{"product_id":"failed-states-matthew-bukovac-9781435894471","title":"Failed States","description":"Hundreds of millions of people live in countries that have been designated as \"failed states.\" These countries suffer from deep-seated problems. Some, like Somalia, lack a functional government. Others, like North Korea, suffer from a failing economy and brutally repress their citizens. This book examines the phenomenon of failed states by taking a look at a diverse sampling of these countries. State failure does not solely impact the citizens of the failed state. Instead, it can affect the entire international community. The vast scope of this complex, timely topic is made easy to understand through this narrative, which unpacks often-complicated information in a compelling, accessible manner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Bukovac\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1435894472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781435894471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosen Young Adult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Library Binding\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 7.20w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2011 - Recommended - Better Than Most","brand":"Matthew Bukovac","offers":[{"title":"Library Binding","offer_id":48518460670207,"sku":"9781435894471","price":37.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d36bf679-1b6f-43ad-8e10-e87aaed1277a.jpg?v=1778734527","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/failed-states-matthew-bukovac-9781435894471","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
