The Russian-Chechen war has been the longest, cruelest, and bloodiest conflict in Europe since World War II, surpassing even the level of destruction of Bosnia and Kosovo. Told from the perspective of its former Foreign Minister, this uniquely candid account of Chechnya's struggle for independence and its two wars against Russia will revise our understanding of the conflict and explain how it continues. Ilyas Akhmadov delivers a comprehensive history of the first war against Russia, the crises within Chechen society, the splintering and radicalization of the Chechen leadership, the incursions into Dagestan, and his own efforts to bring about peace. The book shows the impossible dilemma of the moderate nationalists in post-Soviet societies, who are challenged by radical Islamic ideology, social deprivations, Russian aggression, and international neglect. By giving voice to the moderates, the book seeks to shift the balance in their favor.

E.E. Slutsky is perhaps the Russian/Ukrainian economist most quoted by mainstream economists today. This is the first research monograph to examine the life and work of the internationally-renowned economist and mathematician. It does so from both a 'history of economics' perspective and a 'history of science' perspective, bringing these two strands together in order to demonstrate Slutsky's enduring legacy as an innovative researcher and an influential intellectual. It also presents some of Slutsky's lesser-known (and hitherto-unavailable) works in English translation.
"The Scholar and the Tiger is at once a compelling family saga, thriller, social history, and spiritual journey. Written by a noted China scholar, assisted by a writer friend, the story brings to life a tumultuous period in Chinese history while providing surprising insights into China's emergence as a global power. Wen-wei Chang was born in 1929 as famine gripped northern China, taking the lives of countless peasants, including his father. Only his iron-willed mother kept the family alive. The eldest son, Wen-po, joined the army. Eighteen years Wen-wei's senior, Wen-po fought bandits, opium smugglers, the Japanese, and Mao's Communists, becoming known as "Tiger Chang." Meanwhile, Wen-wei-a brilliant scholar from childhood-seemed destined for a career in the age-old mandarin tradition of civil service. But civil war intervened, forcing him to evacuate his ill mother and two sisters-in-law and their children only days before the Communists reached Beijing. In Shanghai, they were reunited with Wen-po, now a leading Guomindang general who commanded the city's final defenses. Wen-wei refused evacuation to Taiwan, insisting on caring for his mother and making the best life he could under the Communists. But a day after the occupation of the city, a terrified friend told Wen-wei that Wen-po had been left behind and was hiding in the friend's apartment, putting all of their lives at risk. What follows has all the drama of a spy novel: narrow escapes and rescues, treachery and blackmail, and a final wrenching irony that would tear Wen-wei from his family and homeland. Only after thirty years in America, with a new life as university professor David Chang, is he allowed to return to China to learn the fate of his mother and loved ones-and perhaps to heal his broken heart."--Publisher's web site
Klappentext: "This book is about policy makers, often unknown, who have wielded enormous influence on U.S. foreign policy. With the advent of the Cold War, presidents moved beyond their secretaries of state and reached out to individuals in the intelligence or military organizations and to their own White House advisers. These essays are about those individuals and the policies they influenced."

Am 19. April 1943 findet unter dem Vorsitz von Roland Freisler der zweite Prozess gegen Mitglieder der Weißen Rose statt; dabei hält Professor Huber eine Verteidigungsrede, die berühmt ist für ihre philosophische Begründung des Widerstandes gegen den Nationalsozialismus. Nach Hubers Hinrichtung gelangte das Manuskript dieser Rede durch Unachtsamkeit des Gefängnispersonals Stadelheim in einem Stapel wissenschaftlicher Schriftstücke in den Besitz seiner Witwe Clara Huber. Die viel zitierte Rede wird hier zum ersten Mal vollständig, originalgetreu und zusammen mit vorbereitenden Notizen in einer historisch-kritischen Edition mit reichem Kommentar vorgelegt. Die Kommentierung verwendet zum Teil noch unveröffentlichtes Archivmaterial.
