CSR and Socially Responsible Investing Strategies in Transitioning and Emerging Economies
One of the most important activities of enterprises today is responsible entrepreneurship.

Democratic Elections in Poland, 1991-2007
This book is a political history of democratic elections in Poland from the first fully competitive parliamentary elections in 1991 to the unexpected, most recent election in 2007. Until now, there has been no equivalent study covering similar developments in this, or any other, post-communist country; this book fills the gap and provides a detailed electoral perspective on the trajectory of political development in the context of post-authoritarian change. It also provides an invaluable account of the evolution of electoral processes and institution-building in the context of democratic regime development. The major themes of the book centre on the complex, problematic development of Poland...

Historia Polityczna Polski 1989-2012
"Cztery prezydentury, osiem kadencji parlamentu. Wydarzenia rozciągające się od rozmów Okrągłego Stołu, aż do katastrofy smoleńskiej i drugiej kadencji Donalda Tuska. Historia polityczna Polski 1989–2012 to najbardziej aktualny i fachowy bilans dziejów III Rzeczpospolitej. Antoni Dudek – jeden z najlepszych polskich historyków i politologów – podejmuje rzetelną próbę ukazania współczesnej sytuacji politycznej. Śledzi losy liderów partyjnych i kierowanych przez nich ugrupowań. Rzuca światło na działania poszczególnych rządów oraz kontrowersje otaczające kolejne prezydentury: Lecha Wałęsy, Aleksandra Kwaśniewskiego, Lecha Kaczyńskiego i Bronisława Komorowskiego. Przypomina najważniejsze konflikty ostatniego dwudziestolecia i mierzy się z najbardziej aktualnymi problemami. Pisze przystępnie i rzetelnie. Przede wszystkim zaś stara się uczciwie szukać prawdy."
Animation Behind the Iron Curtain
Animation Behind the Iron Curtain is a journey of discovery into the world of Soviet era animation from Eastern Bloc countries. From Jerzy Kucia's brutally exquisite Reflections in Poland to the sci-fi adventure of Ott in Space by Estonian puppet master Elbert Tuganov to the endearing Gopo's little man by Ion Popescu-Gopo in Romania, this excursion into Soviet era animation brings to light magnificent art, ruminations on the human condition, and celebrations of innocence and joy. As art reveals the spirit of the times, animation art of Eastern Europe during the Cold War, funded by the Soviet states, allowed artists to create works illuminating to their experiences, hopes, and fears. The poli...
Democratic Control of Intelligence Services
The events of September 11, 2001 sharply revived governmental and societal anxieties in many democratic countries concerning the threats posed by terrorism, organized crime, the proliferation and use of weapons of mass destruction, and other complex security threats.

This comprehensive volume discusses the various challenges of establishing and maintaining accountable and democratically controlled intelligence services, drawing both from states with well-estab...
