DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book describes the turbulent political history of Afghanistan from the communist upheaval of the 1970s through to the aftermath of the events of 11 September 2001. It reviews the importance of the region to external powers and explains why warfare and instability have been endemic. The author analyses in detail the birth of the Taliban and the bloody rise to power of fanatic Islamists, including Osama bin Laden, in the power vacuum following the withdrawal of US aid. Looking forward, Nojumi explores the ongoing quest for a third political movement in Afghanistan - an alternative to radical communists or fanatical Islamists and suggests the support that will be neccessary from the international community in order for such a movement to survive.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a volume of comparative essays on the First World War that focuses on one central feature: the political and cultural "mobilization" of the populations of the main belligerent countries in Europe behind the war. It explores how and why they supported the war for so long (as soldiers and civilians), why that support weakened in the face of the devastation of trench warfare, and why states with a stronger degree of political support and national integration (such as Britain and France) were ultimately successful.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn authoritative collection of the most important writings of an influential political thinker Sheldon Wolin was one of the most influential and original political thinkers of the past fifty years. In Fugitive Democracy, the breathtaking range of Wolin’s scholarship, political commitment, and critical acumen are on full display in this authoritative and accessible collection of essays. This book brings together his most important writings, from classic essays to his late radical essays on American democracy such as "Fugitive Democracy," in which he offers a controversial reinterpretation of democracy as an episodic phenomenon distinct from the routinized political management that passes for democracy today. Wolin critically engages a diverse range of political theorists, and grapples with topics such as power, modernization, the sixties, revolutionary politics, and inequality, all the while showcasing enduring commitment to writing civic-minded theoretical commentary on the most pressing political issues of the day. Fugitive Democracy offers enduring insights into many of today’s most pressing political predicaments, and introduces a whole new generation of readers to this provocative figure in contemporary political thought.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDoes your business's strategy need a major change in direction but you don't know where to start? Are you trying to implement a new strategy and don't know why it's not working? Are you having trouble getting your people on board with implementing change? Research shows that 67% of strategies fail due to poor implementation. If you are a leader responsible for strategy development and its implementation, this book will greatly improve your odds. Over the years Mike Harley has seen business leaders make every strategy and implementation mistake you can think of, including: thinking setting goals and prioritising initiatives is a strategy addressing symptoms, not the root cause issues in the organisation wasting millions on using big 'consulting' firms not involving frontline staff in the business to reduce implementation risk. Strategisation is packed full of stories from Mike's decades of experience in Australia and organisations around the world. The Strategisation framework recognises that a great strategy is only half the battle; without a team of enthusiastic people to carry it out, it's just words on a page, destined for costly failure.
