Dancing in a Pool of Gray Grits
Εκδότης: PALGRAVE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3233-0447

Hijikata Tatsumi's explosive 1959 debut Forbidden Colors sparked a new genre of performance in Japan - butoh: an art form of contrasts, by turns shocking and serene. Since then, though interest has grown exponentially, and people all over the world are drawn to butoh's ability to enact paradox and contradiction, audiences are less knowledgeable about the contributions and innovations of the founder of butoh. Hijikata Tatsumi and Butoh traces the rollicking history of the creation and initial maturation of butoh, and locates Hijikata's perf...

(P/B) NEGOTIATING UNITY AND DIVERSITY IN THE EUROPEAN UNION
Εκδότης: PALGRAVE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3233-0463

This book explores how the European Union has been responding to the challenge of diversity. In doing so, it considers the EU as a complex polity that has found novel ways for accommodating diversity. Much of the literature on the EU seeks to identify it as a unique case of cooperation between states that moves past classic international cooperation. This volume argues that in order to understand the EU's effort in managing the diversity among its members and citizens it is more effective to look at the EU as a state. While acknowledging t...

THEORIES IN ACTION
Εκδότης: PALGRAVE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3233-0294

This is an ideal introduction for all embarking on a degree in Politics or International Relations.

(P/B) CRITIQUE OF PURE REASON
Εκδότης: PALGRAVE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3233-0157

Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason is both one of the most rewarding of all philosophical works, and one of the most difficult. Norman Kemp Smith's translation is immensely valuable, not simply because he rendered Kant's language into readable English, but also because his own extensive understanding of the Critique made him acutely aware of the pitfalls of translation. The text followed is that of the second edition of 1787, and a translation is also given of all first-edition passages which in the second edition have been either alt...

Εκδότης: PALGRAVE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3233-0459

This book examines the use of game elements to encourage citizens to participate in political decision-making and the planning of large-scale public sector projects. It argues that success is based on a personal concern with the project and a belief in the influence on political decision making, but also on fun. Without fun, only a very small group of the 'usual suspects' will participate, especially in classic policymaking approaches like citizens' panels which require time and physical attendance. The book also examines the relationship ...
