Theories of International Regimes
ISBN: 9780521598491 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. International regimes are "codes of conduct" agreed upon by states to govern their relations in specific areas of international politics. This book describes and critically examines the three most important theories of international regimes. These theories each stress a particular explanatory variable: realist theories emphasize state power; neoliberal theories focus on constellations of interests; and cognitivist theories are concerned with knowledge and ideas. The authors conclude by exploring the prospects for progress within this dynamic field by combining different theoretical...

Rationality and the Analysis of International Conflict
ISBN: 9780521398107 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, Michael Nicholson outlines social scientific approaches to international relations and then describes the problems of rational decision-making in conflict situations. He shows how rationality is in many strategic situations hard to define and often leads to paradoxes such as the prisoners dilemma, and explores rational beliefs about the international system. He examines theories of arms races, alliances, and the international problems of ecology. Here he is critical of the classical school of international relations for a lack of rigor in dealing with the problems of evidence...

Democracy and Coercive Diplomacy
ISBN: 9780521796699 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Schultz explores the effects of democratic politics on coercive diplomacy. He argues that open political competition between government and opposition parties influences threats in international crises, how rival states interpret those threats, and whether or not crises can be settled short of war. Compared to their nondemocratic counterparts, democracies make threats more selectively, but those they do make are more likely to be successful--that is, to gain a favorable outcome without war. Schultz uses game-theoretic models and tests the resulting hypothesis using both statistical analyses...

Deterrence Now
ISBN: 9780521529693 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. With stocks reduced, and plans revised, relations between states with nuclear arsenals have been transformed after the Cold War. However, Patrick Morgan argues that these changes have not been accompanied by great advances in our knowledge of whether and how deterrence works. He accordingly explores the state of deterrence theory and its continuing relevance under conditions of nuclear proliferation, collective security organizations, and a revolution in military affairs.

Justice and the Genesis of War
ISBN: 9780521558686 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this major study of the causes of war, David Welch argues that, contrary to the received wisdom in academic and policy circles, states are often motivated by sincere concern for the perceived demands of justice, not merely by self interest. By examining the outbreak of five Great Power wars (the Crimean War, the Franco-Prussian War, World War I, World War II, and the Falklands War), Welch demonstrates the importance of the justice motive in state behavior, using both historical and philosophical analysis to shed new light on an old problem.

Political Realism in International Theory
ISBN: 9780521556354 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The discipline of international relations is a fragmented one. In this book, Roger Spegele analyzes this fragmentation and suggests that the subject should be seen as engaged in a struggle among three competing conceptions: positivism-empiricism, emancipatory international relations, and political realism. He argues that scholars following these different conceptions have had different ways of understanding theory, practice and the relation between them. By focusing on this relation, Professor Spegele develops a new version of political realism, called "Evaluative Political Realism."

The Realist Tradition and the Limits of International Relations
ISBN: 9780521827522 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although thinkers such as Thucydides, Rousseau and Hobbes are considered central to the realist tradition, Michael Williams re-evaluates their positions. Arguing that such philosophers were not concerned with methodological issues of rationality and anarchy, as commonly interpreted, Williams asserts that they wanted to establish political practices for leaders which would ensure order. His original interpretation of major thinkers will interest scholars of international relations and the history of ideas.

The State, War, and the State of War
ISBN: 9780521577908 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why do we have Rwandas, Bosnias, and Somalias? This book explores the sources of such bitter, prolonged conflicts that result in immense human tragedies of civilian deaths and mass refugee flows. The author argues that such conflicts, and not wars between states, are the wars of the future. What can the United Nations and other international institutions do about them? Can organizations designed to manage conflicts between states successfully manage wars whose origins are domestic? The author develops some ideas about conflict resolution and peace derived from such recent experiences of war.

The Republican Legacy in International Thought
ISBN: 9780521585996 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Republicanism has enjoyed a revival of scholarly interest in several fields. In this book, Nicholas Onuf provides a treatment of the republican way of thinking about law, politics and society in the context of international thought. He tells two stories about republicanism, starting with Aristotle and culminating in the 18th century, when international thought became a distinctive enterprise. These two stories surround the thought of Vattel and Kant, and by telling them side by side the author identifies a substantial but little-acknowledged legacy of republicanism in contemporary discussions...
