Comprehensive History Of Post-Communism, Colonialism, Totalitarianism, And Secularism eBook

Within the following eight chapters, the reader will be provided with a comprehensive history of post-communism, colonialism, totalitarianism, and secularism. Chapter One discusses the religious criticism France received in the 18th century. In Chapter Two the authors study the dynamics of multiple citizenship in five Europeanizing post-communist countries (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia and Croatia) between 1997 and 2014. Chapter Three presents the most important stages and aspects of the history of the University of Wrocaw and its academic community under the totalitarian communist regime, showing how the Communist Party (PZPR), the Secret Police (SB) and the institutions of the totalitarian state hindered the university community. David Siegal presents in Chapter Four just how deep Russian influence runs in Central Asia. Chapter Five goes on to explore David D. Roberts’s "totalitarianism as great politics" theoretical framework’s potential to shed new light on one of the very few potential instances of the phenomenon that the American historian has not so far addressed: Pol Pot’s Cambodia. In Chapter Six the authors analyze the use of the Internet and smart technologies to enhance the processes of intelligent colonialization. In Chapter Seven the author introduces the theme of the importance of death education and the necessity of organizing curricula in a systematic way. Chapter Eight is based on the results of the authors'' personal research, observations and interviews among the Yezidis and converted Yezidis of Armenia and also includes materials from the media.
