The Finno-Ugric Republics and the Russian State
ISBN: 9780415919777 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a comprehensive survey of the peoples who speak Finno-Ugric languages and have titular republics or autonomous regions within the post-Soviet Russian federation. Their languages have set them apart from their Turkic and Russian neighbours, and helped preserve their distinct identity, including their animist religious practices. Little has previously been available in English on these peoples, as information on the subject was screened by Soviet censors.
The principal threat now facing the Finno-Ugrians is as much environmental as political: communism has gone, but exploitation of... This is a comprehensive survey of the peoples who speak Finno-Ugric languages and have titular republics or autonomous regions within the post-Soviet ...

ISBN: 9780199287741 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For a given electoral system, what average number and sizes of parties and government duration can we expect? Predicting Party Sizes is the first book to make specific predictions that agree with world averages. The basic factors are the numbers of seats in the assembly and in the average electoral district.

Hence, combined with known particularities of a...

Making Social Sciences More Scientific: The Need for Predictive Models
ISBN: 9780199534661 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In his challenging new book Rein Taagepera argues that society needs more from social sciences than they have delivered. One reason for falling short is that social sciences have depended excessively on regression and other statistical approaches, neglecting logical model building. Science is not only about the empirical 'What is?' but also very much about the conceptual 'How should it be on logical grounds?' Statistical approaches are essentially descriptive, while quantitatively formulated logical models are predictive in an explanatory way. Making Social Sciences More Scientific contrasts...
