Making Race and Nation: A Comparison of South Africa, the United States, and Brazil (Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics) by Anthony W. Marx
English | December 28, 1997 | ISBN: 0521584558, 0521585902 | True EPUB | 412 pages | 0.5 MB
In this bold, original and persuasive book, Anthony W. Marx provocatively links the construction of nations to the construction of racial identity. Using a comparative historical approach, Marx analyzes the connection between race as a cultural and political category rooted in the history of slavery and colonialism, and the development of three nation states. He shows how each country's differing efforts to establish national unity and other institutional impediments have served, through the nation-building process and into their present systems of state power, to shape and often crystallize categories and divisions of race.

English | September 15, 2019 | ISBN: 1916230806 | 232 pages | EPUB | 0.95 Mb
We're all products of our comparisons. What we think of ourselves, the way we feel and how we behave are affected by the comparisons we make. The comparison-generating properties of social media mean this is more relevant than ever before. Our comparisons also influence the everyday decisions we reach, often to our disadvantage. From eating to investing, driving to buying and working to dating, we can use them far better than we do. In "The Power of Comparison" you'll learn how to tackle the mental health problems comparisons can cause as well as ways to turn them to your psychological, physical and financial advantage. It's a manual for better living in this exciting, yet challenging, new era.

J. Burgess, "Cultures of governance and peace: A comparison of EU and Indian theoretical and policy approaches"
English | ISBN: 0719099552 | 2016 | 208 pages | EPUB | 420 KB
This volume brings together insights which look at the intersection of governance, culture and conflict resolution in India and the European Union. Two very different but connected epistemic, cultural and institutional settings, which have been divided by distance, colonialism and culture; yet have recently been brought closer together by ideas and practices of what is known as liberal peace, neoliberal state and development projects. The differences are obvious in terms of geography, culture, the nature and shape of institutions, and historical forces: and yet the commonalities between the two are surprising.

Raj Chari, "Regulating lobbying: A global comparison, 2nd edition "
English | ISBN: 1526117258 | 2019 | 256 pages | EPUB | 819 KB
Governments worldwide are developing sunshine policies that increase transparency in politics, where a key initiative is regulating lobbyists. Building on the pioneering first edition, this book updates its examination of all jurisdictions with regulations, from the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Asia, and Australia. Unlike any book, it offers unique insights into how the regulations compare and contrast against each other, offering a revamped theoretical classification of different regulatory environments and situating each political system therein. This edition innovatively considers different measurements to capture the robustness of lobbying laws in terms of promoting transparency and accountability. And, based on the authors' experience of advising governments globally, it closes with a no-nonsense guide on how to make a lobbying law. This is of value to policymakers seeking to introduce or amend regulations, and lobbyists seeking to influence this process.

The stories contain many echoes of Biblical truth and are fascinating and deeply meaningful to all those looking for honor or seeking guidance in these times.

Between Two Ancient Cultures: Comparison of the heroes of the Manas Epic and Ferdowsi's Shahnameh by Yusuf Emrah ILIK
English | February 26, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08XNXDMXW | 186 pages | EPUB | 0.32 Mb
Two works in which this similarity is clearly observed are the world-famous "Manas", the favorite of the Kyrgyz, and the "Shahnameh" of Ferdowsi, which is the leading literary product of Persian nations in the X century. Since Manas Epic and Shahnameh both carry clues about Turkish-Iranian life, they have an importance beyond discussion in the history of world literature. In this study, the importance of analyzing epics "Manas" and "Shahnameh" in terms of present-day will be revealed by providing reasons. Epics are the first of these reasons because of their timeliness. At the moment, as all civilizations arrive at the door of a new era concerning the development of their culture and national identity, it is among these reasons to investigate the experience of the past and the extremely sensitive interest of the two nations of Farsi and Turkic, which are among the leading civilized nations of the world, and globally known in the past and present, to the myth and legend.
