The main area of sustained populist growth in recent decades has been Western Europe, where populist parties have not only endured longer than expected, but have increasingly begun to enter government. Focusing on three high-profile cases in Italy and Switzerland - the Popolo della Liberta (PDL), Lega Nord (LN) and Schweizerische Volkspartei (SVP) - Populists in Power is the first in-depth comparative study to examine whether these parties are indeed doomed to failure in office as many commentators have claimed.

"Before I decided to write this book, I had only read the Constitution in grade school, and had only heard of the Federalist papers. I'd never given much thought to either. I didn't realize the importance of those documents. I didn't write this book for the scholars. I didn't write it for the pundits. Hell, truth be known I wrote it for myself. Once I had read about and studied our founding, I could never be silent again. My friends and family will vouch for that. You'll find no footnotes, no fancy literary gimmicks, just one blue collar man's view of what he learned from his journey through...

The author outlines his case for what is wrong with America, and the corrections that must be made if disaster is to be averted.

Ironically, it is being threatened by the very voices that push it most. Supposedly Fascism was stopped with the defeat of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Franco''s Spain, Salazar''s Portugal, Papadopoulos Greece, Pinochet''s Chile and Suharto''s Indonesia. How has America lined itself up with these regimes? The commonality that links them is a protofascist model that link them are recognizable patterns of national behavior. I am chilled when I see the patterns that clearly indicate a merger of corporate and governmental policies. True it is a thin...

The Devolution of Jihadism: From Al Qaeda to Wider Movement
ISBN: 9781453746646 / Angielski / Miękka / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the almost nine years that the United States has engaged in a concerted counterterrorism effort against the jihadist movement, jihadists have adapted to the pressure. While the al Qaeda core has been contained, regional groups have embraced the ideology and now use the al Qaeda brand to attract support. This decentralization is a sign that jihadism has been weakened as a strategic force.

Migration, Belonging, Alienation
ISBN: 9783639298376 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this monograph I explore the question of how migrants of a specific social and ethnic group construct narratives of their experiences of belonging, alienation and citizenship. My intention here is to reverse the order of looking at questions of migrant belonging and alienation within the nation-state. Instead of theorizing who can belong and how migrants should belong, I asked migrants to tell me about their perceptions of belonging, how they belong or how they are alienated as migrant citizens. Migration and its implications would then be among the most pressing dilemmas of the...

High-Speed Society: Social Acceleration, Power, and Modernity
ISBN: 9780271034171 / Angielski / Miękka / 313 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Everywhere, life seems to be speeding up: we talk of "fast food" and "speed dating." But what does the phenomenon of social acceleration really entail, and how new is it? While much has been written about our high-speed society in the popular media, serious academic analysis has lagged behind, and what literature there is comes more from Europe than from America. This collection of essays is a first step toward exposing readers on this side of the Atlantic to the importance of this phenomenon and toward developing some preliminary conceptual categories for better understanding...

These essays, all of which were published in The Review of Politics, the majority during the 1940s and 1950s, reflect four major tenets of the classical realist tradition: an obligation to confront large and difficult questions about international politics, a recognition of the fundamentally tragic nature of relations among humans and states, a rejection of historical optimism, and a belief in practical morality.

Islam, Politics, and the End Times
ISBN: 9780982644379 / Angielski / Miękka / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As we move quickly toward the time of Christ's return, many things have to fall into place. Among them, the time must be ripe within society to not only birth a one-world government, but a ruler to rule over it. Once this ruler - the Antichrist - begins his climb to the top of the leadership heap, the Tribulation is not that far behind. Of course, societal changes must also occur in order to create favorable conditions to which the Antichrist will enter. Many of these changes are currently taking place throughout the world, guided by the politics of the United States, as well as nations...
