Free Download Taufik Abdullah, "Indonesia: Towards Democracy"
English | 2009 | pages: 661 | ISBN: 9812303650, 9812303669 | PDF | 6,8 mb
This book traces the beginning of the process of nation-formation, the struggle for independence, the hopeful beginning of the new nation-state of Indonesia only to be followed by hard and difficult ways to remain true to the ideals of independence. In the process Indonesia with its sprawling archipelago and its multi-ethnic and multi-religious nation has to undergo various types of crisis and internal conflicts, but the ideals that have been nurtured since the beginning when a new nation began to be visualized remain intact. Some changes in the interpretation may have taken place and some deviations here and there can be noticed but the literal meaning of the ideals continues to be the guiding light. In short this is a history of a nation in the continuing effort to retain the ideals of its existence.

Free Download John Clarke, Dave Bainton, Noémi Lendvai, "Making Policy Move: Towards a Politics of Translation and Assemblage"
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1447313372, 1447313364 | EPUB | pages: 224 | 1.0 mb
Responding to increasing interest in the movement of policies between places, sites and settings, this timely book presents a critical alternative to approaches centred on ideas of policy transfer, dissemination or learning. Written by key people in the field, it argues that treating policy’s movement as an active process of ‘translation’, in which policies are interpreted, inflected and re-worked as they change location, is of critical importance for studying policy. The book provides an exciting and accessible analytical and methodological foundation for examining policy in this way and will be a valuable resource for those studying policy processes at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels. Mixing collectively written chapters with individual case studies of policies and practices, the book provides a powerful and productive introduction to rethinking policy studies through translation. It ends with a commitment to the possibilities of thinking and doing ‘policy otherwise’.

Free Download Seiichi Masuyama, "Towards a Knowledge-Based Economy: East Asia’s Changing Industrial Geography"
English | 2003 | pages: 333 | ISBN: 9812301798, 9812301801 | PDF | 7,5 mb
The evolution of the information and communciations technology (ICT) paradigm is shifting the basis for economic activity from material and labour inputs to knowledge and information inputs, spawning the knowledge-based economy. In East Asia, it is evident that the emergence of the knowledge-based economy is disrupting the flying-geese pattern of development and creating a new industrial geography. This book gives a picture of the shifting industrial geography in the region based on accounts of the status of the knowledge-based economy in ten individual East Asian economies. For some economies the increased production of ICT equipment and services is the pathway to the knowledge-based economy and even to leapfrogging ahead of more advanced economies. Other economies are focused on putting in place the physical and institutional infrastructure to connect to electronic networks and avoid the digital divide. For yet others, the emergence of the knowledge-based economy is expanding their role in the region, adding the role of ICT hub.

Free Download Further Towards a Conquest of the Paranormal: Notes Concerning UAP, UFOs, Extra-Terrestrials, Cryptids, & Other Miscellaneous Phenomena By Ansir Levi
2019 | 160 Pages | ISBN: 1080471588 | PDF | 2 MB
Is the Loch Ness Monster real? What about other water-cryptids? Is there any such thing as a Sasquatch or Yeti? Do large cats and demonic black dogs roam the English countryside? What are the sinister Black Eyed Children and the shadow beings that terrify so many? Are vampires real? Is lycanthropy plausible? Do UFOs exists and if so, what are they? In this follow-up to the seminal first work of ‘Towards a Conquest of the Paranormal’, Ansir Levi here turns his attention away from hauntings and the activities of spirits. Focussing now upon the phenomena of cryptids, mythical beings, and UFOs, Levi here further develops his profound hypothesis as to the nature of such and provides the answers to the questions above. Levi’s study, like his earlier works and his musings that feature on the ‘Inquirers into the Strange’ podcast, is an indispensable asset in the arsenal of all who date to inquire into the paranormal and the truth as to the nature of our reality. For those who undertake practical investigations, Levi provides a framework of inquiry upon which to base their work. The overarching hypothesis of Levi is of equal value to all who take a philosophical approach, especially those who are open to the notions of Keel and Vallee.
