Revival: Society in the Making: Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75 (1979) Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75

Revival: Society in the Making: Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75 (1979) Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75

This important book is the product of a remarkable experience. A sociologist domiciled in Hungary the author has intermittently taught and studied in France Britain and the United States. Few social scientists of the post-Second World War generation have had this range of experience. And as we know from the history of theoretical physics psychoanalysis economic and other fields Hungary is the incubator of great talents. A Society in the Making can be read on three levels: as a study of Hungarian social structure as a case-study in comparative social policy or as a contribution to the theory of social policy. As a study of Hungary the author's book is one of the small but growing number of analyses of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union which avoid denunciamentos and apologetics. It is a sympathetically critical account (as she says 'In social science there is no neutral act') from which much can be learned. | Revival: Society in the Making: Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75 (1979) Hungarian Social and Societal Policy 1945-75

The Third Indochina Conflict

The Third Indochina Conflict

The Third Indochina Conflict (1975-) is seen by some as the escalation of a local quarrel between Vietnam and Kampuchea; others attribute it to the attempts of external powers to advance their own interests by encouraging conflict among the various Indochinese states; most agree that it is a logical-but not inevitable-consequence of the First (1946-54) and Second (1959-75) Indochinese conflicts. The contributors to this book analyze the origins and development of the Third Indochinese Conflict and the problems posed by the complex issues involved.

Perspectives on India's Political Economy

Perspectives on India's Political Economy

This volume contains some of the core foundational contributions on the broad theme of the political economy of India’s development. These have been culled from the numerous writings of public personages thinkers and academic writers over the past century. The extant collections of readings on development economics usually contain readings from academic economists like Sen Bhagwati Bardhan Dreze Basu etc. The purpose of this collection is to point out to the lay reader that there is a world of writing on development that is outside the realms of academia. Accordingly we look at the contributions of figures like Mahatma Gandhi Jawaharlal Nehru Babasaheb Ambedkar Ram Manohar Lohia etc. who too had thought hard and deep about the process of India’s development. The present volume is a purposive selection of 23 articles out of the 75 pieces published earlier in four volumes with the title Economic Development of India by Routledge in 2015. This selection is brought out with the aim of retaining the flavour of the theme under discussion in a succinct single cover volume with a new introduction that ruminates on the recent developments. | Perspectives on India's Political Economy

Iranian Immigration to Israel History and Voices in the Shadow of Kings

Iranian Immigration to Israel History and Voices in the Shadow of Kings

Exploring the fascinating history behind Iranian-Jewish immigration to Israel this book offers a rare and untold history of one of Israel’s Middle Eastern Jewish populations.
