ISBN: 9781848138124 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Such opposition is being orchestrated by political parties, business, the private media and other social and cultural institutions and is linked to the "soft power" of US diplomacy. In recent years its activities have often appeared to challenge the democratic process itself....

Thucydides and US Foreign Policy Debates after the Cold War
ISBN: 9781599423845 / Angielski / Miękka / 62 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This thesis examines the reception of Thucydides History of the Peloponnesian War in US foreign policy debates since the end of the Cold War.
