Minority Language Media
This book provides an overview of the current state of minority-language media, from policy formulation to practice, in various contexts around the world. In the same line, it presents the main challenges and new opportunities in view of digitalization and the influence of new media, providing a complete and useful perspective on the topic.

Post-World War One Plebiscites and Their Legacies
Plebiscites, or referendums, are epitomes of direct democracy and the right of self-determination. While direct democracy has always been a key subject in the theory and practice of western liberal democracies, the issue of self-determination has been propelled to the fore by the hegemonistic moves of Russia. By providing a historical analysis of the post-World War One plebiscites, this book deals with enduring, painfully contemporary, and in in any case fundamental, concepts. The contributors to this edited volume approach the referendums comparatively. After grounding the analysis theoretically, the authors look at detailed aspects of individual cases, with the two plebiscites held in the ...

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
Referendums and Ethnic Conflict
Although referendums have been used for centuries to settle ethnonational conflicts, there has yet been no systematic study or generalized theory concerning their effectiveness. Referendums and Ethnic Conflict fills the gap with a comparative and empirical analysis of all the referendums held on ethnic and national issues from the French Revolution to the 2012 referendum on statehood for Puerto Rico. Drawing on political theory and descriptive case studies, Matt Qvortrup creates typologies of referendums that are held to endorse secession, redraw disputed borders, legitimize a policy of homogenization, or otherwise manage ethnic or national differences. He considers the circumstances that compel politicians to resort to direct democracy, such as regime change, and the conditions that might exacerbate a violent response. Qvortrup offers a clear-eyed assessment of the problems raised when conflict resolution is sought through referendum as well as the conditions that are likely to lead to peaceful outcomes. This original political framework will provide a vital resource in the ongoing investigation into how democracy and nationalism may be reconciled.
