 Robert Chernomas, "Gatekeeper: 60 Years of Economics According to the New York Times" English | ISBN: 1594516820 | 2011 | 256 pages | EPUB | 518 KB The New York Times is possibly the most influential newspaper in the world. Because of this, it has become the topic of much debate about media bias, with some claiming that it is liberal and others that it is conservative. The Gatekeeper argues that this debate is misleading and that the New York Times can more accurately be characterised as supporting the interests of US corporations, which involves both liberal and conservative positions. Through examining the paper's coverage of key issues, including the 2008-2009 economic crisis, The Gatekeeper reframes the debate about the most venerable institution in US journalism.  Gene H.

Stephen Paul Haigh, "Future States" English | ISBN: 1138273678 | 2016 | 272 pages | EPUB | 468 KB Globalization consists of an interlocking array of political, economic, social, and cultural forces that challenge the traditional international order in two key ways. First, states historically had 'hard shells', by means of which they were capable of consolidating differences between 'inside' and 'outside' to the point where the latter could more easily be quarantined. Second, for closely-related reasons they were largely able to 'absorb' domestic society, such that the individual was less a citizen than a subject. But through globalizing processes these (dubious) attributes have been starkly exposed, which leads Haigh to ask, Whither the state under globalization? Insightful and well-written, this book is sure to spark lively debate while attempting to answer its central question.

 Rik van Berkel, "Frontline Delivery of Welfare-to-Work Policies in Europe: Activating the Unemployed " English | ISBN: 1138908371 | 2017 | 220 pages | EPUB | 716 KB Welfare-to-work or activation policies refer to programmes aimed at promoting the employability, labour-market and social participation of benefit recipients of working age. Frontline workers delivering these policies are conceived of as policy implementers, as policy makers, and as actors mediating politics in an arena where conflicting interests are at stake. Frontline work plays a crucial role in determining what welfare-to-work practically means and how it affects the lives of the people it targets. Yet few books have deliberatively focused on comparing what happens when frontline workers, some of whom are professional social workers, meet clients.

 From Post-Communism toward the third Millennium: Aspects of Political and Economic Development in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe from 2000-2005 ... Studies on Central and Eastern Europe) By Josette Bär (editor) 2011 | 270 Pages | ISBN: 3039117734 | PDF | 2 MB This volume presents an overview of the political and economic developments in Eastern and South Eastern Europe in the years 2000 to 2005. Unlike the Central European states that achieved EU membership in 2004 and 2007, the countries in this volume, Bulgaria being the exception, share but one characteristic: diversity. One could call the phenomenon of the region's variety and diversity the Eastern European pluralism of development. The essays present detailed analyses of the region's main problems: corruption and bribery on all levels of society; a lack of transparency of state-business relations; a distinct disinterest in international critique or, rather, a distinct insistence on sovereignty and the refusal to adapt to European humanitarian standards of ethnic and religious tolerance. The essays are based on unique source material from the countries under scrutiny. |
