Government of the Shadows: Parapolitics and Criminal Sovereignty

2009 y.
Publisher:
Description: Government of the Shadows analyses the concept of clandestine government. It explores how covert political activity and transnational organised crime are linked -- and how they ultimately work to the advantage of state and corporate power. The book shows that legitimate government is now routinely accompanied by extra-governmental covert operations. Using a variety of case studies, from the mafia in Italy to programmes for food and reconstruction in Iraq, the contributors illustrate that para-political structures are not `deviant`, but central to the operation of global governments. The creation of this truly parallel world-economy, the source of huge political and economic potential, entices states to undertake new forms of regulation, either through their own intelligence agencies, or through the more shadowy world of criminal cartels.

Government, Innovation and Technology Policy: An International Comparative Analysis (New Horizons in the Economics of Innovation)

y.
Publisher:
Description: This unique book offers a comprehensive analysis of the changing role of government with respect to domestic technology development in eight countries in both the developed and the developing world. The author distinguishes between those countries which can be classed as creators of new technologies (Japan, Korea and Israel) and those which possess the potential to create new technologies (Singapore, Malaysia, India, South Africa and Brazil). The author details the fiscal and non-fiscal policy measures each country employs to stimulate investments in R&,D in the enterprise sector. He finds that, for financial instruments such as tax incentives and research grants to succeed, a strong emphasis also needs to be placed on non-fiscal policy measures. The most important of these is human resource development which is emphasized as an integral component of successful innovation policy. The book is written in a manner which allows the comparison of results between each country. [detailed...]

Government`s Money Monopoly

y.
Publisher:
Description: A distinct correlation exists between how free a society is and how much power its government has over money. Because the United State of America was supposed to be a free country, its government was granted comparatively few` monetary powers only to borrow and coin money, and regulate its value. Yet today the same government possesses total power over every aspect of Americas monetary system. With an octopus-like stranglehold, Washingtons control extends to gold, money, banking and much more. How and why the Founders limited intention was converted into omnipotent government monetary power is the subject of this book a collection of basic materials which, if properly understood, explain what happened. The authors thoughtful analysis leads to its concluding proposal: a constitutional amendment wholly separating government from money, the only way permanently to eliminate governments power over the [detailed...]

Supporting the income tax took political courage on the part of the new governor, but in doing so he saved the financially crippled state from economic disaster. He also looked far into the future, at a time when few politicians expressed concern with the environment, Ogilvie created an exemplary and hard-hitting antipollution program.

Gowon: The Biography of a Soldier-Statesman

2009 y.
Publisher:
Description: In 1966, a soft-spoken 32-year old man emerged from relative obscurity and humble background to become Nigeria`s Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. His name was Lt Col (later General)Yakubu Gowon. He emerged as the compromise candidate following the political crisis that engulfed the country after the July 1966 military coup that had led to the assassination of the country`s first military Head of State, General Aguiyi Ironsi. At the end of the Civil War in 1970, General Gowon`s doctrine of `No Victor No Vanquished` greatly endeared him to many, and he was variously dubbed `Abraham Lincoln of Nigeria`, `a soft spoken but dynamic leader` `a real gentleman` and `an almost faultless administrator`. However, after he was overthrown in a military coup in July 1975, long knives were drawn out for him, with the hitherto friendly press and public crying `crucify him`, and now variously vilifying him as `weak` and of managing a purposeless administration that had [detailed...]

Jonathan Brown, Susan Grace Galassi
Goya`s Last Works

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Francisco JosA de Goya y Lucientes (17461828) spent the last four years of his life living in Bordeaux with other political AmigrAs from Spain and South America. In those years he created small-scale, intimate pieces, including uncommissioned portraits of friends and family, miniature paintings on ivory plaques, and numerous drawings and lithographs. These works attest to the artists continuing vitality in his old age and also offer insight into his life in Bordeaux. This beautiful book presents fifty-one key works from Goyas late period along with two essays that illuminate his works of that time. Jonathan Brown retells the story of Goyas difficult years in exile when he nevertheless continued to make art, experimenting with the new medium of lithography, inventing a technique of miniature painting on ivory, and painting remarkable portraits of friends and supporters. Susan Grace Galassi describes the rich historical and cultural [detailed...]
