Political Action is an innovative study of conventional and unconventional political behaviour in five developed nations. How and why do people engage in the various forms of political action and protest? What differences do age, education, and degree of deprivation make? An unusual example of cross-national collaboration that is a treasure-trove of data, a source of provocative explanations, and an exemplar of sophisticated research strategies.'The whole of this book will be read only by specialists; it is an important book all the same. Drawing on survey data from Britain, Holland, West Germany, the United States and Austria, the authors seek to explain the waves of political protest that swept through the advanced industrial democracies in the late 1960's.' -- The Economist, February 23, 1980

Gender, Islam and Democracy in Indonesia

This book explores the relationship between gender, religion and political action in Indonesia, examining the patterns of gender orders that have prevailed in recent history, and demonstrating the different forms of social power this has afforded to women. It sets out the part played by women in the nationalist movement, and the role of the women’s movement in the structuring of the independent Indonesian state, the politics of the immediate post-independence period and the transition to the authoritarian New Order. It analyses in detail the gender relations of the New Order regime, focused around the unitary family form supposed by the family system expounded in the New Order ideology and the contradictory implications of the opening up of the economy to foreign capital and ideas, for gender relations. It examines the forms of political activism that were possible for the women’s movement under the New Order, and the role it played in the fall of Suharto and the transition to democracy. The relationship between Islam and women in Indonesia is also addressed, with particular focus on the way in which Islam became a critical focus for political dissent in the late New Order period. Overall, this book provides a thorough investigation of the relationship between gender, religion and democracy in Indonesia, and is a vital resource for students of gender studies and Indonesian affairs.

Festschrift in honor of Basoeki Probowinoto, b. 1917, clergyman of Gereja Kristen Jawa in Indonesia

Gereja Katolik di Prancis nampaknya sudah begitu merupakan bagian dari tata
sosial sehingga ia tak sudi untuk solider dengan mereka yang menjadi korban
dari tata sosial. Ada kecenderungan bahwa larangan yang dikeluarkan para
uskup bagi para imam-pekerja yang bekerja dalam pabrik-pabrik itu,
berdasarkan pendapat Gereja bahwa tindakan para imam-pekerja itu
bertentangan dengan panggilan rohani mereka. Perkembangan pelayanan

The Encyclopedia of Taxation & Tax Policy

From adjusted gross income to zoning and property taxes, the revised edition of The Encyclopedia of Taxation and Tax Policy offers the best and most complete guide to taxes and tax related issues. More than 150 tax practitioners and administrators, policymakers, and academics contributed to this unique and authoritative reference. The Encyclopedia examines virtually all tax instruments used by governments (individual income, corporate income, sales and value-added, property, estate and gift, franchise, poll, and many variants of these taxes), as well as characteristics of a good tax system, budgetary issues, and many current federal, state, local, and international tax policy issues. The new edition is completely revised, with 40 new topics and 200 articles revised to reflect six years of legislative changes. Each essay provides the generalist with a quick and reliable introduction to many topics but also gives tax specialists the benefit of the best thinking of other experts in a manner that makes the complex understandable. Reference lists point the reader to additional sources of information for each topic. The first edition was selected as an Outstanding Academic Book of the Year by Choice magazine

It is evident, however, that the long-run implications of amnesties are ambiguous.
The potential gain from identifying past evaders and improving their compliance
in the long run must be weighed against three factors that might reduce
compliance of others in the long run. First, some complying taxpayers might
decide to not pay taxes fully in the future and to wait for an amnesty. To mitigate
against this potential problem, states holding amnesties have often emphasized
