This book provides a major empirical analysis of differing attitudes to European integration in three of Europe's most important countries: Germany, Spain, and the United Kingdom. From its beginnings, the European Union has resounded with debate over whether to move toward a federal or intergovernmental system. However, Juan Díez Medrano argues that empirical analyses of support for integration--by specialists in international relations, comparative politics, and survey research--have failed to explain why some countries lean toward federalism whereas others lean toward intergovernmentalism.By applying frame analysis to a unique set of primary sources (in-depth interviews, newspaper articles, novels, history texts, political speeches, and survey data), Díez Medrano demonstrates the role of major historical events in transforming national cultures and thus creating new opportunities for political transformation. Clearly written and rigorously argued, Framing Europe explains differences in support for European integration between the three countries studied in light of the degree to which each realized its particular "supranational project" outside Western Europe. Only the United Kingdom succeeded in consolidating an empire and retaining it after World War II, while Germany and Spain each abandoned their corresponding aspirations. These differences meant that these countries' populations developed different degrees of identification as Europeans and, partly in consequence, different degrees of support for the building of a federal Europe.

Neoliberalism has been the defining paradigm in global health since the latter part of the twentieth century. What started as an untested and unproven theory that the creation of unfettered markets would give rise to political democracy led to policies that promoted the belief that private markets were the optimal agents for the distribution of social goods, including health care. A vivid illustration of the infiltration of neoliberal ideology into the design and implementation of development programs, this case study, set in post-Soviet Tajikistan's remote eastern province of Badakhshan, draws on extensive ethnographic and historical material to examine a "revolving drug fund" program-used by numerous nongovernmental organizations globally to address shortages of high-quality pharmaceuticals in poor communities. Provocative, rigorous, and accessible, Blind Spot offers a cautionary tale about the forces driving decision making in health and development policy today, illustrating how the privatization of health care can have catastrophic outcomes for some of the world's most vulnerable populations.

À la chute du mur de Berlin en 1989, le capitalisme triomphait. Vingt ans plus tard, il est à l’agonie. Qu’a-t-il bien pu se passer entre-temps ? Une explication possible est que le capitalisme a été atteint du même mal qui venait de terrasser son rival, et la complexité devrait alors être incriminée : l’organisation des sociétés humaines atteindrait un seuil de complexité au-delà duquel l’instabilité prendrait le dessus et où, sa fragilité étant devenue excessive, le système courrait à sa perte. Une autre explication serait que le capitalisme avait besoin de l’existence d’un ennemi pour se soutenir. En l’absence de cette alternative, ses bénéficiaires n’auraient pas hésité à pousser leur avantage, déséquilibrant le système entier. Autre explication possible encore : du fait du versement d’intérêts par ceux qui sont obligés d’emprunter, le capitalisme engendrerait inéluctablement une concentration de la richesse telle que le système ne pourrait manquer de se gripper un jour ou l’autre. Entre ces hypothèses, il n’est pas nécessaire de choisir : les trois sont vraies et ont conjugué leurs effets dans la première décennie du xxie siècle. Cette rencontre de facteurs mortifères explique pourquoi nous ne traversons pas l’une des crises habituelles du capitalisme, mais sa crise majeure, celle de son essoufflement final, et pour tout dire celle de sa chute.

In the face of Earth's environmental breakdown, it is clear that technological innovation alone won't save our planet. A more radical approach is required, one that involves profound changes in individual and collective behaviour. 'Utopianism for a Dying Planet' examines the ways the expansive history of utopian thought, from its origins in ancient Sparta and ideas of the Golden Age through to today's thinkers, can offer moral and imaginative guidance in the face of catastrophe. The utopian tradition, which has been critical of conspicuous consumption and luxurious indulgence, might light a path to a society that emphasizes equality, sociability, and sustainability.

Al ruim dertig jaar bepaalt het neoliberale gedachtegoed wereldwijd de sociaaleconomische ordening. Tal van sociale correctiemechanismen die in de loop van de vorige eeuw moeizaam waren bereikt om de blinde toepassing van de vrije marktmechanismen toch enigszins te temperen, gingen daarbij op de schop.Het proces van almaar toenemende liberalisering van de wereldeconomie heeft geleid tot nefaste gevolgen voor de mensheid en onze planeet. Staten, ondernemingen en particulieren blijven hun toevlucht zoeken in systemen van schuldfinanciering, gebaseerd op de neoliberale mythe dat problemen niet aangepakt dienen te worden. 'De onzichtbare hand die de vrije marktwerking aanstuurt, zal ze immers ooit wel vanzelf oplossen'.Het is stilaan overduidelijk dat het neoliberale gedachtegoed heeft gefaald en bovenal vorm heeft gegeven aan een manifest onrechtvaardige wereld. Toch blijven tal van landen en supranationale organisaties, zoals het Internationaal Monetair Fonds en de Europese Unie, zonder noemenswaardig debat het pad van het neoliberalisme volgen.Waarom blijft de wereldeconomie, zelfs na de zware financiële crisis van 2008, overgeleverd aan de neoliberale waanzin? En wat is een mogelijk alternatief? (Bron: covertekst)
