Twentieth Century Russia Ninth Edition Donald Treadgoldwas one of the most distinguished Russian historians of his generation. His Twentieth Century Russia a standard text in colleges and universities for several decades has been regularly revised and expanded to reflect new events and scholarship. The present revision by Professor Herbert Ellison contains a major chapter on the Yeltsin era and brings the Russian story to the final year of the century. Twice in the twentieth century the collapse of the Russian state and empire has been followed by an effort to build a democracy on the Western model. The first effort succumbed within a few months to Lenin's communist revolution whose ideas and institutions dominated the history of Russia and eventually much of the world during the succeeding seventy-four years. In August 1991 an attempt by Soviet leaders to suppress democratic and nationalist movements unleashed by the Gorbachev reforms and already victorious in Eastern Europe precipitated instead an anti-communist revolution under the leadership of Boris Yeltsin. The revolution and the sweeping transformation that followed are treated in the new edition which assesses the aims and scope of the first decade of Russia's second revolution. The transformation included a new constitutional structure two fully democratic parliamentary elections and a presidential election (with another of each soon to come) a vigorous revival of political parties and political debate and major questions about Russia's political future. Against the broad background of the Russian experience over a turbulent century it raises the major questions: What are the prospects for Russian democracy? Why are the communists following an anti-communist revolution the most powerful parliamentary party in Russia's new parliament and what is their impact? Why has the conversion to a market economy proved so difficult and painful and what are its prospects? How has Russia related to the new states that were once fellow repub | Twentieth Century Russia Ninth Edition GBP 130.00 1

Democracy In Poland Second Edition Ever-changing election rules a highly fluid party system a constitution considered illegitimate by more than one major political actor polarized political elites and a system of corruption that has grown up together with the young democracy itself -these characterize contemporary Polish politics. At the same time Poland is frequently identified as the most successful example of a transition from communism to capitalism having led this series of world-changing transitions. It has distanced itself from a turbulent history as pawn in Eastern Europe's international politics to become a leading candidate for membership in the exclusive European Union club. As Polish democratic politics evolves it is taking unexpected forms and producing equally unexpected results. Through a comprehensive analysis of politics in this young European democracy Marjorie Castle and Ray Taras explain the complexity and uncertainty of political processes and outcomes in Poland. Poland'spast -the flawed Second Republic established after World War I as well as the imperfect independence in the Soviet shadow following World War II's devastation - dramatizes the unique historic opportunity it was given in 1989 to determine its own political future and perhaps eventually become a major European power. Choices made in 1989 and thereafter would not only construct a new democracy but shape and limit its possibilities. The primary focus here is on contemporary politics: what the fundamental political cleavages are whether parties adequately represent popular interests who the political elites are and what games they play whatinfluence the Catholic Church still holds in an aspiring Western-style secular republic and what policy challenges face Poland in the future. Inimitable political leaders changing political arenas and complexpolicy-making processes come to life through a fascinating narrative characterized by an insider's insight. | Democracy In Poland Second Edition GBP 130.00 1
