《政党学研究丛书：政党和政党制度比较研究》讲述了政党是近代政治的产物。人类社会进入近代以后，政党政治便逐渐成为近代政治体系的主流。政党是作为封建专制君主的对立物，伴随着民主的潮流而出现的。从政治体系而言，政党的出现是由于民主政治发展的需要。现代政治与传统政治的一个重要区别在于政党的出现和政党政治的发展，如果马基雅弗里时代政治舞台的主角是君主，那么当今世界各国政治舞台的主角是政党。从18世纪政党在英国议会出现以来，世界上许多国家的发展都是在各种各样的政党直接或间接指导下展开的。在人类社会跨入21世纪的当今世界，政党的存在几乎是各国普遍的政治现象，据目前全世界二百多个国家和地区的统计，除二十多个国家和地区是严格的君主制或政教合一无政党外，绝大多数国家都存在着政党，实行政党政治。政党的

The former editor in chief of the Economist returns to theterritory of his bestselling book The Sun Also Sets to lay out anentirely fresh analysis of the growing rivalry between China,India, and Japan and what it will mean for America, the globaleconomy, and the twenty-first-century world.

Rivalsexplains and explores the ways in which this sometimes bitterrivalry will play out over the next decade—in business, globalpolitics, military competition, and the environment—and reveals theefforts of the United States to manipulate and benefit from thisrivalry. Identifying the biggest risks born of these struggles,Rivals also outlines the ways these risks can and should be managedby all of us.

The Politics of Upheaval, 1935-1936, volume three of PulitzerPrize-winning historian and biographer Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr."sAge of Roosevelt series, concentrates on the turbulent concludingyears of Franklin D. Roosevelt's first term. A measure of economicrecovery revived political conflict and emboldened FDR's critics todenounce "that man in the White house." To his left were demagoguesHuey Long, Father Coughlin, and Dr. Townsend. To his right were thechampions of the old order ex-president Herbert Hoover, theAmerican Liberty League, and the august Supreme Court. For a time,the New Deal seemed to lose its momentum. But in 1935 FDR ralliedand produced a legislative record even more impressive than theHundred Days of 1933 a set of statutes that transformed the socialand economic landscape of American life. In 1936 FDR coasted toreelection on a landslide. Schlesinger has his usual touch withcolorful personalities and draws a warmly sympathetic portrait ofAlf M. Landon, the Republican candidate of 1936.

One ofthe most critical battles of the Afghan War is now revealed asnever before. Lions of Kandahar is an inside account from theunique perspective of an active-duty U.S. Army Special Forcescommander, an unparalled warrior with multiple deployments to thetheater who has only recently returned from combatthere. Southern Afghanistan was slipping away.That was clear to then-Captain Rusty Bradley as he began his thirdtour of duty there in 2006. The Taliban and their allies wereinfiltrating everywhere, poised to reclaim Kandahar Province, theirstrategically vital onetime capital. To stop them, the NATOcoalition launched Operation Medusa, the largest offensive in itshistory. The battlefield was the Panjwayi Valley, a densely packedwarren of walled compounds that doubled neatly as enemy bunkers,lush orchards, and towering marijuana stands, all laced withtreacherous irrigation ditches. A mass exodus of civilians heraldedthe carnage to come. Dispatched as a diversionary force insuppo

A blistering journalistic exposé: an account of governmentnegligence, corporate malfeasance, familial struggle, drugs,politics, murder, and a daring rescue operation in the Colombianjungle. On July 2, 2008, when three American private contractors andColombian presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt were rescuedafter being held for more than five years by the RevolutionaryArmed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the world was captivated by theirpersonal narratives. But between the headlines a major story waslost: Who exactly are the FARC? How had a drug-funded revolutionaryarmy managed to hold so many hostages for so long? Had our costlyWar on Drugs failed completely? Hostage Nation answers thesequestions by exploring the complex and corrupt political andsocioeconomic situations that enabled the FARC to gainunprecedented strength, influence, and impunity. It takes us behindthe news stories to profile a young revolutionary in the making, anelite Colombian banker-turned-guerrilla and the hard-drivenAmeric

It is history on an epic yet human scale. Vast in scope,exhaustive in original research, written with passion, narrativeskill, and human sympathy, A People's Tragedy is a profound accountof the Russian Revolution for a new generation. Many consider theRussian Revolution to be the most significant event of thetwentieth century. Distinguished scholar Orlando Figes presents apanorama of Russian society on the eve of that revolution, and thennarrates the story of how these social forces were violentlyerased. Within the broad stokes of war and revolution are miniaturehistories of individuals, in which Figes follows the main players'fortunes as they saw their hopes die and their world crash intoruins. Unlike previous accounts that trace the origins of therevolution to overreaching political forces and ideals, Figesargues that the failure of democracy in 1917 was deeply rooted inRussian culture and social history and that what had started as apeople's revolution contained the seeds of its degeneration intoviolence

In business and in life, these principles, among others, directly affect who we are and the way in which we conduct ourselves publicly and privately. Simply, they are both guidelines for and predictors of success, as they were for the man who was arguably the greatest American leader of the twentieth century--Franklin Delano Roosevelt. In Nothing to Fear, the bestselling author of Elizabeth I,CEO and Patton on Leadership, Alan Axelrod, examines the unparalleled leadership qualities of FDR, a man who would come to exemplify the kind of decency,bravery, and relentless courage it took to lift America out of the Great Depression and steer it through the darkest days of World War II, even as he battled a debilitating illness on the public stage. The leadership of FDR transformed the most perilous years of the twentieth century into what many Americans regarded as their finest hour. Axelrod distills Franklin Delano Roosevelt's life and career into fourteen themes containing a wealth of practical lessons for

This lecture explores the limits of politics in three senses:as a subject of study at Cambridge, as an academic discipline, andas a practical activity. Politics did not develop as an independentacademic subject in Cambridge in the twentieth century, and onlynow is this situation being rectified with the creation of the newDepartment of Politics and International Studies. Politics as anacademic discipline was once conceived as the master science. Morerecently it has become much more limited in its scope and itsmethods, but it still needs to preserve a tradition of politicalreasoning which focuses on problems rather than methodology, and isconcerned with understanding the limits to politics. The limits ofpolitics as a practical activity are explored through four modes ofpolitical reasoning: the sceptical, the idealist, the rationalistand the realist, as exemplified by the writings of Oakeshott,Keynes, Hayek, and Carr.
