The Arab Uprisings: The People Want the Fall of the Regime by Jeremy Bowen
Jeremy Bowen has been the BBC’s Middle East correspondent for twelve years and has been on the ground for them as the recent revolutions have swept through the region.
Realising this as a game-changing moment in the history of the Middle East, The Arab Uprisings captures the thoughts and feelings of the people involved as the events unfolded, putting these revolutions in their political context, and using them as a prism through which to understand the broader history and landscape of the Middle East.
The book will look at the world the demonstrators rejected and its Arab dictators. The author will examine brutal police states, tribal loyalty and foreign help. The West’s response and Israel’s too, will form part of the narrative.
This is an urgent and authoritative account of the seismic political changes rocking the Middle East, from one of the foremost reporters of our time.

Between Democracy and Terror: The Sierra leone Civil War By Ibrahim Abdullah
Books, Books & Games, Politics & DevelopmentBetween Democracy and Terror: The Sierra leone Civil War By Ibrahim Abdullah
Seller: GrammyBooksThis is the most authoritative study of the Sierra Leone civil war to emanate from Africa, or indeed any publications’ programme on Africa. It explores the genesis of the crisis, the contradictory roles of different internal and external actors, civil society and the media; the regional intervention force and the demise of the second republic. It analyses the numerous peace initiatives designed to end a war, which continued nonetheless to defy and outlast them; and asks why the war became so prolonged. The study articulates how internal actors trod the multiple and conflicting pathways to power. It considers how non-conventional actors were able to inaugurate and sustain an insurgency that called forth the largest concentration of UN peacekeepers the world has ever seen.

Politics By Aristotle
Seller: GrammyBooksWhat is the relationship of the individual to the state? What is the ideal state, and how can it bring about the most desirable life for its citizens? What sort of education should it provide? What is the purpose of amassing wealth? These are some of the questions Aristotle attempts to answer in one of the most intellectually stimulating works.
Both heavily influenced by and critical of Plato’s Republic and Laws, Politics represents the distillation of a lifetime of thought and observation. “Encyclopaedic knowledge has never, before or since, gone hand in hand with a logic so masculine or with speculation so profound,” says H. W. C. Davis in his introduction. Students, teachers, and scholars will welcome this inexpensive new edition of the Benjamin Jowett translation, as will all readers interested in Greek thought, political theory, and depictions of the ideal state.SKU: n/a -
