Biosecurity is the assessment and management of potentially dangerous infectious diseases, quarantined pests, invasive (alien) species, living modified organisms, and biological weapons.

Citizenship and the Environment
ISBN: 9780199258444 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first book-length treatment of the relationship between citizenship and the environment. Andrew Dobson argues that ecological citizenship cannot be fully articulated in terms of the two great traditions of citizenship - liberal and civic republican - with which we have been bequeathed. He develops an original theory of citizenship, which he calls 'post-cosmopolitan', and argues that ecological citizenship is an example and an inflection of it. Ecological citizenship focuses on duties as well as rights, and these duties are owed non-reciprocally, by those individuals and...

Jean-Paul Sartre and the Politics of Reason: A Theory of History
ISBN: 9780521115070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Andrew Dobson charts Sartre's transformation from novelist and apolitical philosopher of existentialism, before the Second World War, to a committed defender of Marxism and Marxist method after it. Examining Sartre's post-war work in detail, he shows how the biographies of Baudelaire, Genet and Flaubert, often considered tangential to his main oeuvres, are in fact central to this defence of Marxism, and should therefore be read as acts of political commitment. Andrew Dobson's study of posthumous sources, including the extended commentaries in English of Volume II of the Critique of...

Citizenship, Environment, Economy
ISBN: 9780415463720 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As governments around the world grapple with the challenge of delivering environmental sustainability, attention has recently focused on the role that citizens should play in meeting the challenge. In advanced industrial countries such as ours, which operate in the political framework of liberal capitalism, what relevance can we place on 'environmental citizenship'?

Listening for Democracy: Recognition, Representation, Reconciliation
ISBN: 9780199682454 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although much prized in daily conversation, good listening has been almost completely ignored in that form of political conversation we know as democracy. This book examines the reasons why so little attention has been paid to the listening aspect of democratic conversation, explores the role that listening might play in democracy, and outlines some institutional changes that could be made to make listening more central to democratic processes.
The focus on listening amounts to a reorientation of democratic theory and practice, providing novel perspectives on enduring themes in democracy...

ISBN: 9780199665570 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Environmental politics has many faces and operates at multiple scales: it preoccupies individuals as well as governments, drives local agreements as well as international treaties, results in minor business changes as well as wholesale business decisions, and fluctuates between a politics of protest and one of accommodation.

Political Theory and the Ecological Challenge
ISBN: 9780521838108 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In recent years the engagement between the environmental 'agenda' and mainstream political theory has become increasingly widespread and profound. Each has affected the other in palpable and important ways, and it makes increasing sense for political theorists in each camp to engage with one another. This book, first published in 2006, draws together the threads of this interconnecting enquiry in order to assess its status and meaning. Andrew Dobson and Robyn Eckersley have gathered together a team of renowned scholars to think through the challenge that political ecology presents to...
