The Neoliberal Subject: Resilience, Adaptation and Vulnerability
ISBN: 9781783487721 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Political practices, agencies and institutions around the world promote the need for humans, individually and collectively, to develop capacities of resilience. We must accept and adapt to the 'realities' of an endemic condition of global insecurity and to the practice of so-called sustainable development. But in spite of claims that resilience make us more adept and capable, does the discourse of resilience undermine our ability to make our own decisions as to how we wish to live? This book draws out the theoretical assumptions behind the drive for resilience and its implications for issues...

The horrific torture and execution of hundreds of thousands of Cambodians by Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge during the 1970s is one of the century's major human disasters. David Chandler, a world-renowned historian of Cambodia, examines the Khmer Rouge phenomenon by focusing on one of its key institutions, the secret prison outside Phnom Penh known by the code name "S-21." The facility was an interrogation center where more than 14,000 "enemies" were questioned, tortured, and made to confess to counterrevolutionary crimes. Fewer than a dozen prisoners left S-21 alive.

Resilience has become a central concept in government policy understandings over the last decade. In our complex, global and interconnected world, resilience appears to be the policy 'buzzword' of choice, alleged to be the solution to a wide and ever-growing range of policy issues. This book analyses the key aspects of resilience-thinking and highlights how resilience impacts upon traditional conceptions of governance. This concise and accessible book investigates how resilience-thinking adds new insights into how politics (both domestically and internationally) is understood to...Resilience has become a central concept in government policy understandings over the last decade.

Freedom vs Necessity in International Relations: Human-Centred Approaches to Security and Development
ISBN: 9781780324838 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For the last two decades nearly all analysis of insecurity, conflict or development has stressed the need to "empower" or "capacity-build" local individuals or communities. This ground-breaking book presents a radical challenge to such approaches, arguing that solutions to the world's problems are not understood within external structures of economic, political and social relations, but instead with individuals and groups - often the most marginal and powerless. This has gone hand-in-hand with a shift from state-based to society-based understandings of the world. Chandler provocatively...

Empire in Denial: The Politics of State-Building
ISBN: 9780745324289 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. David Chandler argues that state-building, as it is currently conceived, does not work. In the 1990s, interventionist policies challenged the rights of individual states to self-governance. Today, non-Western states are more likely to be feted by international institutions offering programmes of poverty-reduction, democratisation and good governance. States without the right of self-government will always lack legitimate authority. The international policy agenda focuses on bureaucratic mechanisms, which can only instutiutionalise divisions between the West and the non-West and are unable to...

Rethinking Ethical Foreign Policy: Pitfalls, Possibilities and Paradoxes
ISBN: 9780415400190 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Contemporary foreign policy is increasingly perceived to be about values rather than interests as traditionally conceived. Once marginal, ethics are today held to play a central role in foreign policy.
This new book goes beyond current debates which locate the limitations to ethical foreign policy in the strategic and economic interests of nation-states. Rather than counter-posing interests and ethics, trying to find "hidden agendas," or emphasizing the double-standards at play in ethical foreign policy, this text brings together leading international theorists in order to develop a...

ISBN: 9780415567343 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This new book presents critical approaches towards Human Security, which has become one of the key areas for policy and academic debate within Security Studies and IR. The Human Security paradigm has had considerable significance for academics, policy-makers and practitioners. Under the rubric of Human Security, security policy practices seem to have transformed their goals and approaches, re-prioritising economic and social welfare issues that were marginal to the state-based geo-political rivalries of the Cold War era. Human Security has reflected and reinforced the...
