Free Download Terry Cox, "Challenging Communism in Eastern Europe: 1956 and its Legacy"
English | 2008 | pages: 461 | ISBN: 0415449286, 0415495679 | PDF | 2,5 mb
Marking the 50th anniversary of events in 1956, that were a major turning point in the history of communist-ruled Eastern Europe, this book contains a selection of some of the most recent research on those momentous events and their memory and legacy. The book contains edited contributions from historians and social scientists from Hungary, Poland the UK and the USA. Their contributions are the fruit of research which has only been possible since 1989. In the years since the fall of the communist regimes the state archives have been opened to researchers and it has been possible to collect the testimony of eye-witnesses without fear of repression and censorship. The outcome of 1956 led to Poland embarking on its own distinctive version of communist rule. Meanwhile 1956 in Hungary saw the first society-wide attempt to overthrow a ruling communist regime – only to be put down by Soviet military intervention. In both countries the events of 1956 had lasting repercussions for society and its relationship with the communist regime. In retrospect they can be seen as paving the way for the eventual fall of the communist regimes in East Central Europe in 1989.

Free Download Elizabeth J. Perry, "Challenging the Mandate of Heaven: Social Protest and State Power in China"
English | 2002 | pages: 377 | ISBN: 0765604450, 0765604442 | PDF | 16,2 mb
Social science theories of contentious politics have been based almost exclusively on evidence drawn from the European and American experience, and classic texts in the field make no mention of either the Chinese Communist revolution or the Cultural Revolution – surely two of the most momentous social movements of the twentieth century. Moreover, China’s record of popular upheaval stretches back well beyond this century, indeed all the way back to the third century B.C. This book, by bringing together studies of protest that span the imperial, Republican, and Communist eras, introduces Chinese patterns and provides a forum to consider ways in which contentious politics in China might serve to reinforce, refine or reshape theories derived from Western cases.

Free Download Jonathan S. Davies, "Challenging governance theory: From networks to hegemony"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 184742614X, 1847426158 | EPUB | pages: 200 | 1.3 mb
Theories heralding the rise of network governance have dominated for a generation.Yet, empirical research suggests that claims for the transformative potential of networks are exaggerated.This topical and timely book takes a critical look atcontemporary governance theory, elaborating a Gramscian alternative.It argues that, although the ideology of networks has been a vital element in the neoliberal hegemonic project, there are major structural impediments to accomplishing it. While networkingremains important, the hierarchical and coercive state isvital for the maintenance of social order and integral to the institutions of contemporary governance.Reconsidering it from Marxist and Gramscian perspectives, the book argues that the hegemonic ideology of networks is utopian and rejects the claim that there has been a transformation from ‘government’ to ‘governance’.This important book has international appeal and will be essential reading for scholars and students of governance, public policy, human geography, public management, social policy and sociology.
