The Language of History
For over five hundred years, Muslim dynasties ruled parts of northern and central India, starting with the Ghurids in the 1190s through the fracturing of the Mughal Empire in the early eighteenth century. Scholars have long drawn upon works written in Persian and Arabic about this epoch, yet they have neglected the many histories that India’s learned elite wrote about Indo-Muslim rule in Sanskrit. These works span the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire and discuss Muslim-led kingdoms in the Deccan and even as far south as Tamil Nadu. They constitute a major archive for understanding significant cultural and political changes that shaped early modern India and the views of those who lived th...
Legal Mobilization Under Authoritarianism

The First Tung Chee-hwa Administration
This book is a study of the administration of Hong Kong's government under the leadership of Tung Chee-hwa during a time when Hong Kong was changing politically and economically. The contributors address the following questions: To what extent are government policies consistent with those of colonial rule? What does "one country two systems" mean, and to what extent has the Tung regime been successful in safeguarding this principle? How responsible are external economic forces for the apparent deterioration of the Hong Kong economy? Who are affected most by the restructuring of the economy, and what are some of the long-term implications for Hong Kong as an important world financial center? How do people in general perceive these changes? What are some of the most effective economic and social policy measures that the Tung government has initiated? Finally, how successful has the Chief Executive been during his five years in office?
Connecting Sociology to Our Lives
Many introductory texts claim to make sociology relevant to student interests. Perhaps no other text has done this so completely - and engagingly - as Connecting Sociology to Our Lives. Tim Delaney not only uses popular and contemporary culture examples, he explains sociology thoroughly within the frame of the contemporary culture of students - a culture shaped by political, economic, and environmental trends just as much as by today's pop stars. This book will help academics to engage their students in sociology through the prism of their own culture. It involves students in critical thinking and classroom discussion through the book's many 'What Do You Think?' inserts, and will inspire them to careers with the book's unique chapter, 'Sociology's Place in Society: Completing the Connection'.
