ISBN: 9781349394784 / Angielski / Miękka / 213 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05 has been widely seen as a historical turning-point.

Abandoning Keynes: Australia's Capital Mistake
ISBN: 9781349143528 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This analysis proposes a political explanation for the breakdown of Keynesian full employment in Australia. It taps into the current literature that examines the role of economic interests, ideas, and institutions, and, by taking issue with the arguments of anti-Keynesian economists, the book carries the argument that there was and is nothing inherently contradictory about Keynesian theory or much of its practice. Keynesianism, its imperfections notwithstanding, was overturned because of a powerful alliance of interests and ideas.

Churchill, Whitehall and the Soviet Union, 1940-45
ISBN: 9781349413348 / Angielski / Miękka / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. World War II threw Britain and the Soviet Union together as unlikely allies. This book examines British policy-makers' attitudes to cooperation with the USSR and shows how views of internal developments in the USSR and of Stalin himself influenced Churchill, the War Cabinet and the Foreign Office to believe that long-term collaboration was a desirable and achievable goal. In particular, it was assumed that a shared concern to prevent future German aggression would be a lasting bond. Such attitudes significantly shaped Britain's wartime policy towards the USSR, and for many individuals,...

ISBN: 9781349147212 / Angielski / Miękka / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For many companies, brands are now their most valuable assets - yet there is insufficient knowledge within business in general of legal systems that exist to allow brand owners to protect these assets. Equally, few trademark lawyers fully understand the commercial significance of these legal systems for the success of brand-based businesses. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, Trademarks divulges the legal enigma to the brand owner, and the business advantage of trademarking to the lawyer, whilst providing a unique insight into all aspects of trademarking for all those fascinated by this...

The Geneva Conference of 1954 on Indochina
ISBN: 9781349182909 / Angielski / Miękka / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Geneva Agreements of 1954 were widely welcomed. They ended a seven-year war in Indochina; gave France a dignified exit; averted wider conflict. In later years first Americans and Vietnamese, then Russians, Chinese, Cambodians and even Laotians tried to force Indochina into different patterns of their own devising. These new wars triggered by rejection of the Geneva compromise lasted longer, killed more people, did greater damage and achieved less - for everybody. Perhaps Churchill was right: jaw-jaw is better than war-war. Certainly this lively, first-hand, up-dated account of the Geneva...

Transition in the Baltic States: Micro-Level Studies
ISBN: 9781349253968 / Angielski / Miękka / 299 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Much has been written about the speed and complexity of the transition throughout Central and Eastern Europe and former parts of the Soviet Union. The focus has invariably been on the macro scale and often from the perspective of a single discipline. This book differs from others by concentrating on the micro level of change and doing so from a wide range of disciplinary perspectives, recognising that transformation processes are multiplex and require the linkages between the social, political, psychological, cultural and economic dimensions to be fully exposed and addressed.

Democracy: The Challenges Ahead
ISBN: 9781349257782 / Angielski / Miękka / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The bottom-line message of this book is democracy resurgent - but not triumphant. There are any number of conceivable anti-democratic threats and no prospect of ever achieving either a satisfactory or a permanent level of democracy in all countries and societies. Any lowering of the guard by democracy's defenders in academia or real-world politics risks the danger of democracy once again falling upon hard times or even regressing.
