Urban Democracy
ISBN: 9783810019547 / Angielski / Miękka / 457 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Among social scientists consensus exists on urbanization as an indispensable aspect of social modernization.

By the end of the 21st century, again, a close link seems to exist between the...

ISBN: 9789814279895 / Angielski / Twarda / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Manitoba Politics and Government: Issues, Institutions, Traditions
ISBN: 9780887557194 / Angielski / Miękka / 462 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Manitoba has always been a province in the middle, geographically, economically, and culturally. Lacking Quebec s cultural distinctiveness, Ontario s traditional economic dominance, or Alberta s combustible mix of prairie populism and oil wealth, Manitoba appears to blend into the background of the Canadian family portrait. But Manitoba has a distinct political culture, one that has been overlooked in contemporary political studies. "Manitoba Politics and Government" brings together the work of political scientists, historians, sociologists, economists, public servants, and journalists to...
