The Specter of Dictatorship
Reveals how the U.S. Supreme Court's presidentialism threatens our democracy and what to do about it. Donald Trump's presidency made many Americans wonder whether our system of checks and balances would prove robust enough to withstand an onslaught from a despotic chief executive. In The Specter of Dictatorship, David Driesen analyzes the chief executive's role in the democratic decline of Hungary, Poland, and Turkey and argues that an insufficiently constrained presidency is one of the most important systemic threats to democracy. Driesen urges the U.S. to learn from the mistakes of these failing democracies. Their experiences suggest, Driesen shows, that the Court must eschew its reliance ...
The Max Planck Handbooks in European Public Law
The Max Planck Handbooks in European Public Law describe and analyze public law of the European legal space, an area that encompasses not only the law of the European Union but also the European Convention on Human Rights and, importantly, the domestic public laws of European states. Recognizing that the ongoing vertical and horizontal processes of European integration make legal comparison the task of our time for both scholars and practitioners, the series aims to foster the development of a specifically European legal pluralism and to contribute to the legitimacy and efficiency of European public law. The first volume of the series began this enterprise with an appraisal of the evolution ...
Polska polityka zagraniczna 1918–2023
Przedmiotem oceny jest zbiór siedmiu opracowań pióra: – Ryszarda Stemplowskiego (wstęp i zakończenie), – Marka Kornata (lata 1918-1939), – Wojciecha Materskiego (1939-1945), – Piotra Długołęckiego (1945-1989), – Andrzeja Friszke (1989-2015), – Artura Nowaka-Fara (2015-2023). Wszyscy autorzy są profesjonalnymi historykami, cenionymi badaczami – autorami wielu prac naukowych. Prezentują w tym tomie w sposób skrótowy wyniki swoich dotychczasowych studiów. Przedstawione teksty są pierwszym podejściem zawodowych historyków do całościowej syntezy ponadstuletniej historii polityki zagranicznej Państwa Polskiego po uzyskaniu niepodległości – po 123 latach od momentu jej utraty w wyniku zaborów. (...) Polska – jako państwo – była wystawiona w ostatnim stuleciu na wyzwania, którym nie byłoby w stanie podołać żadne państwo europejskie. Mam na myśli szczególnie lata 1918–1939. (...) Wyzwania były ponad siły jednego państwa, ale odpowiedzialność elit politycznych i poszczególnych przywódców powinna być przedmiotem rzetelnej oceny. z recenzji wydawniczej prof. Adama Daniela Rotfelda

The Civil Service in Poland
The book analyzes the theoretical and practical aspects of civil service in Polish public administration and discusses it in a European context. While civil service is explored from a comparative, historical and systemic perspective, the study takes a close look at the history of Polish civil service from 1922 to 2014, civil service in the Second Republic, the status of civil servants during the Polish People's Republic and the formation of civil service after 1989. There is a special focus on solutions adopted in the light of the Civil Service Act of November 21st, 2008, and the importance of civil service for the modernisation process of public administration in Poland.
Typological Urbanism
How can architecture today be simultaneously relevant to its urban context and at the very forefront of design? For a decade or so, iconic architecture has been fuelled by the market economy and consumers' insatiable appetite for the novel and the different. The relentless speed and scale of urbanisation, with its ruptured, decentralised and fast-changing context, though, demands a rethink of the role of the designer and the function of architecture. This title of 2 confronts and questions the profession's and academia's current inability to confidently and comprehensively describe, conceptualise, theorise and ultimately project new ideas for architecture in relation to the city. In so doing, it provides a potent alternative for projective cities: Typological Urbanism. This pursues and develops the strategies of typological reasoning in order to re-engage architecture with the city in both a critical and speculative manner. Architecture and urbanism are no longer seen as separate domains, or subservient to each other, but as synthesising disciplines and processes that allow an integrating and controlling effect on both the city and its built environment.
