ISBN: 9780333778845 / Angielski / Twarda / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Instead, the book aims to generate a reflective attitude, allowing Jewish-Israelis to explore how they may divest themselves of Zionist identities by engaging with dissident...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. ?Though Britain's descent from global imperial power began in World War II and continued over the subsequent decades with decolonization, military withdrawal, and integration into the European Union, its foreign policy has remained that of a Great Power.
