This is a path-breaking study by leading scholars of comparative politics examining the internal transformations of dominant parties in both authoritarian and democratic settings. The principle question examined in this book is what happens to dominant political parties when they lose or face the very real prospect of losing? Using country-specific case studies, top-rank analysts in the field focus on the lessons that dominant parties might learn from losing and the adaptations they consequently make in order to survive, to remain competitive or to ultimately re-gain power.

The reason they are not exposed to it is that schools have not begun teaching them.

This three-book series explains the adult concepts of economics, leadership, and management in ways a child can understand. I taught my...

We can live over 100 years because our body cells are constantly replacing themselves. For instance, the hair and the nails continually regrow. Around every seven years, all the cells in the body are replaced. At the beginning, everyone is balanced, but over time, due to accidental injuries or improper movements, parts of the body become distorted. An unbalanced body is then developed. Then, all muscle coordination is working for the distorted body.

What Joseph does in his treatment is to help the patient to unlock the distorted parts, and to show them how to do movements with the...
