Among these was the introduction of semi-democratic reforms that saw limited elections. Politics was reinventing itself from the top down at a rapid pace. The collapse of the USSR and the subsequent economic and social crisis in Russia radically changed forever the political landscape in this ountry. The multi-party system replaced the communist party domination. The rapidly developed social and property differentiation, the complexity and depth of a crisis, the ideological confrontation, the low level of the political culture and some other factors determined the diversity and instability of the multi-party system in Russia, including its left-wing spectrum. The Left Parties in Russia by Evgeny Pashentsev is a unique source for those who need documentary information and statistics on nine Russian political parties.

However, in reality, the European Union is not Kantian because it does not follow Kant`s essay on `Perpetual Peace: A Philosophical Sketch`. The EU has its own standing armies and also behave itself as a big creditor, which are in contrast to Kant`s preliminary article 3 and 4 stated that there should be no standing armies and no international debts. This book will explore the identity of the European Union as Kantian Neoliberalism and the existence of Kant`s Perpetual Peace in the 21st century by using case studies from the EU`s overall Military policies and its development policies. ····· 10361114471

Campbell was a mythologist who came to believe that all myths, irrespective of culture or societal differences, have certain key threads running through them. Campbell`s aim with this rhetorical tool therefore, was to show how in the different stories that are found in different cultures, there exist common key threads. This study took as its subject of analysis, a speech given by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah on the occasion of the inauguration of the Volta Dam project on 22 January 1966. Nkrumah is revered as one of the most influential people in the fight for the de-colonialization of Africa. This analysis aims to look at Nkrumah and using this specific speech as an example of his rhetoric, seek to judge whether he can be described as a Hero who embarked on and completed a successful quest by bringing the people of Ghana (a newly independent country) a boon . In other words, was Nkrumah a quest hero on a journey in search of progress and development for his newly independent, but underdeveloped nation ····· 10361113501
für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Students of Aristotle`s political thought wrestle with a deep tension. If friendship is the basis of community, Aristotle`s ideal community must be rather clannish and exclusive. It is an uncomfortable view of political life from the standpoint of the twenty-first century, both for liberals and liberalism`s critics. And many of Aristotle`s own positions, for example his strong criticism of Plato`s city in speech, do not seem to square with it. Is it the right picture This book argues that, from Aristotle`s perspective, a politics focused on virtue neither necessarily excludes persons who are not fully virtuous from politics nor coerces citizens who are not wholly virtuous into acting well. Aristotle makes debate and community feeling compatible by reconstructing tribal feelings (or associative emotions) into something politically capable. Debate is also transformed in the process by the special commitments one makes when entering into a political association. This, in brief, is Aristotle`s answer to liberals and their critics: A certain kind of community and a certain kind of debate make liberalism possible. ····· 10361113002
für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray This study examines Claude Ake`s analysis of the problem of political integration and its continuing relevance for contemporary Africa. One of his major works, A Theory of Political Integration, is discussed in the light of his conception of the conditions for achieving political integration in the new states in the immediate post-independence period. Focusing on Africa, the study discusses the complex web of violent conflict and wars over natural resources from the 1990s as an impediment to political integration in the continent. Epitomized by the erosion of the stateness of many African polities, a renewed salience of informal politics and an adaptation to diminished state presence and service provision, the post-Cold War conflict situations across Africa are significant departures from the Cold War experiences in the continent. This study examines the emergent political complex in the region and establishes how it feeds into the global struggles for natural resources as well as ongoing structures of imbalances characterizing the global flows of capital and Africa`s growing marginalization and poverty. ····· 10361112996
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray The monograph is devoted to the problems of origins, development and present condition of statehood. It also provides forecasts of political development in the coming decades. The book presents a new approach to the causes and models of the emergence of state and competing with it political forms (early state analogues) and new models of state evolution. Today in full swing are the processes of state`s nature and functions change and countries` integration into supranational communities. In the last chapter there are explained reasons of the inexplicable, at first glance, phenomenon: why modern states voluntarily reduce their sovereign prerogatives. Without analysis of the statehood genesis and development, it is impossible to understand the course of human history and current state of World System as well as the possible directions of its transformation. So we hope the book will interest broad audience, including specialists in globalization studies, political anthropology, philosophy, future studies, historical sociology, and political studies, as well as anyone interested in history and modern political problems and global trends. ····· 10361103057

The essays trace both the development of the Black Studies Movement, and the evolution of one of the discipline`s important scholar-practitioners Dr. Norman Harris. The essays are introduced by a prologue that establishes a framework consistent with way African people have traditionally made sense of the world. From there, Harris uses Karenga`s Nguzo Saba to organize the essays into three sections. The first section of essays is titled, `Kujichagulia and Literary Analysis ` the second section is titled `Nia: From Theory to Practice ` and the third section is titled `Imani: Situating 21st Century Learning.` Together, these essays chart a path from more or less traditional academic scholarship to forms of scholarship, advocacy and institution building that are the cornerstone of the Black Studies Movement. This is an important book for anyone wishing to understand the development of Africana Studies, and Black Intellectual History. ····· 10361102484

It argues for the importance of considering restorative justice as conceptually and historically prior to the possibility of retributive justice rather than the negation of one or the other, as well as advocate the potentially greater transformative power of the values of restorative justice in the context of post-conflict peacebuilding.

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Many scholars, elites and pastors are propelling the lie that Africa is poor because it is cursed. The fact that Africa is not coming out of her` poverty despite the billions pumped into the continent in terms of aid is luring many individuals to simplistically deduce that Africa`s poverty must be situated in a divine curse. Many individuals can not understand the fundamentals behind Africa`s poverty problematic because they are very ignorant of the implications of the global paradigm shift from liberal to neo-liberal capitalism and hence the poverty and injustices engendered` by this paradigm shift. Many scholars are giving liberal poverty solutions to a neo-liberal problematic. To make matters worse, some pastors and elites are propagating the deception that Africa is poor because of witchcraft, ancestral worship, occultism, blood shed, sexual sins etc. This argument is flawed because these vices are also rampant in rich western nations. This book situates Africa`s poverty and governance problematic in the neo-liberal imperative of creating slave states. The book shows that the so called African liberators and democrats are mere conduits of American neo-liberal interests. ····· 10361101698

Thehypothesis investigated in this study is that theethnopolitical conflict that led to the break up offormer Yugoslavia was the result of deliberatepoliticization of ethnicity. The model consists ofthree variables ethnic entrepreneurs as actors, andmass media and political rhetoric as their tools forpoliticization of ethnicity. Ethnic entrepreneurs,with a conscious interest in mobilizing ethnicity,are given this opportunity in transitional societiesin which politicized ethnicity has become the crucialprinciple of political legitimation. This studyseeks to explain how political leaders may turn intoethnic entrepreneurs and then draw upon existingnon-violent ethnic tensions and conflict (aphenomenon existing in every multiethnic society) togenerate ethnopolitical conflict.

Author presents a defense of Burke`s political philosophy against contemporary conservative scholars who have revised the originality of Burke`s thought in order to mold him into a modern conservative. It is argued that Burke`s conservatism is embedded in his defense of the existing institutions of the social order and his use of such conceptual tools as historicism, tradition, prescription, and prudence to justify this defense. Furthermore, author demonstrates the revisionist tendencies of modern conservatives and their attempt to marginalize Burke`s appeal to the aristocratic order as an intrinsic part of Burke`s conservatism. Finally, the fundamental differences between Burke`s conservatism and those of the revisionists are explored, demonstrating that Burke`s conservatism is antithetical to the claims of contemporary revisionists conservatism. ····· 10361101251

Moreover the initial steps that both parties took resemble each other charismatic leaders from popular media organizing anti-government rallies and starting debates on how the country is being governed wrongly. Reflecting onto the nationalist populism, both LAOS and ATAKA managed to create a radical rightist space in the Greek and Bulgarian societies, eventually to win seats in parliament.

In South Africa, the two terms are frequently used to describe political contestation within the ruling African National Congress (ANC)and the Tri-partite Alliance between the ANC, the South African Communist Party and the Congress of South African Trade Unions. However, what is behind the label Left` Writing about the Tri-partite Alliance is often focused on turf- and ideological battles. In this book, however, we seek to interrogate what these labels mean at the coal face of politics, in the Eastern Cape province. It will be argued that the Alliance Left is, in its practice, largely concerned with what insiders refer to as politics of influence`, rather than with politics of structural transformation`. This book should be read by students, researchers and others who want to understand the politics of the Tri-partite Alliance in South Africa.

Seither wirkte er in Wort und Schrift, in zahlreichen Vorträgen, in den Hauptstädten Europas für die ihm heilige Idee. Vaterland Europa ist der Appell eines überragenden, denkenden Künstlers, der zur Rettung des Kontinents und seiner Kultur zum Zusammenschluß der führenden Geister aufruft, da die führenden Staatsmänner Jahr um Jahr und Konferenz um Konferenz versagen. Was Huberman an positiven Gedanken zur Aufrichtung eines einheitlichen Europas vorbringt: das Niederreißen der Zollschranken, die Aufstellung eines einheitlichen Heeres, vieles andere noch ist von überzeugender Schlagkraft und, wenn er ausführt, daß die Hoffnung auf die Verwirklichung eines Einheitseuropas in viel geringerem Maße eine Utopie darstellt und ein weit weniger schwieriges Problem als die Aufrechterhaltung des gegenwärtigen verworrenen und in jeder Beziehung katastrophalen europäischen Zustandes, so leuchtet nichts mehr ein als diese Feststellung.

····· lezzter Preis 44.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Reflections as a classic text cannot be understood without analyzing it within its historical-philosophical context. On its historical side, it was written in order to defend the 18th century British political system against the omnipresent air of change in Europe. On its philosophical side, Reflections is an inside critique of the Enlightenment thought. Although Burke was by no means an anti-Enlightenment hero, he developed a criticism of the exaggerated role that the Enlightenment put on the concepts of reason, progress, and rights of man by replacing the abstract reason with practical reason, contextualizing the discourse of the rights of men with that of the rights of Englishmen, and excluding the concept of perfection from his theory of prudent reform. Whilst Burke was attacking to the Revolutionaries as metaphysicians, to the paper money and unimpeded monied interest as the tyranny of economists, to the infallible reason as the secular superstition, and to the extremely self-assured will to defame everything associated with the past and to recreate a new world from scratch in an abrupt process, he was directly launching a crusade to the very heart of the Enlightenment. ····· 1036192210

En este contexto, la confrontación política, económica, social y militar de las dos superpotencias, durante la Guerra Fría, les llevó a desarrollar una Guerra Secreta con el apoyo y fomento de acciones terroristas, golpes de estado, guerras de guerrillas, manipulación de elecciones y tráfico internacional de drogas en todo el globo.

Se va más allá de lo que el autor dijo de las diferentes civilizaciones, especialmente de esas de las que Huntington apenas dice nada, y se atreve a buscar nuevos datos para continuar la reflexión sobre ellas en el estilo en que él lo haría, pero sin renunciar a sus ideas, aunque es consciente de lo abiertas a matizaciones que son muchos de sus juicios. `Sé que es imposible la objetividad, aunque la busco.
