Free Download The Politics of Developmentalism: The Midas States of Mexico, South Korea and Taiwan By John Minns 2006 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 1403986118 | PDF | 1 MB Minns argues that the industrial transformations of Mexico, South Korea and Taiwan were based on the existence of powerful developmentalist states in each. It explores the origins of such states and their dynamics and connects the form of autonomy they enjoy within their countries to the policies they pursue. However, these so-called economic 'miracles' have not and, it is suggested here, cannot continue indefinitely. The causes of the decline of the developmentalist state are already present at its birth.  Free Download The Politics of Chaos in the Middle East By Olivier Roy 2008 | 172 Pages | ISBN: 0231700326 | PDF | 1 MB In this book, Olivier Roy, Europe's leading scholar of political Islam, argues that the consequences of the ''war on terror'' have artificially conflated conflicts in the Middle East in such a way that they appear to be the expression of a widespread ''Muslim anger'' against the West. But in reality, there are no us and them. Instead, the West faces an array of ''reverse alliances'' that operate according to their own logic and dynamics.The West supports General Musharraf in Pakistan, yet his military intelligence services are in league with the Taliban; in Iraq, the United States shores up a government that is closely linked to its archenemy, Iran; Iraqi Kurds, allies of the Americans, give sanctuary to the PKK, an adversary of a fellow NATO member, Turkey; while the Saudis support the Iraqi Sunnis who are, in turn, fighting Coalition forces. As if these issues were not complicated enough, the ever-worsening Shia-Sunni divide now threatens to disrupt any future strategic planning the West might attempt in the Middle East.Roy unravels the complexity of these conflicts in order to better understand the political discontent that sustains them. He also emphasizes that the war on terror should not be regarded merely as a geopolitical blunder committed by a fringe group of neoconservatives. It is instead a problematic outgrowth of our deeply rooted Western perceptions of the Middle East, including the belief that Islam, rather than politics, is the overarching factor in these conflicts, thus explaining the West's support for either would-be secular democrats or (more or less) benign dictators. Roy's conclusion argues that the West has no alternative but to engage in a dialogue with the political forces that truly matter& mdash;namely the Islamo-nationalists of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Free Download The Political Thought of Jacques Ranciere: Creating Equality By Todd May 2008 | 209 Pages | ISBN: 0748635866 | PDF | 1 MB Equality is not something that we must expect from state institutions. It is something that we must both presuppose and create through collective action. Todd May investigates in depth the philosophical grounds, ethical implications and practical consequences of the view of active equality. Much more than a commentary, his book is a powerful analysis of what politics means and how we can recover the project of political action. Jacques Ranciere This is the first single-authored book in any language devoted entirely to the thought of Jacques Ranciere. It focuses on his central political idea that a democratic politics emerges from the presupposition of equality. Todd May examines and extends this presupposition, offering a framework for understanding it, placing it in the current political context, and showing how it challenges traditional political philosophy and opens up neglected political paths. May aims to show that Ranciere's view offers both hope and perspective for those who seek to think about and engage in progressive political action.Key Features * offers a thorough discussion of Ranciere's concept of equality * provides an ethical framework in which to ground his politics * shows why Ranciere is crucial for political reflection today * both translated and untranslated works are referred to  Free Download The Political Theory of John Gray By John Horton, Glen Newey 2006 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 041536647X | PDF | 1 MB John Gray is one of today's most brilliant, bestselling and controversial political thinkers.

Free Download The Political Economy of World Mass Migration: Comparing Two Global Centuries By Jeffrey G. Williamson 2004 | 64 Pages | ISBN: 0844771813 | PDF | 1 MB In this study, Jeffrey G. Williamson examines the political economy of immigration backlash and immigration policy in two global centuries. The first, between 1820 and World War I, was a proglobal environment, characterized by booming trade, labor, and capital markets. It was followed by an antiglobal and autarchic retreat between 1914 and 1950. Williamson finds that the second global century has moved to reclaim world integration in trade and capital markets, but immigration policy in high-wage countries has not tried to reclaim an open stance.

Free Download David Howarth, Tal Sadeh, "The Political Economy of Europe's Incomplete Single Market" English | 2013 | ISBN: 0415851343 | EPUB | pages: 168 | 1.8 mb Progress in European market integration over the past two decades has come at the expense of growing flexibility, or differentiation, in the laws that govern the Single Market (SM) as well as the way that these laws are implemented. This volume examines how the completion of the SM has been held back in the varied implementation of European Union competition policy, variation in national policies on services, corporate law, telecommunications, energy, taxation, and gambling, and the EU's uneven transportation network. These sectors and issue-areas form the frontier at which the main political struggles over the future shape of the SM have taken place in the past decade. Broadly, progress in economic integration in the EU has been complicated by the need to reconcile perfections to the SM with the global competitiveness of European producers, and efficiency gains with ideational and normative concerns. In services, there is a clash between deregulation and social policy. Financial integration has had to reconcile different institutionalized views among the member states about the place of finance in the economy and society. The SM notion supposedly entails a concrete set of substantive policy commitments that form the basis of the 'ever closer union'. However, increasing differentiation in the SM undermines the identification of the EU's core constitutional commitments.
