There is an ongoing attempt to financialise and commodify this public capital. This includes areas such as health, education and pensions. Social opinions and contemporary politics are analysed.

In this book, Gavin Rae analyses the foundationsof political life by undertaking a critical comparative analysis of thepolitical theologies of Carl Schmitt and Emmanuel Levinas.

Poland's transformation from socialism to capitalism has brought with it immense political changes. This book analyses the changes to the country since 1989 in their historical and geo-political framework. It looks at how the absorption of Poland into the international capitalist system has transformed the country.
