From the Arab uprisings to the indignados movement and the global Occupy sit-ins, recent protests and civil unrest have sparked new debates about political organisation, media representation and the nature of contemporary citizenship.

Muted Modernists: The Struggle Over Divine Politics in Saudi Arabia
ISBN: 9780190496029 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Analysis of both official and opposition Saudi divine politics is often monolithic, conjuring images of conservatism, radicalism, misogyny and resistance to democracy. Madawi Al-Rasheed challenges this stereotype as she examines a long tradition of engaging with modernism that gathered momentum with the Arab uprisings and incurred the wrath of both the regime and its Wahhabi supporters. With this nascent modernism, constructions of new divine politics, anchored in a rigorous reinterpretation of foundational Islamic texts and civil society activism are emerging in a context where authoritarian...

Youth are often seen as emblematic of this crisis--frequently represented as uninterested in political life, ill-informed about current-affairs, and unwilling to register and vote. By Any Media Necessary offers... The participatory politics and civic engagement of youth in the digital age. Read Online at connectedyouth.nyupress.org There... |

Jazzman Chronicles Volumes I-X: Commentaries on American Politics 2000-2014
ISBN: 9780692514061 / Angielski / Miękka / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the Supreme Court decision that overturned an election and handed George W. Bush the presidency, Jack Random adjusted his focus from fiction to political commentaries. The first volume of the Jazzman Chronicles was an indictment of the two-party system, a system designed to serve the elite by negating the power of the people. It is a system paid for and controlled by corporate interests. It offers the appearance of choice but when both parties collect contributions from the same corrupt well, what choice do we really have? In the succeeding years, American democracy has become even more...

Our votes matter
ISBN: 9781515324799 / Angielski / Miękka / 94 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. #OurVotesMatter #OurVotesMatter by Eric Scott is a timely, and relevant text which serves to effectively reach into the African American community to disclose the power each voter possesses, and encourage them to harness that power to secure eventual change in the nation, particularly in areas which affect them directly. Various voting campaigns, and legal initiatives have fallen short of securing the return on voter activity which is a true representation of Black minorities. Why is this? One may ask. In this book Eric Scott candidly speaks to his community, in a relatable voice to expose...

World Democracy: through a global referendum
ISBN: 9781519583352 / Angielski / Miękka / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For those who want democracy established worldwide, it would be a fairly simple matter to conduct a global referendum, using the Internet. The Internet-based referendum has already begun (see voteworldparliament.org), but eventually, the governments of all nations should pass a UN resolution, take over the voting process and conduct the global referendum in segments in tandem with national elections and using official voters' lists (so that there is little or no voter fraud). A strong mandate from such a world vote would legally and politically compel the creation of a directly-elected,...

The book - "Narendra Modi And Naga Peace Accord" - is one of the most current Indo-Naga political development stories.

The NNC leaders had done this after Indian leaders' unresponsive attitudes to their wanting to live as a free Nation. Whether one likes it or not, the decision of NNC leaders at that...

No Shortcuts: Organizing for Power in the New Gilded Age
ISBN: 9780190624712 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The crisis of the progressive movement is so evident that nothing less than a fundamental rethinking of its basic assumptions is required. Today's progressives now work for professional organizations more comfortable with the inside game in Washington DC (and capitols throughout the West), where they are outmatched and outspent by corporate interests. Labor unions now focus on the narrowest possible understanding of the interests of their members, and membership continues to decline in lockstep with the narrowing of their goals. Meanwhile, promising movements like Occupy Wall Street and Black...
