Local governmentClass number: 320.8 Abstract: Многу земји во развој зад себе имаат сил-но централизирани влади. Од почетокот на 80-тите години, голем број од овие влади ја воведоа децентрализацијата со цел да ја зголемат демократијата и да ги подобрат услугите, особено во помалите заедници, далеку од главните градови. Во Одиме на локално, новата студија за ефектите на децентрализацијата на триесет мексикански општини, Мерили Гриндл опишува како локалната власт реагира кога и се доделуваат нови одговорности и ресурси во рамките на политиката на децентрализација. Таа објаснува зошто децентрализацијата доведува до подобра локална власт во некои случаи, а зошто, во некои други, не успева. Со комбинација на квалитативни и квантитативни методи, Гриндл ги разгледува податоците добиени од случајно избраните мексикански општини и се втурнува во градските собранија за да ги „следи" служ-бениците додека тие се обидуваат да се справат со разновидните задачи и тоа сред зголемени и конфликтни притисоци и нови очекувања. Децентрализацијата, ни открива таа, претставува меч со две острици.

HistoryClass number: 303.482 Abstract: "Globalization" has become a popular buzzword for explaining today's world. The expression achieved terminological stardom in the 1990s and was soon embraced by the general public and integrated into numerous languages. But is this much-discussed phenomenon really an invention of modern times? In this work, Jürgen Osterhammel and Niels Petersson make the case that globalization is not so new, after all. Arguing that the world did not turn "global" overnight, the book traces the emergence of globalization over the past seven or eight centuries. In fact, the authors write, the phenomenon can be traced back to early modern large-scale trading, for example, the silk trade between China and the Mediterranean region, the shipping routes between the Arabian Peninsula and India, and the more frequently traveled caravan routes of the Near East and North Africa all conduits for people, goods, coins, artwork, and ideas. Osterhammel and Petersson argue that the period from 1750 to 1880 an era characterized by the development of free trade and the long-distance impact of the industrial revolution represented an important phase in the globalization phenomenon. Moreover, they demonstrate how globalization in the mid-twentieth century opened up the prospect of global destruction though nuclear war and ecological catastrophe. In the end, the authors write, today's globalization is part of a long-running transformation and has not ushered in a "global age" radically different from anything that came before. This book will appeal to historians, economists, and anyone in the social sciences who is interested in the historical emergence of globalization.

World politicsClass number: 337 Abstract: This book is a comprehensive study of cooperation among the advanced capitalist countries. Can cooperation persist without the dominance of a single power, such as the United States after World War II? To answer this pressing question, Robert Keohane analyzes the institutions, or "international regimes," through which cooperation has taken place in the world political economy and describes the evolution of these regimes as American hegemony has eroded. Refuting the idea that the decline of hegemony makes cooperation impossible, he views international regimes not as weak substitutes for world government but as devices for facilitating decentralized cooperation among egoistic actors. In the preface the author addresses the issue of cooperation after the end of the Soviet empire and with the renewed dominance of the United States, in security matters, as well as recent scholarship on cooperation.
