Theory And Practice In The Career Of Fernando Henrique Cardoso: Part I, Ibpp Editor

International Bulletin of Political Psychology

In the United States, Woodrow Wilson, Eugene McCarthy, and even Newt Gingrich come immediately to mind.

Publications

In its consequences for the future role of the Atlantic Alliance, the system-change in Europe means more than what it is commonly conceived of to be.
