The author links politics, ecology and literature, by using the literary device of appropriation to raise awareness of ecology and...

The authors' point of departure is that institutions are primarily conflict-solving entities guiding individual and social behaviour, and that they set out to be much more than rules of the game: institutions do (and should) evolve and...

The Watchdog Still Barks: How Accountability Reporting Evolved for the Digital Age
ISBN: 9780823279333 / Angielski / Twarda / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Perhaps no other function of a free press is as important as the watchdog role--its ability to monitor the work of the government.

This need has become especially clear in recent months, as the American press has come under virulent direct attack for carrying out its watchdog duties. This book presents a study of how this most important form of journalism, watchdog reporting, came of age in...
