This book explores the emergence, and in Poland, Hungary, and Russia the coming to power, of politicians and political parties rejecting the consensus around market reforms, democratization, and rule of law that has characterized moves toward an "open society" from the 1990s. It discusses how over the last decade these political actors, together with various think tanks, intellectual circles, and religious actors, have increasingly presented themselves as "conservatives," and outlines how these actors are developing a new local brand of conservatism as a full-fledged ideology that counters the perceived liberal overemphasis on individual rights and freedom, and differs from the ideology of the established, present-day conservative parties of Western Europe. Overall, the book argues that the "renaissance of conservatism" in these countries represents variations on a new, illiberal conservatism that aims to re-establish a strong state sovereignty defining and pursuing a national path of development.

The Index of American Periodical Verse is an important resource for contemporary poetry research, serving as a continuing record of trends in the output of famous and lesser-known poets and the cultural influences they represent.

Continuing the tradition of this helpful reference source, this twenty-ninth annual volume of the Index was produced with the cooperation of 291 participating periodicals; nearly 7,000 entries (6,977) for individual poets and translators and more than 20,000 entries (20,410) for individual poems. A separate index provides access by title or first line.
Schwarz-Grün hat Konjunktur – und: Schwarz-Grün polarisiert. Publizistisch wie politisch. Während das deutsche Feuilleton leidenschaftlich über schwarz-grüne „Lebenswelten“ debattiert, sind Bündnisse zwischen Union und Grünen heute auf vielen Ebenen politische Realität – oder bereits wieder Vergangenheit. „Hirngespinst“, „Bündnis zweiter Wahl“ oder „Zukunftsprojekt“: Wofür steht jene einst exotische politische Farbkonstellation? Erstmals widmet sich nun ein Sammelband umfassend dieser Frage, in dem rund 40 Vertreter aus Wissenschaft, Medien und Politik schwarz-grüne Milieus, Erfahrungen, Inhalte und Perspektiven ausleuchten und dabei Chancen und Risiken dieses Bündnismodells aufzeigen.
