    Book SynopsisChallenges of Modernity offers a broad account of the social and economic history of Central and Eastern Europe in the twentieth century and asks critical questions about the structure and experience of modernity in different contexts and periods.This volume focuses on central questions such as: How did the various aspects of modernity manifest themselves in the region, and what were their limits? How was the multifaceted transition from a mainly agrarian to an industrial and post-industrial society experienced and perceived by historical subjects? Did Central and Eastern Europe in fact approximate its dream of modernity in the twentieth century despite all the reversals, detours and third-way visions? Structured chronologically and taking a comparative approach, a range of international contributors combine a focus on the overarching problems of the region with a discussion of individual countries and societies, offering the reader a comprehensive, nuanced survey ofTable of ContentsVolume introduction Włodzimierz Borodziej, Stanislav Holubec and Joachim von Puttkamer Urban and rural development in Eastern Europe Błażej Brzostek and Ivana Dobrivojević Tomić Social structure, mobility and education Zsombor Bódy and Stanislav Holubec Transport, infrastructure and communication Luminița Gatejel and Jerzy Kochanowski Women between the public and private spheres Kateřina Lišková and Stanislav Holubec Population and family Stanislav Holubec and Béla Tomka Economic development Jerzy Łazor and Bogdan Murgescu Consumption and leisure in twentieth-century Central and Eastern Europe Béla Tomka

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Rule of Law Common Values and Illiberal

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book challenges the idea that the Rule of Law is still a universal European value given its relatively rapid deterioration in Hungary and Poland, and the apparent inability of the European institutions to adequately address the illiberalization of these Member States. The book begins from the general presumption that the Rule of Law, since its emergence, has been a universal European value, a political ideal and legal conception. It also acknowledges that the EU has been struggling in the area of value enforcement, even if the necessary mechanisms are available and, given an innovative outlook and more political commitment, could be successfully used. The authors appreciate the different approaches toward the Rule of Law, both as a concept and as a measurable indicator, and while addressing the core question of the volume, widely rely on them. Ultimately, the book provides a snapshot of how the Rule of Law ideal has been dismantled and offers a theory of the Rule of Law in illiberTable of ContentsPreface Rule of Law: In Context Chapter 1 Tímea Drinóczi – Agnieszka Bie?-Kaca?a, Illiberal Constitutionalism and the European Rule of Law Rule of Law: A Common Value Chapter 2 Andrzej Madeja, The European Values and the Rule of Law Chapter 3 Wojciech W?och, ‘Where the Laws Do Not Govern, There is No Constitution’: On the Relationship between the Rule of Law and Constitutionalism Rule of Law in National Practice: Is It a Common Value?

    Book SynopsisStatehood examines the extending lines of development of nation-state systems in Eastern Europe, in particular considering why certain tendencies in state development found a different expression in this region compared to other parts of the continent. This volume discusses the differences between the social developments, political decisions, and historical experience that have influenced processes of state-building, with a focus on the structural problems of the region and the different paths taken to overcome them. The book addresses processes of building social orders and examines the contribution of state institutions to social and cultural integration and disintegration. It analyses institutional and personnel continuities that have outlasted the great political changes of the twentieth century and addresses the expansion of state activity in shaping property relations in agriculture and industry as well as in social security and family politics.
