New York. Otto del mattino.


Alice, una giovane poliziotta di Parigi, e Gabriel, pianista jazz americano, si svegliano ammanettati tra loro su una panchina di Central Park.


Non si conoscono e non ricordano nulla del loro incontro. La sera prima, Alice era a una festa sugli Champs-Elysées con i suoi amici, mentre Gabriel era in un pub di Dublino a suonare. Impossibile? Eppure… Dopo lo stupore iniziale le domande sono inevitabili: come sono finiti in una situazione simile? Da dove arriva il sangue di cui è macchiata la camicetta di Alice?


Perché dalla sua pistola manca un proiettile?


Per capire cosa sta succedendo e riannodare i fili delle loro vite, Alice e Gabriel non possono farealtro che agire in coppia. La verità che scopriranno finirà per sconvolgere le loro vite. Un thriller magistrale – oltre un milione di copie vendute in Francia – che conquista il lettore sin dalla prima scena e lo avvolge in una spirale implacabile.

Identity and Memory in Post-Soviet Central Asia: Uzbekistan"s Soviet Past

Identity and Memory in Post-Soviet Central Asia: Uzbekistan"s Soviet Past (Central Asia Research Forum) by Timur Dadabaev


2015 | ISBN: 1138831468 | English | 226 pages | PDF | 2 MB

Central Asian states have experienced a number of historical changes that have challenged their traditional societies and lifestyles. The most significant changes occurred as a result of the revolution in 1917, the incorporation of the region into the Soviet Union, and gaining independence after the collapse of the USSR. Impartial and informed public evaluation of the Soviet and post-Soviet periods has always been a complicated issue, and the ‘official’ descriptions have often contradicted the interpretations of the past viewed through the experiences of ordinary people.




Identity and Memory in Post-Soviet Central Asia looks at the tradition of history construction in Central Asia. By collecting views of the public’s experiences of the Soviet past in Uzbekistan, the author examines the transformation of present-day Central Asia from the perspective of these personal memories, and analyses how they relate to the Soviet and post-Soviet official descriptions of Soviet life. The book discusses that the way in which people in Central Asia reconcile their Soviet past to a great extent refers to the three-fold process of recollecting their everyday experiences, reflecting on their past from the perspective of their post-Soviet present, and re-imagining. These three elements influence memories and lead to selectivity in memory construction, emphasising the aspects of the Soviet era people choose to recall in positive and negative lights.




Presenting a broader picture of Soviet everyday life at the periphery of the USSR, the book will be a useful contribution for students and scholars of Central Asian Studies, Ethnicity and Identity Politics.

Getting Better: Improving Health System Outcomes in Europe and Central Asia

Getting Better: Improving Health System Outcomes in Europe and Central Asia (Europe and Central Asia Reports) by Owen Smith and Son Nam Nguyen


English | 2013 | ISBN: 0821398830 | 210 pages | PDF | 4,3 MB

Improving health system outcomes is a major development challenge for Europe and Central Asia (ECA). Fifty years ago, average lifespans in the region were slightly behind those in Western Europe, but far better than in East Asia, Latin America, or the Middle East. Since then, the gap between ECA and its western neighbors has widened, while the other middle-income regions have now all moved ahead. Some countries in ECA have performed very well, and the overall regional trend has recently improved, but long-term progress has certainly lagged behind the rest of the world.




In the future, health sector issues are likely to loom ever larger in policy agendas across the region. Living a long, healthy life will increasingly matter to people as much as achieving ever-higher incomes. Opinion polls indicate that health is the top priority for government spending among populations across ECA, and expectations for a strong government role in the sector are high. Yet these aspirations must be reconciled with the reality of aging populations and significant fiscal constraints.




Getting Better: Improving Health System Outcomes in Europe and Central Asia draws on a wealth of new evidence to explore the challenges facing health sectors in ECA. It highlights three key agendas to help countries seeking to catch up with the world"s best-performing health systems. The first is the health agenda, where the main priority is to strengthen public health and primary care to help achieve the "cardiovascular revolution" that has taken place elsewhere in recent decades. The second is the financing agenda, in which the growing demand for medical care must be satisfied without imposing an undue burden on households or government budgets. The third agenda relates to broader institutional arrangements, where the task is to adopt some of the key ingredients common to most advanced health systems that are still missing in many ECA countries. A common theme for all three agendas is the emphasis on improving outcomes, or "Getting Better".
