The Radical Right in Switzerland
There has been a tendency amongst scholars to view Switzerland as a unique case, and comparative scholarship on the radical right has therefore shown little interest in the country. Yet, as the author convincingly argues, there is little justification for maintaining the notion of Swiss exceptionalism, and excluding the Swiss radical right from cross-national research. His book presents the first comprehensive study of the development of the radical right in Switzerland since the end of the Second World War and therefore fills a significant gap in our knowledge. It examines the role that parties and political entrepreneurs of the populist right, intellectuals and publications of the New Right, as well as propagandists and militant groups of the extreme right assume in Swiss politics and society. The author shows that post-war Switzerland has had an electorally and discursively important radical right since the 1960s that has exhibited continuity and persistence in its organizations and activities. Recently, this has resulted in the consolidation of a diverse Swiss radical right that is now established at various levels within the political and public arena.

The Dark Chronicles
It's 1969, and MI6 agent Paul Dark has spent the last twenty-five years betraying his country.

Bringing together three novels featuring double agent Paul Dark, The Dark Chronicles journeys from London to Nigeria and from Rome to Moscow in a heart-pounding saga of dubious loyalties, deadly conspiracies, and ruthless acts of revenge at the height of the Cold War.

Song of Treason
May 1, 1969. Blackmailed into serving Moscow, double agent Paul Dark now finds himself a target for both exposure, and assassination. Desperate to escape his predicament, Dark gambles everything on one last throw of the dice, exposing his Soviet handler to the British. But before long, he finds he has no choice but to go on the run again, and the race is on to stop a deadly conspiracy that dates back to the early years of the Cold War. The second part of the Paul Dark trilogy, Free Country is another sweat-soaked Sixties-set spy thriller in the tradition of Len Deighton and Frederick Forsyth.
Une société provinciale face à son devenir : le Vendômois aux xviiie et xixe siècles
À l'origine de ce livre, une volonté - mieux connaître et mieux comprendre les horizons culturels des populations provinciales aux XVIIIe et XIXe siècles -, et un choix - enraciner la recherche dans un terrain local, celui du pays vendômois. L'ouvrage rétablit d'abord les réalités économiques et sociales de ce pays au XVIIIe siècle, dans toute la diversité de ses terroirs, de la vallée du Loir aux plateaux, des bocages du Perche aux vastes horizons de la Beauce. Cette présentation réalisée, l'enquête peut en venir à son objet central, en examinant comment sont vécus et pensés dans la région le temps et l'espace, comment aussi s'y organise la relation à l'écrit. Sur ces ...
