'Che' Guevara: The Economics of Revolution
Автор: Yaffe Helen
Издательство: Palgrave, 2009
Жанр: Palgrave
Страниц: 368 страниц
Загрузил: lubacha, 10 сентября 2015
   This book presents a unique exploration of the impact of Che Guevara as economist and politician, providing a comprehensive exploration of a little-discussed, but central, aspect of Guevara's life and career. It provides a comprehensive overview of a forgotten aspect of Che Guevara's life — his economic contributions to Cuba while in government. It contributes to a reassessment of Che Guevara's legacy. The research is based on new archival material, including transcripts of internal meetings, internal reports, and over 70 interviews with nearly 50 of Guevara's closest collaborators. Che Guevara is an iconic figure, four decades after his death. Yet his most significant contribution is largely unknown — his work as a member of the Cuban government is rarely discussed. This book explores his impact on Cuba's economy, through fascinating new archival material and interviews.

How English Became the Global Language
Автор: Northrup David

Жанр: Palgrave

   While there have been many books on the history of globalization to date, most have stressed economics and politics. Cultural globalization, of which the emergence of English as the world's first global language is a prime example, has been comparatively neglected. In this book, the first written about the globalization of the English language by a professional historian, the exploration of English's global ascendancy receives its proper historical due. Historians have traditionally left the history of language to linguists and other language specialists, and this brief, accessible volume breaks new ground in its organization, emphasis on causation, and conclusions.
