In an overview of the history of the US, combining cultural & political perspectives, events surrounding the founding of the US are recounted first, with a digression on Alexis de Tocqueville's perception of the then uniquely American institution of social equality. Then the industrial growth & political influence of the US in the nineteenth & early twentieth centuries are recorded. Finally, the US is discussed as a mature imperialistic power with a mission to dominate its weaker neighbors. 10 Tables. S. Karganovic.

On the microsocial level, the family is characterized by its internal inequality (in terms of economics, authority, expectations, etc). Crisis erupts when one of the members tries to disrupt the prevailing unequal relationships. On the macrosocial level, the dynamic of the capitalist mode of production necessarily weakens family cohesiveness; nevertheless, the political system needs a cohesive, integrated, & authoritarian family. There is, therefore, a contradiction between the economic & political requirements of the capitalist system in this area. S. Karganovic.

The nature of West Indian political mobilization in Britain is discussed. A number of processes-cultural ambivalence, individualism and island parochialism are examined as contributory factors to the paucity and ephemerality of localized West Indian political associations in the metropolitan society. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of, for example, changes in religious and family organization and how these relate to localized stratification systems within West Indian settlements in Britain. The utility of historical and comparative frameworks is stressed throughout the paper..

Arthur Koestler was an influential writer during the first years after the war. His attacks on communism got a world-wide echo, in particular among intellectuals. To the reading public he was in the first place a political writer. But according to himself the political content is only one aspect of his literary production from his first years as an author. As important were some mystical experiences he had while sitting in one of Franco's prisons awaiting execution during the Spanish Civil War. ; N/A

Available data on the activities of the multinationals and other aspects of international economic relations have rendered traditional approaches to the study of international politics, international organizations and the international system obsolete. The political and economic facts of international life are so intertwined that it has become compulsory to resort to the findings of political economy to discuss the international system and its functions and to assess properly the role and functions of the United Nations within it.

THE WEATHERMEN EMERGED AS A DISTINCT POLITICAL ENTITY IN June 1969 in the United States of America. They had their roots directly within the political (civil rights and anti-Vietnam war campaigns) and cultural (emergence of the so-called counter-culture) activities of the New Left movement of the 1960s. Their interest lies not only in this new linkage of politics and culture but more substantially in their attempt to become a guerrilla band and instigate revolution in the most advanced nation in the world.

Chancellor in Crisis." "Federal Chancellor Despairs." Such is the tenor of articles discussing the political situation in the Federal Republic. What has become of Willy Brandt? There have always been anecdotes about the chancellors. Adenauer in particular received his share. But the humor of bitterness and gloating has not been witnessed in these parts since the days of Adolf Hitler. Obviously, the two men are not to be compared. What is comparable is the need for psychic relief in political humor.

" Criticism and self-criticism," or inner-Party struggle as it is sometimes called, has always been a major mechanism of inner-Party decision making and discipline among Chinese political elites, but during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution it emerged as a form of mass mobilization and education as well. I shall argue here that this came about as a result of political decisions made in the context of a series of non-reversible structural changes in the Chinese system of communications

Political resistance to colonial rule poses particular problems of control and political socialization during the initial period of occupation. The strategy of early British intervention in Uganda reveals the recurrent use of legislative and judicial reform rather than direct police action to repress local unrest. In this paper, the history of administrative action with regard to two imputed offenses, arson and witchcraft, is examined as well as the factors which underlay the failure or success of such measures.

The article aims to take a closer look at the problems of broadly understood political correctness in the space of the digital games. The authors on several examples try to show the causes of this phenomenon – both those in the creation of the game world and the publishing process. The text primarily tries to look at political correctness from a wider perspective - trying to show the reasons for its existence, not necessarily related to the lobbying of minority groups.
