Insurgent Collective Action and Civil War in El Salvador
ISBN: 9780521811750 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Elisabeth Wood's account of insurgent collective action in El Salvador is based on oral histories gathered from peasants who supported the insurgency and those who did not, as well as on interviews with military commanders from both sides. She explains how widespread support among rural people for the leftist insurgency during the civil war in El Salvador challenges conventional interpretations of collective action. Those who supplied tortillas, information, and other aid to guerillas took mortal risks and yet stood to gain no more than those who did not.

Nationalist Mobilization and the Collapse of the Soviet State
ISBN: 9780521806701 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 522 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study examines the process by which the seemingly impossible in 1987--the disintegration of the Soviet state--became the seemingly inevitable by 1991. It provides an original interpretation of not only the Soviet collapse, but also of the phenomenon of nationalism more generally. Probing the role of nationalist action as both cause and effect, Beissinger utilizes extensive event data and detailed case studies from across the U.S.S.R. during its final years to elicit the shifting relationship between pre-existing structural conditions, institutional constraints, and event-generated...

ISBN: 9780521663397 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Do people in new democracies that are undergoing market reforms turn against these reforms when the economic adjustment is painful? The conventional wisdom is that they will. According to "economic voting" models, citizens punish elected governments for bad economic performance. The contributors to this collection, in contrast, begin with the insight that citizens in new democracies may have good reasons to depart from the predictions of economic voting.
