Systems Of Violence - The Political Economy Of War And Peace In Colombia

de Nazih F. Richani

~~51,61€~~ 41,29€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Expanded new edition of an important study of the protracted violence in Colombia.This book examines the political, economic, and military factors that have contributed to thirty-seven years of protracted violent conflict in Colombia. Using four years of field research, and more than two hundred interviews, Nazih Richani examines Colombia''s "war system"-the systemic interlacing relationship among actors in conflict, their respective political economy, and also the overall political economy of the system they help in creating. Several key questions are raised, including when and why do some conflicts protract, and what types of socioeconomic and political configurations make peaceful resolutions difficult to obtain? Also addressed are the lessons of other protracted conflicts, such as those found in Lebanon, Angola, and Italy. In this expanded second edition Richani contributes new chapters looking at developments in Colombia since the book''s initial publication a decade ago and a look at the challenges for peace that lie ahead.

United We Stand? - Divide-And-Conquer Politics And The Logic Of International Hostility

de Aaron Belkin

~~34,52€~~ 27,62€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Argues that leaders sometimes promote international conflicts to keep their own military politically divided.It has long been assumed that leaders engage in international conflict to unify their followers-what is often called the "rally 'round the flag" hypothesis. Despite its intuitive appeal, however, this hypothesis does not always provide a compelling explanation of the relationship between domestic politics and international conflict. In United We Stand? Aaron Belkin shows that in one important realm, civil-military relations, leaders often prefer divisiveness over cohesion. When they feel domestically vulnerable, leaders use international conflict in order to create and exacerbate rivalries among their own military forces to lower the risk of a coup and to contribute to the consolidation and stability of the political order. Case studies include post-Soviet Georgia and Syria.

Social Construction And The Logic Of Money - Financial Predominance And International Economic Leadership

de J. Samuel Barkin

~~35,49€~~ 28,39€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Examines the nature of international economic leadership since the seventeenth century.While other studies of international leadership have looked at a variety of measures to predict behavior, this book demonstrates that the key factor is international finance. J. Samuel Barkin uses an innovative blend of rationalist and constructivist methodologies, approaches to international political economy that normally exist in isolation from one another. Barkin argues that the level of a country's involvement in international finance specifically motivates it to lead. This is particularly relevant today, given the on-going discussions on how to respond to local and global financial crises. Barkin illustrates his theory with an episodic history of international monetary leadership over the last four centuries: Dutch leadership in the seventeenth century; British leadership in the nineteenth; the failure of leadership in the interwar era and Great Depression; and the role of the U.S. in the construction of an international economic infrastructure since World War II.

International Regimes For The Final Frontier

de M. J. Peterson

~~37,41€~~ 29,93€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Examines the negotiations between nations that lead to international agreements regulating human activity in outer space.Neither rational choice theory, with its emphasis on interest calculation, nor sociological institutionalist theory, with its emphasis on identity-defined rule following, indicates how governments determine which of their multiple interests or identities are at stake in a particular situation or how they develop mutual comprehension of each other's goals. International Regimes for the Final Frontier addresses these gaps by tracing how governments approach an unfamiliar issue-in this case, international agreements regulating human activity in outer space between 1958 and 1988-and examines three ways situation definitions channel governments' approaches to issues or problems.

International Relations Under Risk - Framing State Choice

de Jeffrey D. Berejikian

~~34,52€~~ 27,62€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Argues that international relations ought to be anchored in realistic models of human decision making.The field of international relations is only now beginning to take notice of cognitive models of decision making. Arguing against the trend of adopting formalistic depictions of human choice, Berejikian suggests that international relations and realistic models of human decision making go hand-in-hand. The result is a set of interconnected propositions that provide compelling new insights into state behavior. Utilizing this framework, he discusses the behavior of the United States and Europe in negotiating the Montreal Protocol, a landmark international agreement designed to save the earth's protective ozone shield.

Ozone Depletion And Climate Change - Constructing A Global Response

de Matthew J. Hoffmann

~~35,49€~~ 28,39€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 A path-breaking look at the international response to ozone depletion and climate change.Matthew J. Hoffmann explores the fundamental question of who should participate in the global response to ozone depletion and climate change. Blending social constructivist theory with insights from the study of complex adaptive systems, Hoffmann develops a unique framework for understanding the emergence and evolution of participation norms, which define the appropriate global response and shape how states have perceived the problems, defined their interests and strategies, and pursued governance. The explanation is rigorously developed through an innovative combination of formal analysis and in-depth empirical case studies. Agent-based computer simulation modeling is employed to explore essential norm dynamics, analysis that is complemented and extended by process-tracing case studies that examine governance activities from 1986 through 2003. The result provides the understanding necessary for improving global responses to environmental problems.

Technology, Development, And Democracy - International Conflict And Cooperation In The Information Age

~~35,49€~~ 28,39€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The impact of internet technologies on international politics.Technology, Development, and Democracy examines the growing role of the Internet in international affairs, from a source of mostly officially sanctioned information, to a venue where knowledge is often merged with political propaganda, rhetoric and innuendo. The Internet not only provides surfers with up-to-the-minute stories, including sound and visual images, and opportunities to interact with one another and experts on international issues, but also enables anyone with access to a computer, modem, and telephone line to influence international affairs directly. What does this portend for the future of international politics? The contributors respond by providing theoretical perspectives and empirical analyses for understanding the impact of the communications revolution on international security, the world political economy, human rights, and gender relations. Internet technologies are evaluated as sources of change or continuity, and as contributors to either conflict or cooperation among nations. While the Internet and its related technologies hold no greater, certain prospect for positive change than previous technological advances, they arguably do herald significant advances for democracy, the democratization process, and international peace.

Globalizing Interests - Pressure Groups And Denationalization

~~37,41€~~ 29,93€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Examines how national interest groups respond to the international pressures of globalization.Globalizing Interests is an innovative study of globalization "from inside," looking at the reaction of nationally constituted interest groups to challenges produced by the denationalization process. The contributors focus on business associations, trade unions, civil rights organizations, and right-wing populists from Canada, Germany, Great Britain, and the United States, and examine how they have responded to three extremely globalized issue areas: the Internet, migration, and climate change. What they find is that "the politics of denationalization" is a new game with new rules, new teams, and surprisingly broad support for governance beyond the nation state.
