Redefining Genocide: Settler Colonialism, Social Death and Ecocide
ISBN: 9781842779316 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Historically known simply as systematic mass killing of a group of people, human genocide is, in reality, an extremely subtle and complex phenomenon. In the highly controversial and original Redefining Genocide, Damian Short systematically rethinks how academia currently characterizes genocide and how it actually should define it in the future. Short uses close empirical analysis of several controversial yet underdiscussed case studies worldwide, such as Palestine, Sri Lanka, Australia, and Alberta s Tar Sands. With intense examination of topical issues such as fracking, environmental...

The Radical Imagination: Social Movement Research in the Age of Austerity
ISBN: 9781780329017 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The idea of the imagination is as evocative as it is elusive. Not only does the imagination allow us to project ourselves beyond our physical and temporal limits, it also allows us to envision the future, individually and collectively. The radical imagination, then, is that spark of difference, desire, and discontent that can be fanned into the flames of social change. Yet what precisely is the imagination and what might make it 'radical'? How can it be fostered and cultivated? How can it be studied and what are the possibilities and risks of doing so?This book seeks to answer these questions...

ISBN: 9781780322681 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Numbers dominate global politics and as a result our everyday lives. Credit ratings steer financial markets and can make or break the future of entire nations. GDP drives our economies. Stock market indices flood our media and national debates. Statistical calculations define how we deal with climate change, poverty and sustainability. But what is behind these numbers? By what processes are they created? In How Numbers Rule the World Lorenzo Fioramonti reveals the hidden agendas underpinning the use of statistics and those who control them. Most worryingly, he shows how numbers have been used...

Africa's Development Impasse: Rethinking the Political Economy of Transformation
ISBN: 9781842779712 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Orthodox strategies for socio-economic development have failed spectacularly in Southern Africa. Neither the developmental state nor neoliberal reform seems able to provide a solution to Africa's problems.
In Africa's Development Impasse, Stefan Andreasson analyses this failure and explores the potential for post-development alternatives. Examining the post-independence trajectories of Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa, the book shows three different examples of this failure to overcome a debilitating colonial legacy. Andreasson then argues that it is now time to resuscitate... Orthodox strategies for socio-economic development have failed spectacularly in Southern Africa.

Posthuman International Relations: Complexity, Ecologism and Global Politics
ISBN: 9781848135154 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this bold intervention, Cudworth and Hobden draw on recent advances in thinking about complexity theory to call for a profound re-envisioning of the study of international relations. As a discipline, IR is wedded to the enlightenment project of overcoming the "hazards" of nature, and thus remains constrained by its blinkered "human-centered" approach. Furthermore, as a means of predicting major global-political events and trends, it has failed consistently. Instead, the authors argue, it is essential we develop a much more nuanced and sophisticated analysis of global political systems,...

From Recipients to Donors
ISBN: 9781848139466 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Foreign aid has seen enormous changes in the last decade. In the early millennium, it appeared that donor nations might succeed in combating partisan interests, and commit to a new era of coordinated policies and practices. However, the last few years have witnessed a number of challenges to this model: the problematic intrusion of security agendas; inherent difficulties in harmonization and alignment; and difficulties in securing promised finances after the financial crises. One of the key challenges arises from the growing proliferation of donors, with the growing flow of development... Foreign aid has seen enormous changes in the last decade.

Insecure Spaces: Peacekeeping, Power and Performance in Haiti, Kosovo and Liberia
ISBN: 9781842778869 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this book, Paul Higate and Marsha Henry develop critical perspectives on UN and NATO peacekeeping, arguing that these forms of international intervention are framed by the exercise of power. Their analysis of peacekeeping, based on fieldwork conducted in Haiti, Liberia and Kosovo, suggests that peacekeeping reconfigures former conflict zones in ways that shape perceptions of security. This reconfiguration of space is enacted by peacekeeping personnel who "perform" security through their daily professional and personal practices, sometimes with unanticipated effects. "Insecure Spaces"'... In this book, Paul Higate and Marsha Henry develop critical perspectives on UN and NATO peacekeeping, arguing that these forms of international int... |

City Futures: Confronting the Crisis of Urban Development
ISBN: 9781842775417 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cities are the future. In the past two decades, a global urban revolution has taken place, mainly in the South. The 'mega-cities' of the developing world are home to over 10 million people each and even smaller cities are experiencing unprecedented population surges. The problems surrounding this influx of people - slums, poverty, unemployment and lack of governance - have been well-documented.
This book is a powerful indictment of the current consensus on how to deal with these challenges. Pieterse argues that the current 'shelter for all' and 'urban good governance' policies treat only...

Al-Qaeda: From Global Network to Local Franchise
ISBN: 9781848139091 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Since the attacks of September 11th 2001 and up to and beyond Osama bin Ladin's death, al-Qaeda has come to embody the new enigmatic face of terrorism, dominating discussions of national and international security. Yet in spite of the attention it receives, conflicting assumptions about the group abound. Is al-Qaeda a rigidly structured organization, a global network of semi-independent cells, a franchise, or simply an idea whose time has come? What is meant by talk of the global Salafi jihad that is confronting the West? What are the implications of bin Ladin's death? Christina Hellmich...
