halls of political power and home to our daily lives, pitting “official democracy” and “democracy<br />

from below” against one another in a lively debate.<br />

Today, one in five Arabs is between the ages of fifteen and twenty-four. Young, optimistic, and<br />

increasingly cosmopolitan, their generation will shape the region’s future. Drawing on interviews,<br />

surveys, and other research conducted with young people in fifteen countries across the Arab<br />

world, Momani describes the passion for entrepreneurship, reform, and equality among Arab<br />

US & CDN $36.95<br />

Available as an ebook<br />

Global Issues is a pedagogically rich text that offers<br />

a unique way of looking at contemporary issues, such as<br />

food security and global conflict, from a cross-cultural and<br />

multidisciplinary perspective. By exploring each issue in<br />

depth, students gain an applied understanding of more abstract concepts like conflict,<br />

globalization, culture, imperialism, human rights, and gender, while the cross-cultural approach<br />

encourages students to view the world from outside the Western box.<br />

Designed for introductory-level students in global and international studies, human geography,<br />

politics, and development studies, this highly accessible text offers instructors and students a<br />

unique way of matching the concepts they learn in the classroom with important issues in the<br />

world in which they live and work.<br />

and amendment, fiscal relations, institutional structures, intergovernmental relations, and judicial<br />

overview. The second edition has been extensively revised and updated and now includes two new<br />

chapters: “Fiscal Federalism” and “The Limits of Federalism.”<br />

Since the early 1980s, Latin American countries have been innovative in a range of policy and<br />

cultural experiences, including health care, voting, pensions, and multiculturalism. And yet, their<br />

policy innovations are rarely found in textbooks. This book addresses that gap, providing a<br />

fascinating and wide-ranging exploration of both the history of “looking down” at Latin America<br />

and the political, economic, and cultural “lessons” (including successes, failures, and unintended<br />

consequences) that should inform important policy discussions around the world. In accessible<br />

language, the authors provide a very refreshing introduction to Latin American societies.<br />

Highlighting eleven different topics in separate chapters, the thematic approach of Latin American<br />

<strong>Politics</strong> offers students the conceptual tools they need to analyze the political systems of all Latin<br />

American nations. The author strives to link Latin American phenomena—for example, the dynamics<br />

of democratic breakdowns as well as democratic transitions—to broader conceptual debates in<br />

comparative politics. Such an approach makes the book self-consciously comparative, allowing<br />

students to become stronger analysts of comparative politics and better political scientists in general.<br />

This pioneering collection offers a comprehensive investigation into<br />

how to study public policy in Latin America. It offers guidelines for<br />

refining current theories to suit Latin America’s contemporary<br />

institutional and socio-economic realities. The contributors accomplish<br />

this task by identifying the features of the region that shape public policy, including informal norms<br />

and practices, social inequality, and weak institutions.<br />

The history of Mexican labor migration suggests that Mexicans have<br />

been actively encouraged to migrate northward when labor markets<br />

are in short supply, only to be turned back during economic<br />

that define how corporations, consumers, and states involve Mexican immigrant laborers in the<br />

politics of production and consumption.<br />

biologist’s fetish with such limits, and the indebtedness of peripheral countries. Isla’s case study is<br />

the creation of the Arenal-Tilaran Conservation Area, which has dispossessed and disenfranchised<br />

subsistence farmers, expropriating their land, water, knowledge, and labour.<br />

In his new book, William Watson argues that focusing on inequality is both an error and a trap. It<br />

is an error because much inequality is “good,” the reward for thrift, industry, and invention. It is a<br />

trap because it leads us to fixate on the top end of the income distribution, rather than on those at<br />

the bottom who need help most. In fact, if we respond to growing inequality by fighting capitalism<br />

rather than poverty, we may end up both poorer and less equal. Explaining the complexities of<br />

modern economics in a clear, accessible style, The Inequality Trap is the must-read rejoinder to the<br />

idea that fighting inequality should be our top policy priority.<br />

Multicultural Cities offers a tour of three of North America’s premier<br />

multicultural metropolises, demonstrating the qualities that make<br />

these cities multicultural. Guided by the perspective that<br />

multiculturalism is the combination of cultural diversity with a<br />

common ground of values and institutions, the author examines the social geography, economy,<br />

and everyday life of each metropolitan area. His analysis spans the divide between Canada, where<br />

multiculturalism is official government policy, and the United States, where it is not.<br />

The Evolution of Great World Cities tells the tales of several urban<br />

centres—including Venice, Amsterdam, London, and New York<br />

City—at key junctures in their histories. Weaving together significant<br />

insights from urbanists such as Jane Jacobs and economists such as John Maynard Keynes, the<br />

author draws striking parallels between the functioning of ecosystems and of wealthy capitals.<br />
