English | ISBN: 0062114794 | 2012 | 304 pages | EPUB | 603 KB
Presidential candidate and longtime representative Ron Paul of Texas is a true enigma in American politics: at once a libertarian who believes in outlawing abortion and halting illegal immigration, and a traditional conservative who fervently opposes the drug war, the PATRIOT Act, and America's interventions in the Middle East. In Ron Paul's rEVOLution, Brian Doherty, a senior editor at Reason magazine and Reason.com, documents the meteoric rise of Paul from relative obscurity to national prominence, and examines the fanatically devoted political movement that has arisen around him. Based on original reporting,

Iulia-Sabina Joja, "Romania's Strategic Culture 1990-2014: Continuity and Change in a Post-Communist Country's Evolution of National Interes"
English | ISBN: 383821286X | 2019 | 220 pages | EPUB | 895 KB
Analysis of strategic culture facilitates a comprehensive understanding of a nation's security identity and patterns of policy conduct. Though strategic culture changes over time, why and how these mutations take place has not been researched much so far. This book sheds light on the reasons why specific features of a country's strategic thinking remain rigid while others transform. The national strategic cultures of post-communist Eastern Europe have been exposed to a panoply of shocks and shifts. Romania's communist regime cultivated a uniquely thorny relationship with the Soviet Union, which facilitated the development of a national security narrative legitimizing a highly isolationist foreign policy. These factors have heavily weighed on Romanian post-communist strategic thinking and complicated the transition process. At first glance, Romania went through an astonishing adaptation to novel security challenges. Ultimately, however, its traditional national strategic thinking remained in some ways constant. Core features of Romania's strategic culture-such as the state-nation constellation-were the most resilient to change. In contrast, the intermediary features-such as the understanding of security and role conception-as well as outer layers-such as the foreign policy orientation and guidelines to using force-of strategic culture were more prone to influence by shocks, shifts, and norm entrepreneurs.

Anca Sinea, "Romania as an Energy Actor in the EU: Cooperation in European Energy policy "
English | ISBN: 0367417871 | 2020 | 12 pages | EPUB | 254 KB
The purpose of this book is twofold. First, it aims to explain the general framework for cooperation in the energy sector in Europe, with a conceptual basis that allows for a better understanding of the dynamics that led to its existence. Second, the volume deals with Romania both as a representative case for the region, given the commonalities raised by the transition process in the last three decades, and also as a country with a specific energy agenda, with implications for internal and foreign policy that can only be perceived and understood in the Romanian context.

Martin Crowley, "Robert Antelme: Humanity, Community, Testimony"
English | 2003 | ISBN: 1900755807 | EPUB | pages: 124 | 1.9 mb
Best known for his 1947 memoir L'Espece humaine, Robert Antelme (1917-1990) is a central figure in the history of the European response to the Nazi concentration camps. In this first study in any language to be devoted to Antelme's work, Martin Crowley reveals the author's vital yet insufficiently recognized influence on recent thought in France and elsewhere about such questions as the nature of community and the indivisibility of humanity. He explores the conclusions Antelme drew from his deportation and his involvement with the post-war French left, and provides the first detailed textual criticism of L'Espece humaine. Examining the responses to the author's writing by such figures as Blanchot, Perec, Agamben, Nancy and Derrida, Crowley demonstrates Antelme's key contribution to the development of modern European thought.

John T. Shaw, "Richard G. Lugar, Statesman of the Senate: Crafting Foreign Policy from Capitol Hill"
English | ISBN: 0253001935 | 2012 | 280 pages | EPUB | 472 KB
Two-time chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Richard G. Lugar has been one of the most widely respected foreign policy experts in Congress for over three decades. In this illuminating profile, John T. Shaw examines Lugar's approach to lawmaking and diplomacy for what it reveals about the workings of the Senate and changes in that institution. Drawing on interviews with Lugar and other leading figures in foreign policy, Shaw chronicles Lugar's historic work on nuclear proliferation, arms control, energy, and global food issues, highlighting the senator's ability to influence American foreign policy in consequential ways. The book presents Lugar's career as an example of the role Congress can play in the shaping of foreign policy in an era of a strong executive branch. It demonstrates the importance of statesmanship in contemporary American political life while acknowledging the limitations of this approach to governance.
