ISBN: 9780199216352 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

While these contingent, short-term factors relate to the personalities of office holders, the overall political agenda, and the majority situation in parliament, there are several structural factors which are relatively uniform across modern...
