The definitive edition of a classic for all humanity

“In the words of James russell Lowell’s rousing hymn: ‘once to every man and nation, comes the moment to decide, in the strife of truth with falsehood, for the good or evil side.’ perhaps more than most of us, Jan Karski faced such a choice in the starkest of possible terms, and made his decision as courageously as one could.... Jan Karski was a patriot and a truth teller; may his words always be read and his legacy never forgotten.”

From the Foreword by Madeleine Albright

“Stands in the absolute first rank of books about the resistance in world war II. If you wish to read about a man more courageous and honourable than Jan Karski, I would have no idea who to recommend.”

Alan Furst, author of The Polish Officer

“the notion that one person can make a difference is personi-fied by Jan Karski, who I was privileged to have as my professor—and guiding light—at georgetown School of Foreign Service. Karski’s Story of a Secret State offers a glimpse into a time and place ruled by nazi terror: poland in the early 1940s. Karski risked his life to bear witness to nazi atrocities against Jews, Catholics, and polish dissidents. In disguise, he snuck into the warsaw ghetto and a nazi transfer camp, then reported his terrifying observations directly to British leaders and president Franklin roosevelt, among the first reports of the holocaust to the civilized world. georgetown’s edition of Story of a Secret State gives a new generation of readers the portrait of a genuine hero who truly made a difference.”

pat Quinn, Governor of Illinois

Jan Karski’s Story of a Secret State stands as one of the most poignant and inspiring memoirs of World War II and the Holocaust. With elements of a spy thriller, documenting his experiences in the Polish Underground, and as one of the first eyewitness accounts of the systematic slaughter of the Jews by the German Nazis, this volume is a remarkable testimony of one man’s courage and a nation’s struggle for resistance against over-whelming oppression. This definitive edition—which includes a foreword by Madeleine Albright, a biographical essay by Yale historian Timothy Snyder, an afterword by Zbigniew Brzezinski, previously unpublished photos, notes, further reading and a glossary—is an apt legacy for this hero of conscience during the most fraught and fragile moment in modern history.

JAn KArSKI was born in Łódz , Poland, in 1914. He received a degree in Law and Diplomatic Science in 1935 and then served as a liaison officer of the Polish Underground during World War II. He carried the first eyewitness report of the Holocaust to a mostly unbelieving West, meeting with President Roosevelt in 1943 to plead for Allied intervention. Story of a Secret State was originally published in 1944, becoming a bestseller and Book of the Month Club selection. After the war, Karski earned his PhD at Georgetown University, where he served as a distinguished profes-sor in the School of Foreign Service for forty years. He died in Washington, DC, in 2000. Karski has been recognized as Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem. In 2012, he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Barack Obama.

intelligenCe elsewhereSpies and espionage outside the AnglospherePhilip H.J. Davies and Kristian C. Gustafson, Editors

Spying, the “world’s second oldest profession,” is hardly limited to the traditional great power countries. Intelligence Elsewhere, nevertheless, is the first scholarly volume to deal exclusively with the comparative study of national intelligence outside of the anglosphere and European mainstream. Past studies of intelli-gence and counterintelligence have tended to focus on countries such as the United States, Great Britain, and Russia, as well as, to a lesser extent, Canada, Australia, France, and Germany. This volume examines the deep historical and cultural origins of intel-ligence in several countries of critical importance today: India, China, the Arab world, and indeed, Russia, the latter examined from a fresh perspective. The authors then delve into modern intelligence practice in countries with organizations significantly different from the mainstream: Iran, Pakistan, Japan, Finland, Sweden, Indonesia, Argentina, and Ghana.

evolving iranAn Introduction to politics and problems in the Islamic republicBarbara Ann Rieffer-Flanagan

Evolving Iran presents an overview of how the politics and policy decisions in the Islamic Republic of Iran have developed since the 1979 revolution and how they are likely to evolve in the near future. Despite the fact that the revolution ushered in a theocracy, its political system has largely tended to prioritize self-interest and pragmatism over theology and religious values, while continuing to reinvent itself in the face of internal and international threats.

The author also examines the prospects for democratization in Iran. Since the early years of the twentieth century, Iranians have attempted to make their political system more democratic, yet various attempts to produce a system where citizens have a meaningful voice in political decisions have failed. This book argues that greater democratization is unlikely to occur in the short term, especially in light of increased threats from the inter-national community.

This accessible overview of Iran’s political system covers a broad array of subjects, including foreign policy, human rights, women’s struggle for equality, the development and evolution of elections, and the institutions of the political system including the Revolutionary Guards and Assembly of Experts. It will appeal to undergraduates and the general public who seek to understand a country and regime that has mystified Westerners for decades.

It is an immensely vigorous and engaging contribution to the growing literature on grappling with the Islamic republic of Iran and its highly complex and evolving politics since the 1979 Iranian revolution. this thought-provoking book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding what goes on inside the Islamic republic of Iran.”

Deep Currents anD rising tiDesthe Indian ocean and International SecurityJohn Garofano and Andrea J. Dew, Editors

The Indian Ocean region has rapidly emerged as a hinge point in the changing global balance of power, and the geographic nexus of economic and security issues with vital global conse-quences. The security of energy supplies, persistent poverty and its contribution to political extremism, piracy and related threats to seaborne trade, competing nuclear powers, and possibly the scene of future clashes between rising great powers India and China —all are dangers in the waters or in the littoral states of the Indian Ocean region.

This volume, one of the first attempts to treat the Indian Ocean Region in a coherent fashion, captures the spectrum of coopera-tion and competition in the Indian Ocean Region. Contributors discuss points of cooperation and competition in a region that stretches from East Africa, to Singapore, to Australia, and assess the regional interests of China, India, Pakistan, and the United States. Chapters review possible “red lines” for Chinese security in the region, India’s naval ambitions, Pakistan’s maritime secu-rity, and threats from non-state actors—terrorists, pirates, and criminal groups—who challenge security on the ocean for all states.

This volume will interest academics, professionals, and research-ers with interests in international relations, Asian security, and maritime studies.

the ethiCs of interrogationprofessional responsibility in an Age of terrorPaul Lauritzen

Can harsh interrogation techniques and torture ever be morally justified for a nation at war or under the threat of imminent attack? In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist strikes, the United States and other liberal democracies were forced to grapple once again with the issue of balancing national security concerns against the protection of individual civil and political rights. This question was particularly poignant when US forces took prisoners in Afghanistan and Iraq who arguably had information about additional attacks. In this volume, ethicist Paul Lauritzen takes on ethical debates about counterterrorism techniques that are increasingly central to US foreign policy and discusses the ramifications for the future of interrogation.

Managing Disasters through publiC–private partnershipsAmi J. Abou-bakr

The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and Hurricane Katrina in August, 2005, generated a great deal of discus-sion in public policy and disaster management circles about the importance of increasing national resilience to rebound from catastrophic events. Since the majority of physical and virtual networks that the United States relies upon are owned and operated by the private sector, a consensus has emerged that public–private partnerships (PPPs) are a crucial aspect of an effective resilience strategy. Significant barriers to coop-eration persist, however, despite acknowledgment that public– private collaboration for managing disasters would be mutually beneficial.

Managing Disasters through Public–Private Partnerships consti-tutes the first in-depth exploration of PPPs as tools of disaster mitigation, preparedness, response, and resilience in the United States. The author assesses the viability of PPPs at the federal level and explains why attempts to develop these partnerships have largely fallen short. The book assesses the recent history and current state of PPPs in the United States, with particular emphasis on the lessons of 9/11 and Katrina, and discusses two of the most significant PPPs in United States history, the Federal Reserve System and the War Industries Board from World War I. The author develops two original frameworks to compare dif-ferent kinds of PPPs and analyzes the critical factors that make them successes or failures, pointing toward ways to improve col-laboration in the future.

This book should be of interest to researchers and students in public policy, public administration, disaster management, infrastructure protection, and security; practitioners who work on public–private partnerships; and corporate as well as govern-ment emergency management professionals and specialists.

beyonD MaChiavellipolicy Analysis reaches MidlifeSecond editionBeryl A. Radin

In this new edition of Beyond Machiavelli, Beryl Radin updates her popular overview of the field of policy analysis. Radin, winner of the John Gaus Award from the American Political Science Association, considers the critical issues that confront the policy analysis practitioner, changes in the field, including the globalization of policy analysis, and the dramatic changes in the policy environment. She examines schools and careers; the con-flict between the imperatives of analysis and the world of politics; the analytic tools that have been used, created, or discarded over the past fifty years; the relationship between decision makers and analysts as the field has multiplied and spread; and the assump-tions about the availability and appropriateness of information that can be used in the analytic task.

Once largely found in the US, policy analysis has become global, and Radin discusses the field’s new paradigms, methodologies and concepts of success. This new edition considers changes in expertise, controversies in the field, today’s career prospects, and the impact of 9/11 on the field. She profiles three addi-tional policy analysis organizations and updates the profiles of the organizations in the first edition. Continuing the trajec-tory of the fictional characters from the first edition, Radin adds a character representing the new generation just entering the field. The book discusses the shifts in society’s attitudes toward public action, the availability of resources to meet public needs, and the dimensions of policymaking.

Written for students, faculty, and practitioners, the book concludes with a look at the possible dimensions of the policy analysis field and profession as it moves into the future.

She received the John Gaus Award from the American Political Science Association in 2012, and the H.

China’s sent-Down generationpublic Administration and the Legacies of Mao’s rustication program

Helena K. Rene

During China’s Cultural Revolution, Chairman Mao Zedong’s “rustication program” resettled 17 million urban youths, known as “sent downs,” to the countryside for manual labor and social-ist reeducation. This book, the most comprehensive study of the program to be published in either English or Chinese to date, examines the mechanisms and dynamics of state craft in China, from the rustication program’s inception in 1968 to its official termination in 1980 and actual completion in the 1990s.

The author explains the lasting impact of the rustication pro-gram on China’s contemporary administrative culture, for exam-ple, showing how and why bureaucracy persisted and even grew stronger during the wrenching chaos of the Cultural Revolution. She also focuses on the special difficulties female sent-downs faced in terms of work, pressures to marry local peasants, and sexual harassment, predation and violence. The author’s parents were both sent downs, and she was able to interview over fifty former sent downs from around the country, something never previously accomplished.

China’s Sent-Down Generation demonstrates the rustication pro-gram’s profound long-term consequences for China’s bureaucra-cy, for the spread of corruption, and for the families traumatized by this authoritarian social experiment. The book will appeal to academics, graduate and undergraduate students in public administration and China studies programs, and individuals who are interested in China’s Cultural Revolution era.

HeLenA K. rene completed her PhD in public administration at American University in 2010. She is a member of the board of direc-tors of the Washington Institute of China Studies. Previously, she was a visiting lecturer at Hong Kong Polytechnic University and an adjunct professor of political science at Hood College.

interest groups anD health Care reforM aCross the uniteD statesVirginia Gray, David Lowery, and Jennifer K. Benz

Universal health care was on the national political agenda for nearly a hundred years until a comprehensive (but not universal) health care reform bill supported by President Obama passed in 2010. The most common explanation for the failure of past reform efforts is that special interests were continually able to block reform by lobbying lawmakers. Yet, beginning in the 1970s, accelerating with the failure of the Clinton health care plan, and continuing through the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010, health policy reform was alive and well at the state level.

Interest Groups and Health Care Reform Across the United States assesses the impact of interest groups to determine if collec-tively they are capable of shaping policy in their own interests or whether they influence policy only at the margins. What can this tell us about the true power of interest groups in this policy arena? The fact that state governments took action in health policy in spite of opposing interests where the national govern-ment could not offers a compelling puzzle that will be of special interest to scholars and students of public policy, health policy, and state politics.

brave new Digital ClassrooMtechnology and Foreign Language LearningSecond editionRobert J. BlakeForeword by Claire Kramsch

Brave New Digital Classroom examines the most effective ways to utilize technology in language learning. The author deftly interweaves the latest results of pedagogical research with descriptions of the most successful computer-assisted language learning (CALL) projects to show how to implement technology in the foreign-language curriculum to assist the second language acquisition process.

This fully updated second edition includes new chapters on the latest electronic resources, including gaming and social media, and discusses the realities and potential of distance learning for second language acquisition. The author examines the web, CALL applications, and computer-mediated communication (CMC), and suggests how the new technologically assisted cur-riculum will work for the foreign-language curriculum.

Directed at all language teachers, from the school to postsecond-ary levels, the book is ideal for graduate-level courses on second language pedagogy. It also serves as an invaluable reference for experienced researchers, CALL developers, department chairs, and administrators.

“Brave New Digital Classroom . . . states clearly and urgently what the stakes are: either teachers embrace the new language learning technologies and integrate them in a new pedagogy or they will not only deprive themselves of the enormous benefits afforded by CALL, CMC, distance learning, social networking and language games, but they will be increasingly out of touch with their own students, who are by now wired, networked, and computer savvy. However, in every chapter we are remind-ed that the technology is not a panacea in itself. It urgently needs the teacher to harness it properly if it is to help learners achieve the ultimate goal of foreign language learning: becom-ing bilingual.”

the georgetown DiCtionary of iraqi arabiCArabic–english, english–ArabicMohamed Maamouri, Editor

The Georgetown Dictionary of Iraqi Arabic is a modernized, up-to-date dialectal Arabic language resource that promotes success-ful daily communication with native Arabic speakers. Students, teachers, and scholars of Arabic will welcome this dramatically overhauled edition of one of the only Arabic dialect dictionar-ies of its kind—establishing a new standard in Arabic reference.

The dictionary represents a new generation of Arabic language reference materials designed to help English speakers gain profi-ciency in colloquial Arabic. Thoroughly updated, expanded, and enhanced, this dictionary supersedes the seminal Iraqi dictionar-ies originally published by Georgetown University Press in the 1960s and then reissued in the early 2000s.

Created in cooperation with the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) of the University of Pennsylvania, this new dictionary draws from LDC’s extensive lexical database of colloquial Iraqi, and includes more than a thirty percent increase in terms for contemporary speech than found in the original dictionaries.

This comprehensive reference focuses on conversation, empha-sizing the colloquial speech of educated residents of Baghdad. The dictionary assumes familiarity with the Arabic alphabet, the standard organization of Arabic dictionaries along the triconso-nantal root system, and the formation of Arabic verb forms.

• Approximately 17,500 Iraqi Arabic entries

• Approximately 10,750 English-to-Iraqi entries

• An increase of more than 30 percent in terms that reflect current vocabulary and usage

• Provides conventional Arabic script for main entries, and organized by root, as standard for Arabic dictionaries

• Employs International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) for all terms to demonstrate correct pronunciation

• Offers extensive example sentences to illustrate how the Iraqi words are used

• Indicates relevant parts of speech for each Iraqi entry and subentry

MoHAMed MAAMourI is a senior research administrator at the Linguistic data Consortium at the university of pennsylvania, where he directs the Arabic treebank group and the development of Arabic resources and projects. He special-izes primarily in Arabic linguistics, reading, language development, corpus linguistics, and sociolinguistics.

Instructor’s Manual for En otras palabras: Perfeccionamiento del español por medio de la traducciónsegunda ediciónPatricia V. Lunn and Ernest J. LunsfordDownload at no charge to professors who adopt the text

en otras palabrasperfeccionamiento del español por medio de la traducción

segunda edición

Patricia V. Lunn and Ernest J. Lunsford

Students of advanced Spanish share a desire to use and under-stand the language, even as their backgrounds and goals for the language may vary widely. En otras palabras provides advanced learners of Spanish with hands-on manipulation of grammatical, lexical, and cultural detail through the practice of translation (traducción). This challenging and enjoyable textbook—now in its second edition with up-to-date texts on current events, new exercises, and new and expanded instructions—presents students with incisive grammar explanation, relevant lexical information, and a wide variety of translation texts and exercises in order to increase their mastery of the Spanish language.

En otras palabras contains Spanish texts to be translated into English as well as English texts for translation into Spanish. Translating into English requires students to understand every detail of the Spanish text and decide how these details might best be expressed in English. Translating into Spanish requires students to recognize how Spanish structures and words do—and do not—parallel those of English. Both activities provide advanced students of Spanish with an invigorating linguistic workout and serve as an effective introduction to the practice of translation.

Translation is a cultural as well as a linguistic activity; for stu-dents, learning how to translate provides invaluable experience of the inseparability of language and culture. En otras palabras addresses the errors made by advanced learners of Spanish while involving students in the pleasurable, problem-solving process of translation. This second edition contains a wide variety of usage-based exercises for both individual and group work. Concise and complete texts feature narrative and description, marketing and publicity materials, medical and legal topics, sports journalism, and internet posts.

En otras palabras is designed for a three-credit semester class; an online Instructor’s Manual is provided at no charge to professors who adopt the text in their classrooms.

prAISe For tHe 1St edItIon:

“En otras palabras is a resource for multiple ends. For Spanish teachers and advanced students, it provides explanations, examples, and exercises that can be expanded and complemented. For translation students, it provides translation exercises in both directions. And professional translators of either combination can use this book as a basis, and a challenge, to practice translation into the nonnative language.”

sons et sensLa prononciation du français en contexteAnne Violin-Wigent, Jessica Miller, and Frédérique Grim

Sons et sens presents a unique cultural approach to French pronunciation for English-speaking students. Each chapter presents a new cultural topic, such as the French education system, vernacular French, and cooking in the francophone world, in order to enhance students’ pronunciation skills within the context of French and francophone culture. Phonetic expla-nations and rules throughout the textbook are anchored in recent research on French phonology, reflecting contemporary French as well as elements of nonstandard variation from around the francophone world. The authors’ approach derives from current research on second language acquisition and peda-gogy as well as contemporary research on French linguistics— especially sociolinguistics.

The textbook’s fifteen chapters include a variety of exercises on sound discrimination, rule formulation, phonetic reading and transcriptions, and conversations. The accompanying DVD provides about 200 sound files and several video files that show how sounds are formed with the body. A teacher’s edition con-tains additional materials, including comments and answers keyed to the student text. Perfect for third year students, Sons et sens should appeal to instructors and students of college-level pronunciation and phonetics courses and serve as a valuable reference in a variety of courses where pronunciation is of importance. The book will also interest students with some background in French who want to perfect their pronunciation on their own.

DisCourse 2.0Language and new MediaDeborah Tannen and Anna Marie Trester, Editors

Our everyday lives are increasingly being lived through electron-ic media, which are changing our interactions and our commu-nications in ways that we are only beginning to understand. In Discourse 2.0: Language and New Media, editors Deborah Tannen and Anna Marie Trester team up with top scholars in the field to shed light on the ways language is being used in, and shaped by, these new media contexts.

Topics explored include: how web 2.0 can be conceptualized and theorized; the role of English on the worldwide web; how use of social media such as Facebook and texting shape com-munication with family and friends; electronic discourse and assessment in educational and other settings; multimodality and the “participatory spectacle” in web 2.0; asynchronicity and turn-taking; ways that we engage with technology including reading on-screen and on paper; and how all of these processes interplay with meaning-making.

Students, professionals, and individuals will discover that Discourse 2.0 offers a rich source of insight into these new forms of discourse that are pervasive in our lives.

the saCreDness of the personA new genealogy of Human rightsHans Joas

What are the origins of the idea of human rights and universal human dignity? How can we most fully understand—and real-ize—these rights going into the future? In The Sacredness of the Person, internationally renowned sociologist and social theorist Hans Joas tells a story that differs from conventional narratives by tracing the concept of human rights back to the Judeo-Christian tradition or, alternately, to the secular French Enlightenment. While drawing on sociologists such as Émile Durkheim, Max Weber, and Ernst Troeltsch, Joas sets out a new path, proposing an affirmative genealogy in which human rights are the result of a process of the “sacralization” of every human being.

According to Joas, every single human being has increasingly been viewed as sacred. He discusses the abolition of torture and slavery, once common practice in the pre-18th century west, as two milestones in modern human history. The author concludes by portraying the emergence of the UN Declaration of Human Rights of 1948 as a successful process of value generalization.

HAnS JoAS is professor of sociology at the University of Chicago, where he also belongs to the Committee on Social Thought, and at the University of Freiburg, Germany, where he is a Permanent Fellow at the Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies, School of History.

HuMAn rIgHtS

“eschewing ahistorical rational justifications of timeless univer-sal values as well as debunking genealogical deconstructions of historical origins, Hans Joas offers an affirmative genealogy of human rights as a fruitful alternative. the book links brilliant theoretical argumentation with gripping phenomenological narrative as it illuminates modern processes of sacralization of the human person. this tour de force is obligatory reading for anybody interested in the birth, contingent history, and fragile fate of human rights in our global age.”

José Casanova, Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs, Georgetown University

“If we have anything like a global ethic, and not just one on paper but that is motivating people all over the world to take action to make things better, it is human rights. I have read much on this subject but nothing comes close to what Hans Joas has done in this brilliant new book. He somehow brings the reader into the intensely exciting history of where the idea of human rights came from, how many major issues it has taken on, and where it might go. . . . It is a book for teachers and students, but really for everyone in the world who is trying to make it better.”

“Any serious discussion of the relations between tradition and modernity, and of the many ways in which these may be construed and pursued within faiths which between them comprise half of humanity, is genuinely important. But more than that, this book is an education in modes of thinking out-side the individualistic positivist paradigm and an introduction to the special character of the dialogue between theology and historical sociology as disciplines sharing similar hermeneutic problems.”

david Martin, Fellow of the British Academy and Emeritus Professor of Sociology, London School of Economics

“the relation of ancient sacred traditions to modernity has been central and sometimes deeply troubling for all religions. these timely and searching essays reflect on that relationship with learn-ing, imagination, and openness. It is indispensable reading for all those concerned with contemporary Christianity and Islam.”

ConteMporary CatholiC health Care ethiCsSecond Edition

David F. Kelly, Gerard Magill, and Henk ten Have

Contemporary Catholic Health Care Ethics, Second Edition, inte-grates theology, methodology, and practical application into a detailed and practical examination of the bioethical issues that confront students, scholars, and practitioners. Noted bioethicists Gerard Magill, Henk ten Have, and David F. Kelly contribute diverse backgrounds and experience that inform the richness of new material covered in this second edition.

The book is organized into three sections: theology (basic issues underlying Catholic thought), methodology (how Catholic the-ology approaches moral issues, including birth control), and applications to current issues. New chapters discuss controversial end-of-life issues such as forgoing treatment, killing versus allow-ing patients to die, ways to handle decisions for incompetent patients, advance directives, and physician-assisted suicide. Unlike anthologies, the coherent text offers a consistent method in order to provide students, scholars, and practitioners with an under-standing of ethical dilemmas as well as concrete examples to assist in the difficult decisions they must make on an everyday basis.
