Free Download Tom Holert, "Politics of Learning, Politics of Space: Architecture and the Education Shock of the 1960s and 1970s" English | ISBN: 3110710943 | 2021 | 128 pages | PDF | 10 MB How the relationships between education and outer space have developed historically is exemplified in an incisive way by the decades that followed the "Sputnik shock" of 1957. The wake-up call that resulted from the Soviet space program set the global landscape of learning in motion. New schools and universities came into being against the backdrop of the reform euphoria and mood of catastrophe. At the same time, traditional pedagogical concepts were severely called into question―including the call to do away with institutions of education. What is shown in the architectures of learning is not only a politics of space, but also the educational shock that intensively shook up the global societies of the 1960s and 1970s, while they were gradually being transformed into knowledge societies.  Free Download Edoardo Mollona, "Politics and Rhetoric of Italian State Steel Privatisation: A Gramscian Analysis " English | ISBN: 1138344435 | 2022 | 200 pages | PDF | 5 MB The globally spreading privatisation wave that occurred in the 1990s deeply changed the structure of economic institutions worldwide. This turmoil overturned not only economic institutions, but shared cultural and societal institutions as well.  Free Download Michael A. Baer, Malcolm E. Jewell, Lee Sigelman, "Political Science in America: Oral Histories of a Discipline" English | 2014 | pages: 257 | ISBN: 0813150884 | PDF | 29,6 mb Few academic disciplines have recorded their own origins and development in an organized way. The American Political Science Association, in cooperation with Pi Sigma Alpha, the political science honor society, and the University of Kentucky, have undertaken an extensive oral history project, the aim of which is to trace and record the growth of the discipline. The program has made it possible to amass hours of interviews with women and men who have influenced the study of political science.  Free Download André Freire, Marco Lisi, Ioannis Andreadis, "Political Representation in Times of Bailout: Evidence from Greece and Portugal" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1138106739, 1138939021 | EPUB | pages: 152 | 1.2 mb Since 2008 many European states have experienced significant challenges in adapting to austerity, and political actors within these states have made significant changes in their discourses and practices. This book explores the short-term impact of the sovereign debt crisis on aspects of political representation in Greece and Portugal, two of the countries that have been the most severely affected. It provides the most systematic examination to date of the attitudinal change of voters and elites regarding participation and representation, and of the legitimacy of the political system in two of the bailed-out Eurozone states. By examining the congruence between elites and voters, the shift in the patterns of competition, and the position of both citizens and representatives on the main issues, the studies contribute towards a reassessment of the validity of the responsible party model and of theories about democratic accountability. By relying on original mass and elite surveys conducted both before and after the bailouts, the volume helps us understand how the EU/IMF intervention has affected partisan alignments in Greece and Portugal, as well as the differences and similarities in the way political elites and civil society have adapted to severe austerity. This book was originally published as a special issue of South European Society & Politics.  Free Download Peter Mair, Jacques Thomassen, "Political Representation and European Union Governance (Journal of European Public Policy Series)" English | 2010 | ISBN: 0415582946, 0415849993 | EPUB | pages: 146 | 1.2 mb This book confronts and discusses different conceptions of political representation with respect to their application to the system of multi-level governance in the European Union. Political representation is an essentially contested concept. Its meaning has evolved with the development of representative democracy at the level of the nation state, and normative theories of political representation often evolved as a reflection on developing practices rather than the other way around.  Free Download Laleh Khalili, "Political Prisons & Policing Middle East" English | 2010 | ISBN: 1849040583, 1849040575 | PDF | pages: 320 | 1.2 mb The emergence of the modern Middle East has been accompanied by a concentration of coercive power in the state. Although the region has encompassed numerous Mukhabarat (secret police) states, extensive policing and carceral regimes, and widespread use of torture and spectacular punishments, and although its prisons and policing practices are regularly condemned by human rights organisations, surprisingly few analyses explore the emergence of these grim institutions. This volume is the first to examine systematically practices of policing and incarceration in the modern Middle East, the emergence of modern policing and prisons and their continued predominance. It offers a useful lens through which the complexity of state power and the contours of popular contentious politics can be read.  Free Download Manuel Couret Branco, "Political Economy for Human Rights " English | ISBN: 0367728273 | 2020 | 154 pages | PDF | 4 MB Over time there has been a miscommunication between mainstream economics and human rights that has paved the way to a justificatory ideology that validates the submission of human rights to the logic of market capitalism. This book shows how the discourse of mainstream economics is intrinsically opposed to the strengthening of human rights and outlines the principles upon which a human rights-based political economy can be built.  Free Download Ricardo Ferreira, "Policy Design in the Age of Digital Adoption: Explore how PolicyOps can drive Policy as Code adoption in an organization's digital transformation" English | 2022 | ISBN: 1801811741 | PDF | pages: 332 | 9.6 mb A proven methodology to build a PolicyOps function and public policy design frameworks for digital adoption, supporting your organization's journey into new paradigms and service models such as Cloud, SaaS, CaaS, FaaS, and DevOps |
