"F.M. Wibaut (1859-1936) was de machtigste wethouder van Amsterdam in de twintigste eeuw en de grondlegger van het wethoudersocialisme in Nederland. Schatrijk geworden als houthandelaar in Middelburg, sloeg hij zijn vleugels uit en werd hij een van de invloedrijkste sociaaldemocraten van het land. In Amsterdam was hij vanaf het begin van de Eerste Wereld oorlog tot in 1931 wethouder. Hij beheerde de cruciale levensmiddelenpolitiek tijdens de oorlog, was wethouder van Volkshuisvesting en bereikte het toppunt van zijn macht in de jaren twintig als wethouder van Financiën. Zijn grote inzet en invloed in de Amsterdamse gemeentepolitiek leidden ertoe dat hij als bijnamen 'de Machtige' en 'Onderkoning van Amsterdam' kreeg. Men zei wel: 'B & W = burgemeester en Wibaut'. Dit boek gaat niet alleen over de gemeentepolitiek, maar ook over Wibauts betrokkenheid bij internationale organisaties zoals de Volkenbond. De Liagre Böhl gaat ook in op Wibauts rol als feminist en seksuele hervormer."--Back cover.

The book traces the evolution of gender ideologies in the Balkans, through emancipating women's roles during socialism and into the proliferation and normalization of hyper-sexualized images of women in advertising and other media in the post-socialist transition. Drawing on a media-centered cultural/critical approach to understanding the changing role of advertising in post-socialist societies and its influence on gender identities, the book offers a unique contribution to global media studies and the broader discipline of gender and communication.

Although Marx's writings on social transformation figured prominently in the global Left imagination for more than 150 years, by the late 20th century the relevance of Marxism was under question by both the Left (including Marxists) and the Right. Its revival in the second decade of the 21st century is finding new sources of inspiration and creativity from movements that believe that ""another world is possible"" through democratic, egalitarian, and ecological alternatives to capitalism built by ordinary people. The Marxism of many of these movements is not dogmatic or prescriptive, but open,

The Impossible Community confronts a critical moment when social and ecological catastrophe loom, the Left seems unable to articulate a response, and the Right is monopolizing public debates. This book offers a reformulation of anarchist social and political theory to develop a communitarian anarchist solution.It argues that a free and just social order requires a radical transformation of the modes of domination exercised through social ideology and institutional structures. Communitarian anarchism unites a universalist concern for social and ecological justice while recognizing the integrity and individuality of the person. In fact, anarchist principles of mutual aid and voluntary cooperation can already be seen in various contexts, from the rebuilding of New Orleans after Katrina to social movements in India.This work offers both a theoretical framework and concrete case studies to show how contemporary anarchist practice continues a long tradition of successfully synthetizing personal and communal liberation. This significant contribution will appeal not only to students in anarchism and political theory, but also to activists and anyone interested in making the world a better place.

In the late 1970s and '80s, socialist countries in Asia began reopening their borders to overseas scholars. Today, a growing number of social scientists are embarking on fieldwork in China, Vietnam, and Laos. Red Stamps and Gold Stars brings together all the messiness, compromise, and ethical dilemmas that underscore fieldwork in upland socialist Asia and elsewhere in the Global South. The volume's contributors � accomplished geographers, anthropologists, and ethnohistorians � foreground the importance of questioning one's subjective gaze and of debating representations of "the other." Reflecting on the realities of fieldwork in socialist regimes and analyzing their positionality and subjectivity in the field, they debate a range of ethical quandaries and the rewards that can be gained from critical reflection. Together, these unique contributions will advance the study of the practice of international fieldwork.

Perché l'Italia repubblicana non ha avuto un partito socialdemocratico paragonabile a quelli degli altri paesi europei? E cos'è stata, invece, la socialdemocrazia italiana? Che cultura politica ha espresso? Chi ne sono stati i portatori? A queste e altre domande cerca di rispondere questo libro, analizzando le origini del Partito Socialdemocratico Italiano e la sua storia nel primo periodo repubblicano (1947–1953). Muovendosi sul duplice binario della storia politica e della storia delle culture politiche, esso ricostruisce sia le convulse vicende dell'area socialista a destra del PSI sia l'evoluzione degli orizzonti dottrinari, delle strutture interpretative della realtà e dei modi di intendere l'agire politico che tale area espresse, focalizzando l'attenzione sulla molteplicità di attori, sensibilità e mentalità che in essa, per un breve periodo, si incontrarono. Sullo sfondo, stanno la guerra fredda e il brutale impatto che essa ebbe sul sistema politico italiano.

Developments across the millennia suggest that, even though democracies and free market economies are continuously challenged by crises and disturbances, such as natural disasters, wars, or technological revolutions, in the countries where they take roots civil liberties deepen and per capita prosperity increases. To substantiate this claim analytically, the authors emphasize the principles that make free markets a sine qua non condition for democracy and study the nature of the relationship between free market institutions and economic growth. By examining the operating principles, outcomes and challenges experienced by contemporary democracies, many lessons are drawn with regard to how governments should act in order to avoid the pitfalls inherently associated with representative democracy. To illustrate the dangers of deviating from these principles, the authors apply their findings to the Greek democracy and economy since the Second World War.
