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

Still Contested and Colonized Ground: Post–Cold War Interpretations of U.S.

Is what could have happened but never did as real as what did happen? What did happen, but isn't happening now, happened at another time. Analogously, one can say that what could have happened happens in another possible world. Whatever their views about the reality of such things as possible worlds, philosophers need to take this analogy seriously. Adriane Rini and Max Cresswell exhibit, in an easy step-by-step manner, the logical structure of temporal and modal discourse, and show that every temporal construction has an exact parallel that requires a language that can refer to worlds, and vice versa. They make precise, in a way which can be articulated and tested, the claim that the parallel is at work behind even ordinary talk about time and modality. The book gives metaphysicians a sturdy framework for the investigation of time and modality - one that does not presuppose any particular metaphysical view.
We are simply using English as an example of a language in which sentences
are being used which can illustrate the world—time parallel, and we choose
English simply because readers of this book will already understand it. We are
though concerned with how to analyse the truth or falsity of ordinary English
sentences like And we say that (1) is true at a time t iff1 there is rain in Waitarere
at t. In other words (2) 'It is raining in Waitarere' is true at a time t iff it is raining in
Waitarere at l', ...
It is widely accepted that English Renaissance drama owes its extraordinary richness and variety to the blending of elements originating from the medieval heritage and classical and Italian dramatic traditions. This grafting of the "Italian world" onto the English Renaissance goes far beyond the conventional research of the literary sources. The articles in this collection explore English Renaissance drama through new and challenging aspects of influence and through investigations into classical and Italian theater. The volume moves from early Elizabethan to late Jacobean drama. The area of research ranges from New Classical Comedy to commedia erudita, from the Renaissance theory of tragedy and tragicomedy to the birth of pastoral drama and beyond.
Much attention has been devoted to the impact of Machiavelli's political works,
their impact on English politics as well as English literature, and Mario Praz's
long essay, "Machiavelli and the Elizabethans," is still useful as a critical survey.1
The influence of Machiavelli's literary work outside Italy has also been thoroughly
investigated. Machiavelli's comedy The Mandragola has received ample
attention, as have his Clizia, the Dialogue on Language, and even The Golden
Ass. However, ...
"Paling lambat 1,5 bulan ke depan, kalian semua harus sudah berangkat!" Demikian ucapan Prof. Rhenald Kasali di hari pertama masuk kuliah Pemasaran Internasional yang sontak membuat kelas gaduh luar biasa. Negara tujuan ditentukan saat itu juga. Sementara paspor harus didapatkan dalam waktu dua minggu ke depan. Metode kuliah yang awalnya ditentang banyak orang tersebut-dari orangtua mahasiswa sampai sesama dosen-terbukti menjadi ajang "latihan terbang" bagi para calon rajawali. Demikian Prof. Rhenald mengibaratkannya. Tersasar di negeri orang dapat menumbuhkan mental self driving, syarat untuk menjadi pribadi yang bebas, mandiri, dan bertanggung jawab menentukan arah hidup sendiri. Dalam jilid pertama buku ini, para mahasiswa mengalami sendiri berbagai pengalaman unik. Ketinggalan pesawat, tidak punya uang sehingga terpaksa mencari negara miskin, kena tipu oleh pengemis, adalah beberapa di antaranya.

“Abang hati-hati, ya, di sana, Nak. Jangan lupa makan dan istirahat yang banyak
biar enggak sakit,” pesan ibuku. Aku anak pertama dari dua bersaudara maka
aku dipanggil abang di keluargaku. “Abang wajib mengabari Papa minimal tiga
kali, yaitu setelah transit di Malaysia, tiba di India, dan sesampainya di hotel.
Enggak peduli lewat SMS atau e-mail, pokoknya harus kasih kabar!”Titah petuah
tak terbantah dari Ayah. Bahkan ketika aku belum sempat menyahut, Ayah
