The Pflp's Changing Role in the Middle East
ISBN: 9780714643298 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a history of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a violent Marxist faction within the Palestinian national movement. Taking a politically neutral approach, Cubert explores the group's background and provides an analysis of its aims, methods, structures and the factors responsible for its decline.

Parliaments and Pressure Groups in Western Europe
ISBN: 9780714643861 / Angielski / Miękka / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Legislatures have one core defining function: that of giving assent to measures that, by virtue of that assent, are to be binding on society. In practice, they have usually performed other roles as well, such as debating measures or the conduct of public affairs. They have existed for centuries. They span the globe. Most countries have one; federal states have several. Commentators throughout the 20th century have bemoaned the decline of legislatures, yet the number shows no sign of declining; if anything, the reverse and their prominence has increased in the 1990s because of developments in...

ISBN: 9780714644196 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Kedourie has been variously described as an angry young man, a sceptic, a conservative, a pessimist, an imperialist, a Zionist, an anti-Zionist, an anti-Arab, and even starry-eyed about imperialism - all labels which attempt to categorize him but reveal nothing about the man or his work.

Of his own work, three pieces are included and one of his essays: The Jews of Babylon and Baghdad is published here for the first time.

Turkey - Anglo-American Security Interests, 1945-1952 : The First Enlargement of NATO
ISBN: 9780714648552 / Angielski / Twarda / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first enlargement of NATO in 1952, to include Turkey and Greece, integrated the eastern Mediterranean with west European strategic planning and consolidated the American presence in the region. At the end of the millennium, Turkey's inclusion in NATO seems natural, given Soviet pressure against the country in 1945-46 and its geostrategic position. Yet in the early post-war period this was not a foregone conclusion in the minds of policy-makers in Washington and, particularly, in London, despite Ankara's relentless efforts after 1947 to obtain an American security guarantee.

This volume examines geopolitics by looking at the interaction between geography, strategy and history. This book addresses three interrelated questions: why does the geographical scope of political objectives and subsequent strategy of states change? How do these changes occur?

The theories of Sir Halford Mackinder and Nicholas Spykman are examined in order to provide an analytical narrative for five case studies, four historical and one contemporary. Taken together these five case studies offer the prospect of converting... This volume examines geopolitics by looking at the interaction between geography, strategy and history.

The Resilience of Democracy: Persistent Practice, Durable Ideas
ISBN: 9780714680262 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. If the past is any guide, many of the new Third Wave democracies can be expected to fall by the wayside. Moreover, a significant part of the world's peoples do not enjoy democratic government. This volume brings together studies of many of the small number of previously established states that have retained and/or restored democracy despite, in many cases, formidable economic, social or political challenges. It seeks to establish common themes, whether or not they appear to fit a grand causal theory. It is, after all, the very adaptability of democratic systems that characterizes their...

Niccolo Machiavelli's the Prince
ISBN: 9780719041969 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. No text has attracted more controversy over the centuries than Machiavelli's The Prince. Placed on the Index of Prohibited Books by the Catholic Church in 1599, The Prince nevertheless proved to be the means by which Machiavelli came to be known throughout Europe, establishing his name as a byword for the cunning and unscrupulous politician. Written as the medieval world was giving way to the new dynamic of renaissance capitalism, The Prince embodies a whole series of vital issues that affect our understanding of modern politics, including power and morality, history and human nature,...

Knutsen introduces ideas on international relations expressed by thinkers from High Middle Ages to the present day and traces the development of four ever-present themes: war, peace, wealth and power.

Beginning with the roots of the state and the concept of sovereignty in the Middle Ages, the author draws upon the insights of outstanding political thinkers. Clearly and succinctly the...
