ISBN: 9781138383944 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Between 1974 and 1977, as part of a wider attempt by Prime Minister Michael Manley's regime to carry out a democratic reformist strategy of development, the three largest sugar estates in Jamaica were converted into worker-managed farms.

What explains the actions and performance of alliances? Within alliances, how do members' actions and performance vary, and what explains that variance?

The author argues that though we understand a great deal about the military hardware of the Warsaw Pact, little is known about its reliability, cohesiveness, and the distribution of military burden within...

ISBN: 9780367019983 / Angielski / Twarda / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

They focus on the potential for diversifying the country's energy economy--now based almost exclusively on oil--by examining alternative sources, particularly natural gas, coal, and geothermal and solar resources. The extent to which Mexico's energy base is diversified, they assert, will determine the country's ability both to meet internal energy...
