Hobbes Against Friendship
This book explores why and how Thomas Hobbes – the 17th century founder of political science -- contributed to the modern marginalisation of ‘friendship’, a concept that stood in the foreground of ancient moral and political thought and that is currently undergoing a revival. The study shows that Hobbes did not question the occurrence of friendship; rather, he rejected friendship as an explanatory and normative principle of peace and cooperation. Hobbes’s stance was influential because it captured the spirit of modernity- its individualism, nominalism, practical scepticism, and materialism. Hobbes’s legacy has a bearing on contemporary debates about civic, international and global friendship.

The Spatial Impact of Economic Changes in Europe
"The economies of Europe are changing rapidly. More and more employment and output comes from the service sector: less employment is to be found in agriculture, mining and manufacturing although output has been sustained. Economies have deindustrialised, the environment has improved, the large factories have been broken up into networks of smaller enterprises; products, production and labour have all become more flexible. This book examines these processes of economic change in western Europe, in southern Europe and in east-central Europe." "These changes bring problems as well as opportunities. Unemployed manual workers are not re-employed in the service sector; there is increased social and economic polarisation; Europe has suffered from the increasing levels of international competition. The final section of the book concerns policy intervention to tackle some of these problems. Policies for equity, efficiency and environmental protection are examined as are the policy framework and the political basis for policy."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

European Cities in Competition
Derived from the brief of a Working Group of the European Science Foundation, this book is concerned with societal response. This is interpreted, in a limited way, as the actions of and through the local or regional administrations. It brings the discussion into the realm of public sector initiatives.
