   Extractions: This is a critical theoretical study of the concept of fetishism, in particular the concept of the fetishism of commodities, as a central element in Capital , the main theoretical work of Karl Marx. Mr Artous aims to show the enduring relevance of this central element in Marx's ideas for a critical analysis of contemporary capitalism and discusses the various ways theorists after Marx, both Marxists and others, have dealt with Marx's use of the concept. These include, among others, Max Weber, Michel Foucault and the French Marxist theorist Jean-Marie Vincent. This is the second edition of a study, originally published in 1987, in which the author examines the Marxism of the renowned French philosopher Louis Althusser (1918-1990), from his "return to Marx" in the mid-1960s, through his subsequent evolution and self-criticism to the proclamation of a "crisis of Marxism" at the end of his life, and assesses Althusser's contribution to historical materialism. In this second edition, Dr Elliott has added a postscript reviewing the posthumous edition of Althusser's work that appeared in the 1990s and appends a comprehensive bibliography of his work.

Nationalistisen ja Neuvostoliiton vastaisen liikkeen toiminta muuttui aktiivisemmaksi Georgian sosialistisessa neuvostotasavallassa vuonna 1988. Neuvostovastaiset poliittiset järjestöt organisoivat Tbilisissä useita lakkoja ja tapaamisia. Konflikti neuvostohallituksen ja georgialaisten nationalistien välillä syveni niin kutsutun Lykhnyn kokouksen jälkeen 18. maaliskuuta 1989, kun useat tuhannet abhaasit vaativat eroa Georgiasta ja neuvostotasavallan statuksen myöntämistä Abhasialle vuosien 1921–1931 tapaan.

The complex heritage of Arawak, Spanish, African, and French traditions, plus an early independence, set the Dominican Republic apart from other Caribbean islands. Independence was won before slavery was abolished in the Spanish Caribbean and a century before the decolonization of the other islands. The Dominicans consider themselves more Latin American than Caribbean. In addition, they retain close ties with the United States, which occupied the island in the early twentieth century. The national community is struggling to build a democracy against a corrupt and authoritarian political elite. Location and Geography. The Dominican Republic is located on the eastern two-thirds of the island of Hispaniola and is 18,816 square miles (48,734 square kilometers), about twice the size of New Hampshire. The western portion of the island is occupied by the republic of Haiti. Hispaniola is near the center of the West Indies, a group of islands that extend from Florida to Venezuela. To the north of Hispaniola is the Atlantic Ocean, to the south the Caribbean Sea, to the east Puerto Rico, and to the west Cuba. Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Jamaica are referred to as the Greater Antilles.
