Book Description
The United Kingdom is weakening, and this book helps to explain why. Alvin Jackson examines the UK in the light of the experience of similar union states elsewhere, offering the first sustained comparative study across the long nineteenth century and beyond. The UK was not in fact the only self-styled 'united kingdom' of the time: Jackson argues strikingly and originally that Britain exported the idea of union through the advocacy or encouragement of other multinational united kingdoms at the beginning of the nineteenth century. The work is distinctive in its geographical breadth. Jackson draws together the histories of Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and England and explores the links between them and Sweden-Norway, the United Netherlands, Austria-Hungary and the United Canadas - and many other polities across the globe. United Kingdoms looks too at the institutions and agencies affecting the condition of union - from monarchy, aristocracy, and religion through to class, money, and violence. Jackson offers new overarching arguments about the origins, survival, and fall of all union states, and in doing so, sheds new light on the particular history, condition, and fate of the UK.

Book Description
Life is not always what it seems to be. Some people think the rapid elimination of one oppressor will solve the problems of common people and make the situation safer. However without strict arrangements for that –even may amount to dictatorship, but with good intentions and truthful concepts- we can find that the situation becomes much worse If you are targeting the oppressor, it is yours… go on. But if you are targeting the oppressed, hold on; Maybe annihilating one oppressor Cause other dozens to grow.
