Joining a Prestigious Club

Maria Shagina

Joining a Prestigious Club

Brussels’s idea of a “wider Europe” implies that Europeanisation is not limited to EU member states. The EU can, so it claims, also exert impact beyond its borders. One of the channels of external EU influence is cooperation between Europarties and parties outside the Union. Through mutual visits and joint activities, non-EU parties become internationally socialised, i.e., are exposed to the Europarties’ norms as well as values, and experience the rules as well as practices that shape European...

Jazz, Rock, and Rebels

Uta G. Poiger

Jazz, Rock, and Rebels

In the two decades after World War II, Germans on both sides of the iron curtain fought vehemently over American cultural imports. Uta G. Poiger traces how westerns, jeans, jazz, rock 'n' roll, and stars like Marlon Brando or Elvis Presley reached adolescents in both Germanies, who eagerly adopted the new styles. Poiger reveals that East and West German authorities deployed gender and racial norms to contain Americanized youth cultures in their own territories and to carry on the...

It's Not Like I'm Poor

It's Not Like I'm Poor

The world of welfare has changed radically. As the poor trade welfare checks for low-wage jobs, their low earnings qualify them for a hefty check come tax time—a combination of the earned income tax credit and other refunds. For many working parents this one check is like hitting the lottery, offering several months’ wages as well as the hope of investing in a better future. Drawing on interviews with 115 families, the authors look at how parents plan to use this annual cash windfall to build up...

Institutions Count

What leads to national progress? The growing consensus in the social sciences is that neither capital flows, nor the savings rate, nor diffuse values are the key, but that it lies in the quality of a nation’s institutions. This book is the first comparative study of how real institutions affect national development. It seeks to examine and deepen this insight through a systematic study of institutions in five Latin American countries and how they differ within and across nations. Postal systems,...

In pivo veritas. Цитаты, афоризмы и другие заслуживающие внимания тексты из пражских ресторанов, трактиров и пивных

Damit beschäftigt sich Christian Wehrschütz in kritischen Hintergrund- und Erfahrungsberichten. Seine langjährige Tätigkeit als ORF-Korrespondent in Belgrad hat ihn an alle Brennpunkte des Balkans geführt. Gegen die Bezeichnung „Balkan-Experte“ wehrt er sich jedoch. Sein Buch hat er in...

Yet our nation has a proud history of great achievements: victory in World War II, our national highway system, welfare reform, the moon landing.We need more successes like these to reclaim government's legacy of competence. In If We Can Put a Man on the Moon, William Eggers and John O'Leary explain how to...

Ideologie, Identität, Repräsentation

Band 4 der Ausgewählten Schriften erörtert das Wechselspiel von Ideologie, Identität und Repräsentation. Neben grundlegenden Beiträgen, die den Stellenwert poststrukturalistischer Schlüsselkategorien verhandeln, widmen sich die Texte dem Prozess der konfliktären Herstellung von Repräsentationsregimen. Dabei gelingt es Hall, identitätsstiftende Repräsentationspraxen als umkämpft und herrschaftsmächtig durchsetzt zu theoretisieren, analytische Werkzeuge zu entwickeln, um die ideologischen...

I L.I.K.E. my job

Wie gelingt es, dass Menschen aus voller Überzeugung sagen können: „I like my job“? Das Erfolgskonzept, mit dem Reinhard Lindner das Beste aus Führungskräften und ihren Mitarbeitern hervorlockt, nennt sich L.I.K.E. und steht für so starke Werte wie Loyalität und Identifikation, aber auch für Kompetenz und Exzellenz. In Zeiten fluider Organisationen, wo vielfach projektbezogen agiert wird, klingen diese Werte vielleicht verstaubt. Loyalität meint jedoch ein hohes Commitment, in der Zeit, wo man...

Humanitarian Imperialism

Jean Bricmont

Humanitarian Imperialism

Since the end of the Cold War, the idea of human rights has been made into a justification for intervention by the world's leading economic and military powers—above all, the United States—in countries that are vulnerable to their attacks. The criteria for such intervention have become more arbitrary and self-serving, and their form more destructive, from Yugoslavia to Afghanistan to Iraq. Until the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the large parts of the left was often complicit...

How Social Movements (Sometimes) Matter

People protest to try to change the world, because they think they can help change the world, and sometimes they do. But not by themselves, and generally not just how and when they want. This incisive book explains how groups of ordinary individuals can affect the world, what makes it possible when it works, and why it sometimes doesn't go to plan. Digging into previous scholarship on social movements, David S. Meyer looks at the origins of social movements, how they contrast with...

How Did We Get Into This Mess?

How Did We Get Into This Mess?

Leading political and environmental commentator on where we have gone wrong, and what to do about it “Without countervailing voices, naming and challenging power, political freedom withers and dies. Without countervailing voices, a better world can never materialise. Without countervailing voices, wells will still be dug and bridges will still be built, but only for the few. Food will still be grown, but it will not reach the mouths of the poor. New medicines will be developed, but they will be...
