The Elusive Quest for European Security - S. Duke - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

The Elusive Quest for European Security provides a detailed overview of the various attempts to incorporate a security and defence role in the European integration process.

The assessment includes topics such as the enlargement of NATO, the EU''s Amsterdam Treaty, and the role of the revived Western European Union, as well as the role of the main actors which includes Britain''s bid for European leadership in defence, and the changing attitudes of administrations in Washington DC.

Neighbourhoods of Poverty - - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Neighbourhoods of Poverty - - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Neighbourhoods of Poverty is concerned with the spatial dimension of urban social exclusion and integration. It draws on research from twenty-two neighbourhoods in eleven European cities: Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Brussels, Antwerp, London, Birmingham, Berlin, Hamburg, Milan, Naples and Paris and addresses two questions: - How do different neighbourhoods have an impact upon the opportunities and perspectives of poor individuals and households? - Are these neighbourhood impacts conditioned by national and welfare state contexts, by the wider metropolitan structures and by specific neighbourhood characteristics? Various aspects of poverty, social exclusion and integration are brought together and provide a new assessment of the place of neighbourhood within these wider debates.

Blood Brothers - B. Lintner - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Blood Brothers - B. Lintner - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

From pirates singing Ricky Martin to mob hits carried out with samurai swords, Bertil Lintner offers a fascinating look at organized crime in the Asia Pacific. Both Western and Asian pundits assert that shady deals are an Asian way of life. Some argue that corruption and illicit business ventures - gambling, prostitution, drug trafficking, gun running, oil smuggling - are entrenched parts of the Asian value system. Yet many Asian leaders maintain that their cities are safer than Sydney, Amsterdam, New York, and Los Angeles. Making use of expertise gained from twenty years of living in Asia, Lintner exposes the role crime plays in the countries of the Far East. In Blood Brothers , he takes you inside the criminal fraternities of Asia, examining these networks and their past histories in order to answer one question: How are civil societies all over the world to be protected from the worst excesses of increasingly globalised mobsters?
