The Algerian Civil War, 1990â "1998
ISBN: 9780231119962 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The civil war in Algeria shows no sign of imminent resolution. Yet little has been written about the conflict, its various participants, and the opinions of Algerians--indeed, even about what exactly is being fought over. Restrictions on movement within Algeria have severely limited the ability of foreign journalists to analyze these issues, and there has been a paucity of firsthand accounts of how the conflict has played out across Algeria. Now, one of Europe's leading authorities on contemporary Algerian politics has gained the kind of access necessary to present a clear, evenhanded...

Violence of Petro-Dollar Regimes: Algeria, Iraq, Libya
ISBN: 9780199327676 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. During the 1970s, owing to their oil 'rents', Algeria, Iraq and Libya all seemed engaged in a swift modernization process. Oil was the godsend that would enable these states to catch up economically. Algeria was a Mediterranean dragon, Libya an emirate, and Iraq the rising military power of the Arab world. From a political perspective, progressive socialism suggested that profound changes were underway: women's liberation, urbanization, education for all, longer life expectancy and so on. A few decades later, the disillusion is a cruel one. The sense of wealth led these countries to undertake...
