"This collection of essays offers a new lens through which to examine Spain's cinema production, following the decades of isolation imposed by the Franco regime. The seventeen key films analysed in the volume span a period of thirty-five years that has been crucial in the development of Spain, Spanish democracy, and Spanish cinema. These films encompass different genres (horror, thriller, melodrama, social realism, documentary), both popular (Los abrazos rotos/Broken Embraces, Vicky Cristina Barcelona) and more select art house fare (En la ciudad de Sylvia/In the City of Sylvia, El espíritu de la colmena/Spirit of the Beehive), and languages (English, as both first and second language, Basque, Spanish, Catalan, and French). The volume offers an expanded understanding of 'national' cinemas that negotiates the global co-production networks that fund the production of contemporary films in Spain. Furthermore, it provides treatments of key works by Guillermo del Toro and Lucrecia Martel, alongside an examination of the ways in which both established auteurs (Almodóvar, José Garci, Carlos Saura) and younger generations of filmmakers (Cesc Gay, Alejandro Amenábar, Iciar Bollaín) have harnessed cinematic language towards a commentary on the nation-state, wider issues of landscape, and the politics of historical and cultural memory. The result is a bold new study of the ways in which film has created new prisms (or indeed stereotypes) that have determined how Spain is positioned in the global marketplace."--P. [4] of cover.

The Trojan Horse traces the growth of commercial sponsorship in the public sphere since the 1960s, its growing importance for the arts since 1980 and its spread into areas such as education and health. The authors' central argument is that the image of sponsorship as corporate benevolence has served to routinize and legitimate the presence of commerce within the public sector. The central metaphor is of such sponsorship as a Trojan Horse helping to facilitate the hollowing out of the public sector by private agencies and private finance. The authors place the study in the context of the more g

Drawing on two decades of research, Treisman analyzes the paradoxes in Russian politics and society, illuminating why the disintegration of the U.S.S.R. wasn't more violent, the repercussions of the Chechen wars, the "sacred place" vodka holds in the Russian imagination (and its pernicious effect on Russia's demographics), and how, 20 years after the fall of communism, relations between Russia and the U.S. remain so frosty. Yet as Treisman convincingly argues, most of the world's international problems--nuclear proliferation, Islamic terrorism, global warming--will be difficult to solve without Russia's help

La culture matérielle de l’école, en tant que témoignage et marque du rapport de l’homme à l’objet, constitue pour l’historien un matériau permettant de mieux appréhender le passé. Dans le milieu de l’éducation, elle est à la fois un moyen d’apprentissage et une composante de l’acte pédagogique et devient la trace nécessaire à sa compréhension et à sa contextualisation. Ce livre vise à souligner les similitudes mais aussi les particularités apparaissant, à travers les objets éducatifs, dans les différents états européens, et ce, sur la longue durée, du XVIe à nos jours. La culture matérielle est donc à la fois « un fait » régional, national et européen, administratif et politique, économique et culturel, et elle appartient en cela, à l’instar du patrimoine et de la mémoire, à la fois au passé et au présent
