Abstract

This book focuses on the current political and security issues with the U.S. and Kenya relations. The U.S. government views Kenya as a strategic partner and anchor state in East Africa, and as critical to counterterrorism efforts in the region. Kenya has repeatedly been a target of terrorist attacks, and, as the September 2013 attack on an upscale Nairobi shopping mall underscores, terrorist threats against international and domestic targets in Kenya remain a serious concern. Kenya has enjoyed a long history of economic leadership in East Africa as the largest and most advanced economy in the

Abstract

Since the process of opening-up began China has followed a unique path that's combined progressive economic policies with staying true to its socialist principles. Modern history demonstrates that achieving economic growth within the parameters of a one-party socialist state is rarely attainable, yet China has been able to achieve this on a vast scale. This major new two-volume work, publishedin partnership with China Social Sciences Press, draws on the expertise of China's leading scholars to show you the reasons behind this success. Editor Zhao Jianying, the president of China's prestigious China Social Science Press, has gathered together material from China's leading thinkers and academics on exactly how China has been able to forge this truly unique model. These include political leaders, government advisers and famous scholars. In addition Zhao Jianying has hand-picked excerpts from key speeches made by China's leaders both current and former to help set the scene. Readers will learn how social reforms have overlapped with economic reforms alongside an awareness of the philosophical elements of contemporary Chinese culture to help create the China we see today. The contributors supply authoritative aimed at academics and students involved in sociology and social science subjects as well as people researching or studying Asian/Chinese studies, plus economists and social science professionals who want to understand China's economic and social characteristics. --

One of the few Western commentators to have lived in the region, journalist Nick Holdstock travels into the heart of the province reveals the Uyghur story as one of repression and hardship. With Islamic terrorism in China likely to increase over the next decade, how the Party responds will have global repercussions. 'China's forgotten people' explains why terrorism is on the rise in the world's most powerful one-party state, and what this means for the way we think about China.--

Abstract

In Conflict, Identity, and State Formation in East Timor 2000-2017 , James Scambary analyses the complex interplay between local and national level conflict and politics in the independence period. Communal conflict, often enacted by a variety of informal groups such as gangs and martial arts groups, has been a constant feature of East Timor’s post-independence landscape. A focus on statebuilding, however, in academic discourse has largely overlooked this conflict, and the informal networks that drive Timorese politics and society. Drawing on over a decade of fieldwork, Scambary documents the range of different cultural and historical dynamics and identities that drive conflict, and by which local conflicts and non-state actors became linked to national conflict, and laid the foundations of a clientelist state.
