ISBN: 9781511540285 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9781137563576 / Angielski / Twarda / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

"The Economist" recommended it as a model for other African states struggling to develop their resources in the best interests of their peoples.
But where was change to start? At the bottom in building resistance committees, or at the top in tough negotiations with the IMF? How was it to continue? Was it in the restructuring of the national army, in increasing respect for human rights, in the reform of education, in tackling... Yoweri Museveni battled to power in 1986.
