(P/B) HABITS OF THE BALKAN HEART

Sociologist Stjepan Mestrovic, writing with Slaven Letica and Miroslav Goreta and drawing on theories of social character propounded by such thinkers as de Tocqueville, Veblen, and Bellah, sheds new light on the conflicts in the Balkans. The authors demonstrate that ancient ethnic, social, and na...

Recreational drug users (other than those who take harmful substances like alcohol and tobacco) are regularly imprisoned. Nearly half a million drug offenders are incarcerated in US jails, more than the total number of prisoners in 1980 and more than the entire EU prison population. In some states more is spent on maintaining the prison system than on education. Current drug policies lead to immense personal suffering, as well as police corruption, organized crime and contempt for the law, and make drugs more dangerous because they are ill...

(P/B) THE FOLLIES OF GLOBALISATION THEORY
The Follies of Globalisation Theory is an erudite and lively critique arguing that current fashionable preoccupations, such as the concern with spatiality, have generated deep intellectual confusions that stand in the way of a clear understanding of the modern world. It shows how and why these confusions ultimately condemn the globalization theorists themselves to a peculiar and quixotic stance: the more clearly they attempt to articulate their arguments, the more equivocal and evasive those arguments become, yielding at best the intellect...

(H/B) NEW POLITICAL RELIGIONS, OR AN ANALYSIS OF MODERN TERRORISM
In New Political Religions, or an Analysis of Modern Terrorism, Barry Cooper applies the insights of Eric Voegelin to the phenomenon of modern terrorism. Cooper points out that the chief omission from most contemporary studies of terrorism is an analysis of the "spiritual motivation" that is central to the actions of terrorists today. When spiritual elements are discussed in conventional literature, they are grouped under the opaque term religion. A more conceptually adequate approach is provided by Voegelin's political science and, in par...
