    Politics Catalonia may become an independent nation soon...

    You are completely right, reputation, but separatists, regardless from what part of the globe, think everything is allowed to them.

    Politics Catalonia may become an independent nation soon...

    If EU wants to be competitive with economic giants in the world, it should became more integrated. One of key questions how much separatism and quest for independence of a region within a country can contribute to strengthening integration in the EU. I'm afraid it is inversely, and wasting time...

    Economy Evolution of income groups in Western Europe and the USA from 1991 to 2010

    Very interesting study and maybe something one might not expect. It would be good if Pew Research Center, that has excellent studies, expand this topic on whole world. For me it is especially interesting how much middle class rises in developing countries which have fast development.

    No, you didn't understand. I hold the book in my hand, and I read as much as for time which I had, and I will have the book soon. What do you don't like, because it has a lot of positive surveys in Amazon, 5 star = 73% (56 surveys)...

    Politics Balkanian disagreements.

    Serbs had about 3.000.000 victims in two world wars, you should respect Serbian and Yugoslav fight for freedom. In general history is complex and the reasons why world wars erupt. And Albania was Stalin's ally, not Serbia or Yugoslavia. But, to continue. Why do you don't like Russians...

    Politics Balkanian disagreements.

    You don't know Yugoslav conflict. And only Muslims can know what is taliban mentality. Slovenia carries a lot of guilt. Slovenian forces, unprovoked, attacked soldiers of Yugoslav army who were on a regular service in SR Slovenia, which was one of Yugoslav republic. There were victims on the...

    Politics Balkanian disagreements.

    No Laberia. You are no understand conflicts in ex Yugoslavia, and you wrongly think Serbs are to blame for all. It is not true, even it is racist thinking. Serbs and Croats are South Slavs, and they will solve problems, my opinion for 20-30 years, Serbs and Croats will be friends as French...

    You can see here we find weak and strong points of Scott's approach. What is your point?

    Everywhere is possible to find individuals who are trying to behave like this. But, unfortunately, there is system which makes such behavior. Islamic Supremacism http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2008/12/islamic-supremacism.html ISLAMIC SUPREMACISM is the belief that Islam is superior to other...

    It is social periphery, and these people are not from Serbia. And you're right, the nation is outdated, it is construct of 19th century. What today is actual are civilizations, as Samuel Huntington argued.

    Termination of Greco-Roman civilization and role of Islam, revisited by E. Scott

    Yes. And I found still some weaknesses Scott's approach. But there are some strengths. Fact is that Northern Africa was lost (there was Greco-Roman civilization and Christianity was spreading). But what is more important what Scott emphasizes that, the Muslims constituted a constant threat in...

    Termination of Greco-Roman civilization and role of Islam, revisited by E. Scott

    Scott obviously has different opinion of those times. His book is an intriguing and controversial. Unfortunately I only partly looked it and I did not read the whole, although it can be ordered. Of course you're right about the Celts and Germans but these topics are not in the focus of Scott...
