    On the state of Latin American states: approaching the bicentenary
    (Oficyna Wydawnicza AFM, 2009) Pietschmann, Horst; Graham, Lawrence S.; Lewis, Colin M.; Valdivieso, Patricio; Paleczny, Tadeusz; Posern-Zieliński, Aleksander; Stemplowski, Ryszard; Escudé, Carlos; Stemplowski, Ryszard
    What is the actual condition of the state in Latin America? Each contributor to this volume has been invited to answer this question by writing an interpretative essay from a specifically suggested angle: the origins of the state; government and society; economic growth; society and economy; nation-building; the indigenous population; political culture; international relations etc. It was the contributors’ decision which particular states to focus on in order to best illuminate the issues involved. Our main focus in the volume is on outlining some of the processes concerning the state now, two hundred years since the first declarations of independence. Along the way, we tackle both theoretical and normative issues. All the contributors to this volume share a long-cultivated multidisciplinary research interest in Latin America but the volume also reflects our disagreement on what we take the state to be as well as on the prevailing situation in Latin America. Each chapter reflects the views of its author all the way down to his choice of British or American English. As a result all chapters reflect the authors’ views on the contemporary state of the State in Latin America, as well as – why not say it – the authors’ identities. The book is aimed primarily at academics and students of the humanities and social sciences.

    The infrastructure of Justice: Institutional Determinants of High Court Decision-Making in Argentina and Venezuela
    (Oficyna Wydawnicza AFM, 2004) Kapiszewski, Diana
    From introduction: "During the last two decades, social scientists have begun to examine the links between law and legał systems, and the broader political and economic changes that are transforming developing democracies. In comparative politics and public law debates on democracy, legał issues raised by national and transnational human rights movements, and the rule of law, have become prominent concems. With the spread of neoliberal economic reform and with new pressures from the world economy, property rights, commercial law, and the predictability of legał systems have become dominant themes in the work of legał scholars and students of political economy. One primary goal of these evolving research agendas is to assess whether legał institutions are proving to be a catalyst, or an obstacle, to deepening democracy and economic innovation."(...)
