Описание: Eight Centuries of Financial Folly. Throughout history, rich and poor countries alike have been lending, borrowing, crashing and recovering their way through an extraordinary range of financial crises. Each time, the experts have chimed, `this time is different` - claiming that the old rules of valuation no longer apply and that the new situation bears little similarity to past disasters. This book proves that premise wrong, covering sixty-six countries across five continents. This is a comprehensive look at the varieties of financial crises, and guides us through eight astonishing centuries of government defaults.

Описание: Who built Stonehenge? Why did the pharaohs build the pyramids? Did Richard III kill the princes in the tower? Could the Titanic have been saved? Did Hitler murder his niece? PRAIFOR UNSOLVED MYSTERIES OF HISTORY "Like a sleuth, Aron pieces together the possible answers ...It's an engaging way to learn more about history and the new evidence that sheds light on long-standing theories." Daily Press "Aron has produced a fascinating and judicious description of historical mysteries from the Neanderthals to Gorbachev. His entertaining account of historical controversies will leave every reader the wiser about the past." Jack F. Matlock Jr., former U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union "With unerring good sense and in well-paced prose, Paul Aron solves as best he can the major who-done-its, did-it-happens, and did-it-have-to-happens of world history. Unsolved Mysteries of History should keep readers engaged well into the night." Adam Potkay, author, A Passion for Happiness

Автор: Janet S. K. Watson Название: Fighting Different Wars ISBN: 0521831539 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780521831536 Издательство: Cambridge Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 124610 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: The popular idea of the First World War is a story of disillusionment and pointless loss. This vision, however, dates from well after the Armistice. Here, Janet
Watson separates out wartime from retrospective accounts and contrasts war as lived experience - for soldiers, women and non-combatants - with war as memory, comparing men's and
women's responses and tracing the re-creation of the war experience in later writings.
Using a wealth of published and unpublished wartime and retrospective texts, Watson
contends that participants tended to construct their experience - lived and remembered - as either work or service. In fact, far from having a united front, many active participants were
in fact 'fighting different wars', and this process only continued in the decades following peace. Fighting Different Wars is an interesting, richly textured and multi-layered book which will
be compelling reading for all those interested in the First World War.

Автор: Harootunian Harry D. Название: Marx After Marx: History and Time in the Expansion of Capitalism ISBN: 0231174802 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780231174800 Издательство: Wiley Рейтинг: Цена: 41250 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book deprovincializes Marx and the West`s cultural turn by returning to the theorist`s earlier explanations of capital`s origins and development, which followed a trajectory beyond Euro-America to Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Marx`s expansive view shows how local circumstances, time, and culture intervened to reshape capital`s system of production in these regions. Harootunian strips contemporary Marxism of its cultural preoccupation by reasserting the deep relevance of history.
