Notable Selections The Sublime Object of Ideology by Slavoj Zizek Canakya on Management by Ashok R Garde The Burden of Democracy by Pratap Bhanu Mehta Beyond Secularism - The Rights of Religious Minorities by Neera Chandhoke Spectres of Capitalism - A Critique of Current Intellectual Fashions by Samir Amin   What is Political Theory and Why do We Need It? by Rajeev Bhargava (ProductID: 27287 ~ ISBN: 9780195699333 ~ Pub Year: 2010 ~ Pages: 436 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Hardcover ~ Publisher: Oxford University Press) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $59.95 USD Political theory is widely seen in India as an esoteric inquiry unrelated to social and political practice and largely irrelevant to the urgent or enduring problems of our times. Contrary to this view, Rajeev Bhargava argues that it emerges from practices and has the potential to return to them—to stabilize, endorse, or challenge them. This book brings an Indian flavour to a largely west-oriented political theory.   (Explore Similar Items) Imperialism : From the colonial age to the present by Harry Magdoff (ProductID: 26283 ~ ISBN: 9789350020081 ~ Pub Year: 2009 ~ Pages: 279 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Paperback ~ Publisher: Aakar Books) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $24.95 USD This volume contains a series of essays aimed at illuminating from a Marxist point of view the theory, history, and roots of imperialism – ranging from the period of Western Europe’s global expansion to the era of the multinational corporation, and from the days of colonialism to modern imperialism without colonies.   (Read Table of Contents)   (Explore Similar Items) The Explosion - : Marxism and the French Upheaval by Henri Lefebvre (ProductID: 26285 ~ ISBN: 9789350020029 ~ Pub Year: 2009 ~ Pages: 157 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Paperback ~ Publisher: Aakar Books) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $16.25 USD Professor Lefebvre rehearses for the reader the full sweep of Marxist thinking about social change, and investigates carefully and critically the work of Herbert Marcuse in the light of the French explosion.   (Read Table of Contents)   (Explore Similar Items) Late Marx and the Russian Road - Marx and the peripheries of capitalism by Teodor Shanin (ProductID: 26286 ~ ISBN: 9789350020036 ~ Pub Year: 2009 ~ Pages: 286 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Paperback ~ Publisher: Aakar Books) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $24.95 USD This book addresses in a new way Marx’s attitudes to societies we describe today as ‘developing’ or ‘peripheral’ and to social and socialist theories which originated in them and which reflect their particularities.   (Read Table of Contents)   (Explore Similar Items) The National Question - Selected Writings by Rosa Luxemburg (ProductID: 26284 ~ ISBN: 9789350020050 ~ Pub Year: 2009 ~ Pages: 320 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Paperback ~ Publisher: Aakar Books) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $22.50 USD Originally written in Polish, Collected here are Rosa Luxemburg’s writings on the question of national self-determination and its relationship with socialism.They present some of the most important work by one of the twentieth century’s most significant socialist theorists.   (Read Table of Contents)   (Explore Similar Items) The Threat to Reason by Dan Hind (ProductID: 26316 ~ ISBN: 8189059149 ~ Pub Year: 2008 ~ Pages: 198 ~ Language: English ~ Binding: Paperback ~ Publisher: Navayana) Usually Delivers in 10 - 15 Business Days           Our Price: $17.75 USD The Threat to Reason is a vital defence of the Enlightenment as a democratic force against state and corporation and a striking atheist attack on 'fundamentalist' atheists such as Richard Dawkins.   (Read Table of Contents)   (Explore Similar Items) Socialism is Great !
