Описание: " Classical Greek Oligarchy thoroughly reassesses an important but neglected form of ancient Greek government, the "rule of the few." Matthew Simonton challenges scholarly orthodoxy by showing that oligarchy was not the default mode of politics from time immemorial, but instead emerged alongside, and in reaction to, democracy. He establishes for the first time how oligarchies maintained power in the face of potential citizen resistance. The book argues that oligarchs designed distinctive political institutions--such as intra-oligarchic power sharing, targeted repression, and rewards for informants--to prevent collective action among the majority population while sustaining cooperation within their own ranks. To clarify the workings of oligarchic institutions, Simonton draws on recent social science research on authoritarianism. Like modern authoritarian regimes, ancient Greek oligarchies had to balance coercion with co-optation in order to keep their subjects disorganized and powerless. The book investigates topics such as control of public space, the manipulation of information, and the establishment of patron-client relations, frequently citing parallels with contemporary nondemocratic regimes. Simonton also traces changes over time in antiquity, revealing the processes through which oligarchy lost the ideological battle with democracy for legitimacy. Classical Greek Oligarchy represents a major new development in the study of ancient politics. It fills a longstanding gap in our knowledge of nondemocratic government while greatly improving our understanding of forms of power that continue to affect us today. " --
Автор: Gosling Tony Название: The Siege of Heaven: How Breaking the Grip of Oligarchy Will Unleash the World`s Human Potential ISBN: 1634241789 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781634241786 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 34310.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Some say the arrival of the internet has made it impossible for governments and corporations to keep secrets from or otherwise bamboozle the public, but the truth is just the opposite. As the ownership of the mainstream media consolidates, so the new media barons have a much tighter grip on what is published, while journalists are removed ever further from the process. Tony Gosling worked as a reporter for the BBC and saw these changes taking place within the corporation, witnessing the organization turn from a positive force into a mouthpiece of an increasingly corrupt state and the tiny elite group that has controlled humanity for centuries. Never before seen in print, these articles reveal the hidden wiring of the Western Establishment. They point to the elusive positive side of what Tony sees as an inevitable, orchestrated WWIII and economic collapse. Each one offers, too, a vision of social justice where people and communities can properly fulfill their potential. Tony includes many reference articles, including a hidden history chronology from the dawn of time and into the future. In the spirit of the short-lived 60s and 70s cultural freedom, drawing on Hendrixs "All Along The Watchtower" for inspiration, this volume is an accessible "idiots guide" for the cataclysms to come.
