The New Deal: A Global History provides a radically new interpretation of a pivotal period in US history. The first comprehensive study of the New Deal in a global context, the book compares American responses to the international crisis of capitalism and democracy during the 1930s to responses by other countries around the globe--not just in Europe but also in Latin America, Asia, and other parts of the world. Work creation, agricultural intervention, state planning, immigration policy, the role of mass media, forms of political leadership, and new ways of ruling America's colonies--all had parallels elsewhere and unfolded against a backdrop of intense global debates. By avoiding the distortions of American exceptionalism, Kiran Klaus Patel shows how America's reaction to the Great Depression connected it to the wider world. Among much else, the book explains why the New Deal had enormous repercussions on China; why Franklin D. Roosevelt studied the welfare schemes of Nazi Germany; and why the New Dealers were fascinated by cooperatives in Sweden--but ignored similar schemes in Japan. Ultimately, Patel argues, the New Deal provided the institutional scaffolding for the construction of American global hegemony in the postwar era, making this history essential for understanding both the New Deal and America's rise to global leadership.show more

Attempts to understand the dilemmas average Nigerians face every day as they try to get ahead - or just survive - in a society riddled with corruption. This book paints a portrait of Nigerian corruption - of nationwide fuel shortages in Africa's oil-producing giant, Internet cafes where the young launch their e-mail scams, and more.by All Measurements Nigeria, Richly Endowed With Natural And Human Resources And The United States' Fifth Largest Source Of Imported Oil, Should Be One Of The Most Prosperous Of The World's Developing Countries. Instead It Is One Of The Poorest. No One Has Done A Better Job Than Daniel Jordan Smith Of Showing How And Why The Cancer Of Corruption Has Hobbled The Giant Of Africa. A Culture Of Corruption Is An Absorbing Cultural Study By An Anthropologist Who Deeply Cares About The Society Into Which He Has Married.--walter Carrington, Former U.s. Ambassador To Nigeriathis Is A Path-breaking Study Of A Challenging Topic For African Studies, Anthropology, Development Economics, And Social Sciences In General. If Any Country In Africa Should Be Able To Join The World's Newly Industrialized Countries, It Should Be Nigeria In View Of Its Size And Its Oil Wealth. The Common Explanation Of Its Constant Failure To Do So Is Corruption. The Great Merit Of This Book Is To Show That Corruption Has Many Faces In Everyday Life. The Term Is All Too Often Used As A Blanket Notion. Smith Shows How Misleading This Is By Studying It As A Daily Reality With Manifold Expressions. The Book Fills An Urgent Need. We Must Better Understand The Reasons Why Africa's Giant Is Stagnating If We Want To Be Able To Say Something About The Continent's Present-day Crisis.--peter Geschiere, University Of Amsterdamnigeria Is Known Globally As A Center For Scams Of A Variety And Audacity That Are Astounding To Those Who Trust That Their Own Societies And Economies Run According To 'the Rules.' In a Culture Of Corruption, Daniel Jordan Smith Draws On Many Years Of Living In Nigeria As An Ngo Representative And Anthropologist To Cast A Very Wide Net Around Nigerian Corruption, To Include Contemporary Official And Unofficial Malfeasance Of All Kinds. His Exposition Is Graphic, Detailed, And Broadly Supported. He Doesn't Flinch Before Quite Terrifying Case Material. There Is No Other Work That Covers The Same Ground So Clearly And In Such A Nuanced And Observant Manner.--jane I. Guyer, Johns Hopkins University jan Kees Van Donge - Modern African Studies this Is A Very Good Book That Is Relevant Far Beyond Nigeria.... Daniel Jordan Smith Has Written A Book That Enlightens And Entertains: A Great Achievement.

With employers offering free flu shots and pharmacies expanding into one-stop shops to prevent everything from shingles to tetanus, vaccines are ubiquitous in contemporary life. The past fifty years have witnessed an enormous upsurge in vaccines and immunization in the United States: American children now receive more vaccines than any previous generation, and laws requiring their immunization against a litany of diseases are standard. Yet, while vaccination rates have soared and cases of preventable infections have plummeted, an increasingly vocal cross section of Americans have questioned the safety and necessity of vaccines. In Vaccine Nation, Elena Conis explores this complicated history and its consequences for personal and public health. Vaccine Nation opens in the 1960s, when government scientists?triumphant following successes combating polio and smallpox?considered how the country might deploy new vaccines against what they called the ?milder? diseases, including measles, mumps, and rubella. In the years that followed, Conis reveals, vaccines fundamentally changed how medical professionals, policy administrators, and ordinary Americans came to perceive the diseases they were designed to prevent. She brings this history up to the present with an insightful look at the past decade's controversy over the implementation of the Gardasil vaccine for HPV, which sparked extensive debate because of its focus on adolescent girls and young women. Through this and other examples, Conis demonstrates how the acceptance of vaccines and vaccination policies has been as contingent on political and social concerns as on scientific findings. By setting the complex story of American vaccination within the country's broader history, Vaccine Nation goes beyond the simple story of the triumph of science over disease and provides a new and perceptive account of the role of politics and social forces in medicine. show more

The Theories of Development: Capitalism, Colonialism and Dependency.This is a new introductory text providing an up-to-date account of leading theories of development. The book includes a discussion of classical accounts of development, particularly that of Marx, but also considers current debates on the issue. Theories of imperialism, neo-imperialism, dependency, world systems theory and other conceptions are all given full and balanced consideration. A feature of the work is the connections drawn between theoretical interpretation and empirical application: in this respect, the author concentrates particularly upon drawing materials from the Latin American experiences. Readable, accurate and incisive, the book also provides an original standpoint upon problems of development. It will be of interest to students and professionals in sociology, political sciences and anthropology.
