Když se v roce 2016 stal vítězem amerických prezidentských voleb Donald Trump, spousta Američanů i lidí po celém světě se uklidňovala odolností amerického systému a stabilitou jeho institucí. Do čela světové velmoci se možná dostal narcistní psychopat, demokracie však nestojí na osobnostech, nýbrž na pevném systému vah a protivah, nezávislých úřadů a institucí s dlouhou a váženou tradicí, tradovalo se mezi západními novináři a komentátory. Jako jedna z mála kritizovala tento přístup Masha...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) On February 21st 2012, five members of an obscure feminist post-punk collective called Pussy Riot staged a performance in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour.

The performance lasted only 40 seconds but it resulted in two-year prison sentences for three of the performers - and has turned Pussy Riot into one of the most well-known and important protest movements of the last five years. This necessary and timely book is...
