Party System Changes and Challenges to Democracy
This open access book focuses on the nexus between “party system stability” and “democratic consolidation”, using Slovenia as a case study.

On the other, Slovenia shares some similarities with other parts of the former Yugoslavia – especially its experiences with the politic...
Lordship and Locality in the Long Twelfth Century
A new perspective on lordship in England between the Norman Conquest and Magna Carta.

"A study of the members of the family, their estates and their identity provides an insight into the problems that holding lands over such a wide area presented and how these problems were dealt with.

The Use of Spices and Medicinals as Bioactive Protectants for Grains
Opinion now favours a shift away from reliance on conventional insecticides towards the use of more natural, sustainable methods of protecting stored foods from insect damage. This bulletin considers alternative materials applicable for use as food storage protectants, concentrating particularly on plants which have found other uses as food spices or in medical applications. Over 100 plant species are described in detail with photographs. There is also a brief update on current research on the use of plant materials as storage protectants.
