The emergence of Green parties throughout Europe during the 1980s marked the arrival of a "new’" form of political movement and a challenge to existing party models. However, since the "green wave" of the 1980s these parties have struggled to solidify their electoral successes in the face of stiff opposition from established political parties. This original book, the first to address the future direction of the European Green parties, presents an in-depth, thematic comparative approach to the analysis of recent Green party development and change, questioning whether the process of party

The Hermeneutics of the Subject is the third volume in the collection of Michel Foucault+s lectures at the Collge de France, where Foucault+s candid and wide-ranging lectures influenced groundbreaking works like The History of Sexuality and Madness and Civilization. In the lectures comprising this volume, Foucault focuses on how the -self+ and the -care of the self+ have been conceived during the period of antiquity, beginning with Socrates. The problems of the ethical formation of the self, Foucault argues, form the background for modern conceptions of the self and remain at the center of c

This book offers an accessible and broadly conceived introduction to social psychology. Written in a lucid and lively style, it assumes no prior knowledge of the field, and is the ideal textbook to get students thinking about the subject. The volume covers the main issues of social psychology ? as well as many classic studies ? such as self and personality, interpersonal relations, language and communication, altruism and aggression, group processes, attitudes, and intergroup relations. What sets this book apart is its coverage of less orthodox topics which are often neglected in intro

Despite their global importance, little is known about the few existing examples of impacts into marine environments and icy targets. They are among the least understood and studied parts of impact crater geology The icy impacts are also of great importance in understanding the developments of the outer planets and their satellites such as Mars or Europa. Furthermore, the impact mechanisms, crater formation and collapse, melt production and the ejecta distribution are scarcely known for impact on targets other than the ’classical’ solid silicates of the continental crust.
