Indirect Rule: The Making of Us International Hierarchy
ISBN: 9781501773730 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Indirect Rule examines how states indirectly exercise authority over others and how this mode of rule affects domestic and international politics. Indirect rule has long characterized interstate relationships and US foreign relations. A key mechanism of international hierarchy, indirect rule involves an allied group within a client state adopting policies preferred by a dominant state in exchange for the dominant state's support.

The Statebuilder's Dilemma: On the Limits of Foreign Intervention
ISBN: 9781501704468 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The central task of all statebuilding is to create a state that is regarded as legitimate by the people over whom it exercises authority. This is a necessary condition for stable, effective governance. States sufficiently motivated to bear the costs of building a state in some distant land are likely to have interests in the future policies of that country, and will therefore seek to promote loyal leaders who are sympathetic to their interests and willing to implement their preferred policies. In The Statebuilder's Dilemma, David A. Lake addresses the key tradeoff between...

Hierarchy in International Relations
ISBN: 9780801477157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. International relations are generally understood as a realm of anarchy in which countries lack any superior authority and interact within a Hobbesian state of nature. In Hierarchy in International Relations, David A. Lake challenges this traditional view, demonstrating that states exercise authority over one another in international hierarchies that vary historically but are still pervasive today. Revisiting the concepts of authority and sovereignty, Lake offers a novel view of international relations in which states form social contracts that bind both dominant and...

The International Spread of Ethnic Conflict: Fear, Diffusion, and Escalation
ISBN: 9780691016900 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The wave of ethnic conflict that has recently swept across parts of Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and Africa has led many political observers to fear that these conflicts are contagious. Initial outbreaks in such places as Bosnia, Chechnya, and Rwanda, if not contained, appear capable of setting off epidemics of catastrophic proportions. In this volume, David Lake and Donald Rothchild have organized an ambitious, sophisticated exploration of both the origins and spread of ethnic conflict, one that will be useful to policymakers and theorists alike. The editors and... The wave of ethnic conflict that has recently swept across parts of Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and Africa has led many political obse... |

Why do nations so frequently abandon unrestricted international commerce in favor of trade protectionism? David A.

Entangling Relations: American Foreign Policy in Its Century
ISBN: 9780691059914 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Throughout what publisher Henry Luce dubbed the "American century," the United States has wrestled with two central questions. Should it pursue its security unilaterally or in cooperation with others? If the latter, how can its interests be best protected against opportunism by untrustworthy partners? In a major attempt to explain security relations from an institutionalist approach, David A. Lake shows how the answers to these questions have differed after World War I, during the Cold War, and today. In the debate over whether to join the League of Nations, the United States reaffirmed...

The Maintenance and Repair of Traditional Farm Buildings: A Guide to Good Practice
ISBN: 9781848024991 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Traditional farmsteads and farm buildings make an important contribution to the remarkably varied character of England's landscape. They are fundamental to its sense of place and are as important to the character of the countryside as the pattern of fields and boundaries associated with them. Together they help to create local identity and local distinctiveness. They also provide tangible evidence of local history and forgotten skills. Retaining such buildings matters because their history tells us of past practices, technology, innovation and achievements. However, changing...

ISBN: 9781585622023 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The widespread use of nonconventional treatments, or complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), and the increasing evidence supporting their therapeutic benefits call for a concerted scientific effort to integrate treatments that work into mainstream medicines. Answering that call is the groundbreaking Complementary and Alternative Treatments in Mental Health Care, a concise, practical reference that reviews the many CAM approaches used in North America and Europe to treat -- or self-treat -- mental health problems, and the history and rationale for a variety of CAM treatments,...

The most common image of world politics involves states negotiating, cooperating, or sometimes fighting with one another; billiard balls in motion on a global pool table.

Strategic Choice and International Relations
ISBN: 9780691026978 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The strategic-choice approach has a long pedigree in international relations. In an area often rent by competing methodologies, editors David A. Lake and Robert Powell take the best of accepted and contested knowledge among many theories. With the contributors to this volume, they offer a unifying perspective, which begins with a simple insight: students of international relations want to explain the choices actors make--whether these actors be states, parties, ethnic groups, companies, leaders, or individuals. This synthesis offers three new benefits: first, the strategic... The strategic-choice approach has a long pedigree in international relations.
