Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Leaders of political parties often have to choose between conflicting objectives, such as influence on policy, control of the government, and support among the voters. This book examines the behaviour of political parties in situations where they experience conflict between two or more important objectives. The volume contains a theoretical introduction and case studies of party leaders in Germany, Italy, France and Spain as well as six smaller European democracies. Each case focuses on the behaviour of one of several parties in situations of goal conflict, such as the 'historic compromise' in Italy, the 1982 Wende in West Germany, the making of the new Swedish constitution in the 1970s, and the termination of the Austrian 'black-red' grand coalition. In their conclusions, the editors discuss how such leadership decisions can be understood and examine the causes of different choices among party leaders.…

Pergamon International Library of Science, Technology, Engineering and Social Studies. 9.25"x6.5", 492 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. A technical and economic history delineating how three major aspects of geophysics evolved from simple scientific beginnings and came to impact on civilization in many diverse ways. Topics covered include the growth of geophysical exploration into a highly profitable international business, the opening of the American Arctic to modern science and industry, and the utilization of geophysics in military combat and nuclear arms control. In the closing chapter, over 40 noted earth scientists (including Sir Harold Jeffreys, Cecil Green, Frank Press, Roger Revelle, and J. Tuzo Wilson) denote their major contributions to this unique field. This book is the first to treat simultaneously the evolution of exploration geophysics and the allied sciences of seismology and oceanography as it occurred in three key countries - Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. An absorbing account for all practicing earth scientists and their families, investors in the industry, and persons interested in economic geology, public and world affairs, military warfare, the history of science and technology, environmental sciences and even outdoor adventure.

Condizione: Good. : Esta emocionante antología reúne en un solo volumen muchas de las mejores historias de guerra jamás escritas, tanto reales como ficticias. Desde la grandeza romántica de la época napoleónica hasta los horrores deshumanizadores de las dos guerras mundiales, desde Europa hasta África, la colección abarca dos siglos e incluso se extiende hacia el futuro. Incluye relatos de escritores de guerra famosos como Nicholas Monsarrat y Alistair MacLean, junto con autores más conocidos en otras áreas, como la aterradora imagen de H. G. Wells de Inglaterra bajo la amenaza de la invasión marciana y el misterio inquietante de Ambrose Bierce sobre la Guerra Civil estadounidense. La panorámica vista de los ejércitos enfrentados de Rusia y Francia en Borodino es descrita gráficamente por Tolstoi. En contraste, se presenta el drama personal de la historia de amor de H.E. Bates, Fair Stood the Wind For France, y la salvaje manía de la novela de realismo bélico, The Naked and the Dead de Norman Mailer. Esta variada y entretenida selección de historias y extractos, que reflejan la amplitud y profundidad de la experiencia humana en tiempos de guerra, proporciona una lectura estimulante y satisfactoria.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The period from 1960 to 2000 was one of remarkable growth and transformation in the world economy. Why did most of Sub-Saharan Africa fail to develop over this period? Why did a few small African economies succeed spectacularly? The Political Economy of Economic Growth in Africa, 1960-2000 is by far the most ambitious and comprehensive assessment of Africa's post-independence economic performance to date. Volume 1 examines the impact of resource wealth and geographical remoteness on Africa's growth and develops a new dataset of governance regimes covering all of Sub-Saharan Africa. Separate chapters analyze the dominant patterns of governance observed over the period and their impact on growth, the ideological formation of the political elite, the roots of political violence and reform, and the lessons of the 1960-2000 period for contemporary growth strategy.…
