Scandinavian Design: Alternative Histories
ISBN: 9781847889126 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Scandinavian design is still seen as democratic, functional and simple, its products exemplifying the same characteristics now as they have done since the 1950s. But both the essence and the history of Scandinavian design are much more complex than this. Scandinavian Design: Alternative Histories presents a radically new assessment, a corrective to the persistent mythologies and reductive accounts of Scandinavian design. The book brings together case studies from the early twentieth century to today. Drawn from fields as diverse as transport, engineering, packaging,...

As we are faced with recurring crises--financial, migration, climate, etc.--there is a need to reconsider public theology as both a practice and a field of study. By discussing public statements made by Christians faced with different kinds of crisis, this book contributes to the development and understanding of public theology.

War and the Politics of Identity in Ethiopia: The Making of Enemies and Allies in the Horn of Africa
ISBN: 9781847016126 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Images of war, narratives of suffering and notions of ethnicity are intrinsically linked to Western perceptions of Africa. Filtered through a mostly international media the information of African wars is confined to narrow categories of explanation emerging from and adapted to a Western history and political culture. This book aims at reversing this process; to look at war and suffering from the point of view of those who fight it and suffer through it. In doing so it reveals that the simplistic models explaining contemporary wars in Africa which are reproduced in a Western discourse are...

Designing Worlds: National Design Histories in an Age of Globalization
ISBN: 9781785331558 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From consumer products to architecture to advertising to digital technology, design is an undeniably global phenomenon. Yet despite their professed transnational perspective, historical studies of design have all too often succumbed to a bias toward Western, industrialized nations. This diverse but rigorously curated collection recalibrates our understanding of design history, reassessing regional and national cultures while situating them within an international context. Here, contributors from five continents offer nuanced studies that range from South Africa to the Czech Republic, all...

Making Sense of Baltic Democracy
ISBN: 9783838320175 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The book explores the advance of democracy in the Baltic states over a period of 15 years. By and large successful cases of democratisation the three states had to cope with several problematic legacies, some of which prompted Estonian and Latvian authorities to impose restrictive and controversial citizenship laws. The book also explores the ties between institutions and ordinary people. Aided by the New Europe Barometer, an extensive collection of data covering more than a decade of democratisation, this multi-level study reveals that democracy as an ideal enjoys increasing support, but...

The African Garrison State: Human Rights & Political Development in Eritrea Revised and Updated
ISBN: 9781847010698 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When Eritrea gained independence in 1991, hopes were high for its transformation. In two decades, however, it became one of the most repressive in the world, effectively a militarised -garrison state-. This comprehensive and detailed analysis examines how the prospects for democracy in the new state turned to ashes, reviewing its development, and in particular the loss of human rights and the state's political organisation. Beginning with judicial development in independent Eritrea, subsequent chapters scrutinise the rule of law and the court system; the hobbled process of democratisation,...

Stability and Change in the Modern Middle East

In this ground-breaking book, aimed at a new generation of students, Kjetil Selvik and Stig Stenslie provide a new introduction to the contemporary Middle East, using topical questions about stability and change as a way of interrogating the politics, economics and history of the region. How have regimes from North Africa to the Gulf perpetuated themselves in spite of the weakness of the Western-style state, the Islamist trend, and the destabilising effects of war and terrorism? What strategies have states used to control their societies, and how have both states and societies adapted over...
