Law and Order: Street Crime, Civil Unrest, and the Crisis of Liberalism in the 1960s
ISBN: 9780231115131 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Law and Order offers a valuable new study of the political and social history of the 1960s.

Ultimately, the legacy of law and order was a political world in which the grand ambitions of the Great Society gave way to grim expectations. In the mid-1960s, amid a pervasive sense that American society was coming apart at the seams, a new issue known as law and order emerged...

Debating the 1960s: Liberal, Conservative, and Radical Perspectives
ISBN: 9780742522138 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Debating the Reagan Presidency
ISBN: 9780742561403 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The presidency of Ronald Reagan has become a Rorschach Test for politicians and citizens alike. Conservatives see the Reagan era as the high-water mark for their movement, in much the same way that many progressives view FDR's presidency as the pinnacle of liberalism. Liberals maintain that the rosy Reagan legacy is based largely on myth, and that in fact his eight years as president did serious harm to the country. This book gives due attention to the controversy surrounding the Reagan presidency, and will provide a balanced, objective view of the 40th president's foreign and domestic...
