Описание: This book turns the argument about aid effectiveness on its head. Since development assistance is inherently self-interested, a source of soft power, political manipulation and commercial opportunity, its real effectiveness could arguably be judged by the strength of donor influence and not by development impact.
Описание: This book argues that the UK, as a post-modern globalised state, will require means to have influence over events and opponents that threaten the UK`s interests in the 21st century, and that its means is the Royal Navy.

Описание: This book is the author's response to the initial wave of democracy euphoria in South-East Europe, and the obvious regress of it after the "last catch" accession of Bulgaria and Romania (2007) into the European Union family. A core deficit in this respect is the lack of sustainable patronage, relevant to modern societal existence. 1 The bitter fruits of some "dilemma of simultaneity" (Elster 1990), which might have failed to precisely predict the impossibility of transformation in Eastern - rope, has hit the target, as related to the breeds of "impatient capitalisms" that - vour the region. Rising institutional asymmetries, the neglected "rule of law", the lack of procurement procedures and public control over governmental expenditures as well as illegal schemes of privatisation, tax collecting and the unfair allocation of public funds have shaped mimicries of reforms in crucial spheres of social life. Corruptive patterns of patronages have very much spoiled the outputs of a most p- truded and teasing transition. This undermines significant societal progress. System abuse of civic rights, conflict of interests, nepotisms, political partisanship, int- weaving of institutions with organized criminality threaten to deviate the region from the general aims of democratic existence and modern societal advance.
