Download or read book Warriors and Peasants written by S. O'Rourke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-01-20 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warriors and Peasants depicts the lives of the Don Cossacks in late Imperial Russia. The dual identity of the Cossacks, that of the steppe and of the settled Slavic areas, is emphasized as the key to their unique culture.

Book Synopsis Peasants, Warriors, and Wives by : Keith Moxey
Download or read book Peasants, Warriors, and Wives written by Keith Moxey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2004-04 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Peasants, Warriors, and Wives, Keith Moxey examines woodcut images from the German Reformation that have often been ignored as a crude and inferior form of artistic production. In this richly illustrated study, Moxey argues that while they may not satisfy received notions of "art," they nevertheless constitute an important dimension of the visual culture of the period. Far from being manifestations of universal public opinion, as a cursory acquaintance with their subject matter might suggest, such prints were the means by which the reformed attitudes of the middle and upper classes were disseminated to a broad popular audience.

Book Synopsis The Roots of Balkanization by : Ion Grumeza
Download or read book The Roots of Balkanization written by Ion Grumeza and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2010-08-04 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Balkanization' is a modern term describing the fragmentation and re-division of countries and nations in the Balkan Peninsula, as well as a dynamic meaning 'the Balkan way of doing things.' The Roots of Balkanization describes the historical changes that took place in the Balkan Peninsula after the collapse of the Roman Empire and their impact in Eastern lands. It develops conclusions reached in the author's previous book, Dacia: Land of Transylvania, Cornerstone of Ancient Eastern Europe, covering 500 B.C.-A.D. 500. Balkan multi-ethnicity was formed after the fifth century, when barbarian invaders settled and violently mixed with the native ancient nations. By the use of sword and terror, warlords became kings and their confederations of tribes became state nations. New societies emerged under the blessing of the Orthodox Church, only to fight against each other over disputed land that eventually came to be occupied by other invaders. The involvement of western powers and the Ottoman expansion triggered more grievances and violence, culminating with the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and the end of the Byzantine Empire. The medieval culture of the Balkans survived and continues to play a major role in how business and political life is conducted today in Eastern Europe.

Book excerpt: Everyone of us is who and where we are today because of the efforts and decisions of those who came before us -- our ancestors.

Book Synopsis Military Organization and Society by : Stanislaw Andrzejewski
Download or read book Military Organization and Society written by Stanislaw Andrzejewski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998. This is Volume Vi of the eighteen in the Sociology of Work and Organization series. The author of the present book belongs to the sociological tradition that, starting from Montesquieu, includes such thinkers as Herbert Spencer, Emile Durkheim and Max Weber. The idea formulated by Montesquieu is that there are important relations of interdependence amongst the various features of social life that characterize different societies, and he applied this idea in an attempt to discover the relations between the laws of society and other features of social life, the form of government, the religion, the economic institutions, usages of various kinds and geographical environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 26-volume set is a wide-ranging, time- and subject-spanning examination of the phenomenon of political protest. What drives people to take to the streets, and how do their governments respond? These questions and many more are analysed in areas as varied as sixteenth-century German peasant uprisings, revolutionary Russians at the Paris Commune, women protesting nuclear weapons at Greenham Common, and the role Christianity played in protests across the ages. An impressive reference resource, this set also looks at the policing of protests and official responses to them.
Book Synopsis Kings Or People by : Reinhard Bendix
Download or read book Kings Or People written by Reinhard Bendix and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1978 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is difficult to decide which is the more impressive: the authority and control with which Mr. Bendix writes of the traditions, the institutions, and the technological and social developments of cultures as diverse as the British, French, German, Russian, and Japanese, or the skill with which he weaves his separate stories into a persuasive scenario of the modern revolution. A remarkable achievement."--Gordon A. Craig, Stanford University ""Kings or People" is equal to the grandeur of its subject: the political origins of the modern world. With Barrington Moore's "Social Origins of Dictatorship and Democracy" and Immanuels Wallerstein's "The Modern World System" which it matches in boldness, while differing radically in perspective, it is one of the truly powerful ventures in comparative historical sociology to have appeared in recent years."--Clifford Geertz "A brilliant achievement that will be equally fascinating for the general reader, the student, and the specialized scholar."--Henry W. Ehrmann
