This new study shows how environmental issues represent a deep problem in conceptualising the relationship between human beings and nature.

This key relationship grounds the implicit ethical and political concerns of International Relations and our understandings of environmental politics.

This timely book looks critically at the policy response to AIDS and its institutionalization over time.

First, the idea of HIV as a global emergency which calls for an extraordinary response. Second, the claim that medicine offers the best way of dealing with it. The book also identified the rise of...

In Gendering the International, the contributors explore the different ways of analyzing gender in international studies beyond the state-centric perspective of International Relations (IR). They demonstrate that it is possible to think about 'the international' beyond the traditional framework of IR. They contend IR is a set of gendered practices, by critically examining ways in which gender discourses are deployed in the analyses of 'the international'. Furthermore, they reflect on the interactions between gender and globalizing forces in a post-colonial environment.
