Women, Work and Coping: Multi - disciplinary Approach to Workplace Stress
Library stickers on the spine, inside of the cover and FEP, Stamp on title page., Written by feminists and other researchers from the disciplines of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and management science, the 14 essays in this collection are about women's experience of paid work and women's ways of coping with employment stress. The opening essays highlight the social and cultural changes that have compelled women to develop new coping strategies. Several contributing authors examine specific workplace structures and describe women's experiences in different occupational contexts - whether hostile or hospitable. Shifting from a structural to an individual perspective, other contributors deal with psychosocial factors, such as gender differences, that have been found to moderate stress and enhance the coping process. They analyze individual experiences with work - related stressors, focusing on the mediating effects of cognitive appraisals. This work contains contributions by Nina Colwill, Bruce E. Compas, Esther R. Greenglass, Barbara Gutek, Catherine A. Heaney, Sharon E. Kahn, Ronald C. Kessler, Karen Korabik, Bonita C. Long, Judi Marshall, Diana L. Mawson, Lisa M. McDonald, Pamela G. Orosan, Hazel M. Rosin, Craig A. Smith, Anne Statham, Allison Tom, Elaine Wethington, and Lois M. Verbrugge. Government Reference Library

The Internet Edge: Social, Technical and Legal Challenges for a Networked World
Library sticker on the spine and on the FEP, stamp on the FEP. The "Internet edge" is our collective struggle to change as the world becomes more connected. Turmoil at the Internet edge occurs around interacting social, legal and technological realms. Examples include issues of on - line privacy, censorship, digital copyright and untaxed business competition over the Net. Such issues reflect conflicts between values - local and global, individual and corporate, democratic and non - democratic. The book is an eagle's eye view of the Internet edge. It is about the experiences of those who encountered similar issues as they built precursors to the Net such as videotext, teletext and the Source. It is about the trends in technology that will make the Net of the next few years a very differenct experience from the desk - top surfing of today. It is also about how old myths of magic, power and control can help us to understand our fascination with and fear of new technologies Used

Padgett, Stephen
Organizing Democracy in Eastern Germany: Interest Groups in Post-communist Society
The emergence of interest group politics is one of the decisive factors in democratic transformation in post-communist society. Stephen Padgett argues that evidence from eastern Germany suggests that market transition produces rather open and fluid societies, in which group interests and identities are tenuous. Lacking a supportive social infrastructure, interest groups operate on 'entrepreneurial' lines, a form of associational activity which falls far short of pluralist ideals. With its accelerated transition to a market economy, eastern Germany provides a 'fast-forward' study of an 'advanced post-communist society' which enables us to anticipate the social structures and issues shaping interest-group politics in the newly-democratizing states of east-central Europe. Examining a number of different interest groups, and comparing a number of countries across east-central Europe, this book may also offer a vision of the future of interest-group politics in the West Clean Copy

From Vision to Reality: Implementing Europe's New Security Order
From Vision to Reality takes the reader past the fixation with political decisionmaking by focusing on the process of implementation that follows important policy decisions. The book identifies the intentions behind a collection of key policy decisions for establishing Europes new security order and investigates whether the implementation of those and subsequent decisions has resulted in the intended policy outcome.As well as a review of the implementations perspective, the book includes chapters on the main European security organizations (NATO, EU, WEU, OSCE, and EBRD) and on the relations between the new European security order and the UN, the United States, and Russia. }Much has been written about the various decisions to establish a new European security order based on a vision of a network of mutually reinforcing institutions. However, very little has been heard about what actually happened after the decisions were made and whether any of the good intentions expressed at the time were actually implemented. From Vision to Reality takes the reader past the fixation with political decisionmaking by focusing on the process of implementation that follows important policy decisions.

Europe in the World: The Persistence of Power Politics
What role can and should Europe play in the world? This analysis of international politics offers an exposition of the persistent features of power politics which Europe, in the form of the EU, should increasingly have to acknowledge, or adapt to. Using the resources of both political philosophy and diplomatic history, the book urges that the internal developments of western Europe over the last 50 years are making a common standpoint in foreign affairs increasingly necessary. Europe, it asserts, cannot remain preoccupied by international affairs when its future depends on adjusting to an international order over which it has only limited control Used
