Within this fertile social environment, Iceland ironically has been casted as a marginal society too remote to participate in global affairs, and destined to live in the shadow of its more successful neighbours. Drawing on new archaeological evidence, Tara Carter challenges this view, arguing that by building strong social networks the first citizens of Iceland balanced thinking globally while acting locally, creating the first cosmopolitan society in the North Atlantic. Iceland?s Networked Society asks us to reconsider how societies like Iceland can, even when positioned at the margins of competing empires, remain active in a global political economy and achieve social complexity on its own terms. 410 0$aNorthern world ;$vVolume 69. 606 $aSocial networks$zIceland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aComplexity (Philosophy)$xSocial aspects$zIceland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aVikings$zIceland$xHistory 606 $aGlobalization$xSocial aspects$zIceland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aCosmopolitanism$zIceland$xHistory$yTo 1500 607 $aIceland$xHistory$yTo 1262 607 $aIceland$xEconomic conditions 607 $aNorway$xRelations$zIceland 607 $aIceland$xRelations$zNorway 607 $aIceland$xAntiquities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial networks$xHistory 615 0$aComplexity (Philosophy)$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aVikings$xHistory. 615 0$aGlobalization$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aCosmopolitanism$xHistory 676 $a949.12/01 700 $aCarter$b Tara$0959561 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460899903321 996 $aIceland's networked society$92174414 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03289oam 2200769Mn 450 001 9910959114303321 005 20251130110412.0 010 $a1-317-86780-7 010 $a1-317-86779-3 010 $a1-315-83541-X 010 $a1-281-34726-4 010 $a9786611347260 010 $a1-4058-9868-2 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315835419 035 $a(CKB)1000000000553673 035 $a(EBL)1353490 035 $a(OCoLC)870590039 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000310206 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12105762 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000310206 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10287299 035 $a(PQKB)11448861 035 $a(OCoLC)859159146 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1353490 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5268512 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1353490 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10747585 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL761984 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5268512 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL134726 035 $a(OCoLC)1024269143 035 $a(OCoLC)1050608495 035 $a(OCoLC-P)1050608495 035 $a(FlBoTFG)9781315835419 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB138247 035 $a(NyNyDIG)DIGVIETO133 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000553673 100 $a20180907d2015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSTALIN 205 $a1st ed. 210 $a[Place of publication not identified] $cTAYLOR & FRANCIS$d2015 215 $a1 online resource (246 p.) 225 1 $aProfiles in Power 300 $aFirst published 2005 by Pearson Education. 311 08$a1-138-13158-X 311 08$a0-582-78479-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover ; Half Title ; Title Page ; Copyright Page ; Table of Contents ; Preface; Chronology; 1.

This profile looks at how Stalin, despite being regarded as intellectually inferior by his rivals, managed to rise to power and rule the largest country in the world, achievieving divine-like status as a dictator.

Through recently uncovered research material and Stalin's archives in Moscow, Kuromiya analyzes how and why Stalin was a rare, even unique, politician who literally lived by politics alone. He analyses how Stalin understood psychology campaigns well and how he used this understanding in his political reign and terror. Kuromiya provides a convincing, concise and up-to-date an 410 0$aProfiles in power (London, England) 606 $aHeads of state$zSoviet Union$vBiography 607 $aSoviet Union$xHistory$y1925-1953 615 0$aHeads of state 676 $a947.084/2/092 676 $a947.0842092 700 $aKUROMIYA$b HIROAKI$0128089 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959114303321 996 $aSTALIN$94462093 997 $aUNINA
