\n<\/strong>This title examines the cultural transfer of\u00a0operetta<\/em>\u00a0from the\u00a0German<\/em>\u00a0stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these\u00a0operettas<\/em>\u00a0and their music.<\/p>\n

Gift exchange: the transnational history of a political idea<\/a> \/Gr\u00e9goire Mallard.

\"\"Oral democracy: deliberation in Indian village assemblies<\/a> \/Vijayendra Rao, Paromita Sanyal.
