Repainting the Little Red Schoolhouse: A History of Eastern German Education, 1945-1995
ISBN: 9780195112443 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first English-language study of GDR education and the first book, in any language, to trace the history of Eastern German education from 1945 through the 1990s. Rodden fully relates the GDR's attempt to create a new Marxist nation by means of educational reform, and looks not only at the changing institution of education but at something the Germans call Bildung--the formation of character and the cultivation of body and spirit. The sociology of nation-building is also addressed.

ISBN: 9780271036120 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Germany underwent two periods of dictatorial repression in the twentieth century, first under Hitler and the Nazis in the late 1930s and early 1940s and then under the communist German Democratic Republic from 1945 until the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.

ISBN: 9780803222366 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Featuring absorbing conversations with nine well-known authors, including poets Richard Howard and Gerald Stern, novelist Isabel Allende, and scholar-intellectual Camille Paglia, Performing the Literary Interview is the first in-depth look at this type of performance art. Interviews with poets, fiction writers, and...

Politics and the Intellectual: Conversations with Irving Howe
ISBN: 9781557535511 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents a compilation of Irving Howe's interviews during the last fifteen years of his life.

Others were originally published in such venues as "The New York Times", "The Jerusalem Post", and the PBS documentary "Arguing the World". Howe never organized...

Hamilton's Paradox: The Promise and Peril of Fiscal Federalism
ISBN: 9780521603669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As new federations take shape and old ones are revived around the world, a difficult challenge is to create incentives for fiscal discipline. A key question is whether a politically-motivated central government can credibly commit not to bail out subnational governments in times of crisis if it funds most of their expenditures. By combining theory, quantitative analysis, and historical and contemporary case studies, this book provides a new perspective on why different countries have had dramatically different experiences with subnational fiscal discipline.
