as the "nanxun" ("southern tour"). During the tour, he boldly called for more radical economic reform and further opening up of China.

Deng Xiaoping has left his own legacy for the country. The "nanxun" belongs to Deng, just as the 1911 revolution belongs to Sun Yat-sen and the communist...

In the last two decades of the 20th century, China stood out as the world's star performer in economic growth, thanks to the market-oriented reform that started in 1978.
