Depuis la chute du mur de Berlin, les discours politiques et les valeurs qu'ils véhiculent n'ont plus le monopole de la promotion de la démocratie et de la bonne gouvernance. Des agences de coopération, des ONG, des fondations et des organisations internationales coproduisent des politiques publiques dans un certain nombre de pays en transition et qui sont en train de réformer leur système politique. Cet ouvrage réunit des études de cas concernant une variété de pays (Afghanistan, Sénégal, Kirghizstan, Cuba, Serbie, Bulgarie, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bolivie, Azerbaïdjan, Indonésie) pour mettre au jour l'unicité d'un nouveau dispositif de pouvoir transnational qui s'impose à l'échelle mondiale. Guidés par une démarche comparative, les auteurs de cet ouvrage tentent de répondre à la question suivante : Ce nouveau dispositif participe-t-il à l'universalisation de la démocratie ou à la généralisation d'une forme de pouvoir transnational inédit ?

Torre David is an incomplete skyscraper in the center of the Venezuelan capital Caracas that has been occupied and reconstructed by local residents. Work on the building, named after the financial investor David Brillembourg, who died in 1993, was suspended during the Venezuelan financial crisis of 1994. After the office tower— the third highest in Venezuela—had stood empty for many years, it was taken over by the local population in 2008. The occupants made the building their own with improvisation and skill—it is a "vertical favela," now containing not just housing but also other everyday facilities such as an improvised doctor’s office, shops, and more. Photographer Iwan Baan has documented Torre David and its occupants, creating a portrait that captures the contradictions of the place while at the same time revealing urban structures that have emerged dynamically and without planning. Alfredo Brillembou rg was born in New York in 1961. In 1993 he founded Urban-Think Tank in Caracas, Venezuela. Since May 2010, Brillembourg holds a chair in architecture and urban design at the Swiss Institute of Technology, Zürich. Hubert Klumpne r was born in Salzburg in 1965. In 1998 he joined Alfredo Brillembourg as director of Urban-Think Tank in Caracas. Since 2010, Klumpner holds a chair in architecture and urban design at the Swiss Institute of Technology, Zürich.

As the Roaring Twenties lurched into the Great Depression, to be followed by the scourge of Nazi Germany and World War II, American mathematicians pursued their research, positioned themselves collectively within American science, and rose to global mathematical hegemony. How did they do it? This book explores the institutional, financial, social, and political forces that shaped and supported this community in the first half of the 20th century. In doing so, Karen Hunger Parshall debunks the widely held view that American mathematics only thrived after European émigrés fled to the shores of the United States.
