Download or read book Between Plan and Market written by Raimo Blom and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the Baltic states continue to develop into free market economies, these nation's new legal and political institutions are still in a process of formation. Political organization is in a state of flux, labor relations and labor markets are practically nonexistent. These unusual conditions of change present challenging problems to the sociologist. Unique in approach, this book emphasizes techniques for merging systemic, social and communal levels of analysis, providing a coherent view in a difficult area of research. It is argued that cyclical, rather than linear concepts of change, are the more fruitful in evaluating mechanisms of social transformation.

Download or read book Mapping Worlds written by Rob Kitchin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social and cultural geography is practised by geographers from around the world. However, for various reasons including language and publishing traditions, knowledge of the research being undertaken can often remain confined to those working within those countries. This book draws together, for the first time into one volume, reports of social and cultural geography undertaken in several countries from around the world. It provides an important overview of geographic ideas and traditions, and the history of human geography more generally, allowing comparison between countries and details of key studies and references. As such, the book will be of interest to geographers schooled in different national traditions, and those interested in the production and history of geographic knowledge. Entries are written in both English and the country’s own national language.

Download or read book The Other Russia written by Leo Granberg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most recent research seeks to explain contemporary changes in Russia by analysing the decisions of Russian leaders, oligarchs and politicians based in Moscow. This book examines another Russia, one of ordinary people changing their environment and taking opportunities to provoke societal changes in small towns and the countryside. Russia is a resource-rich society and the country’s strategy and institutional structure are built on the most valuable of these resources: oil and gas. Analysing the implications of this situation at the local level, this book offers chapters on resource use, local authorities, enterprises, poverty and types of individual, as well as a final chapter which places local societies within the framework of the Russian politicised economy. Based on extensive empirical data gathered through more than 400 semi-structured interviews with entrepreneurs, teachers, social workers and those working for the local authorities, this book sheds light on the role of local activity in the development of Russian society and is essential reading for students and scholars interested in Russia and its politics.
