Описание: Eight of the last twelve presidents were millionaires when they took office. Why is it that most politicians in America are so much better off than the people who elect them - and does the social class divide between citizens and their representatives matter? The author answers this question with a resounding - and disturbing - yes.

Описание: This book throws light on whether Asian values constitute a specific genre that differentiates Asia from the West and feeds into its nations` foreign policies, and whether there is a basic difference of opinion on values or merely an aspect of contemporary power politics.
Unlike in other countries of Eastern Europe where the opposition to communism came in the form of single mass movements led by charismatic leaders such as V clav Havel and Lech Walęsa, in Hungary the opposition was very fragmented, brought together and made effective only by the authoritative, significant but relatively unknown rp d G ncz, who subsequently became Hungary's first post-communist president.
This book charts the political career of rp d G ncz, outlining the outstanding contribution he made to Hungary's transition to democracy. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including archives and interviews with G ncz himself and others, it shows how G ncz, unlike Havel who was a playwright and whose political role was largely symbolic, was a campaigning politician all his life, consistently advocating social democratic, but not communist, values. Imprisoned from 1956 for his participation in the 1956 uprising, G ncz was a highly-effective political operator in the transition period around 1989, and as president wielded real power effectively. As politics in Hungary are again marred by deep division and fragmentation, G ncz's success in bringing rival groups together is even more pronounced.
