New & Old Wars: Organized Violence in a Global Era
ISBN: 9780804785495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. New and Old Wars has fundamentally changed the way both scholars and policy-makers understand contemporary war and conflict. In the context of globalization, this path-breaking book has shown that what we think of as war is becoming an anachronism. In its place is a new type of organized violence or 'new wars'--a mixture of war, organized crime, and massive violations of human rights. This new edition has been fully revised and updated, and includes an afterword answering the critics of the New Wars argument. A new chapter shows how old war thinking in Afghanistan and Iraq greatly...

Global Civil Society: An Answer to War
ISBN: 9780745627571 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The terms global and civil society became the new buzzwords of the 1990s. In this book, Mary Kaldor argues that this is no coincidence and that the reinvention of civil society has to be understood in the context of globalization. The concept of civil society is no longer confined to the borders of the territorial state. The end of the Cold War and global interconnectedness have broken the link between states, civil society and war, and blurred the distinction between a democratic West and a non-democratic East and South. This has opened up new possibilities for political emancipation as well...

Human Security: Reflections on Globalization and Intervention
ISBN: 9780745638546 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. There is a real security gap in the world today. Millions of people in regions like the Middle East or East and Central Africa or Central Asia where new wars are taking place live in daily fear of violence. Moreover new wars are increasingly intertwined with other global risks the spread of disease, vulnerability to natural disasters, poverty and homelessness. Yet our security conceptions, drawn from the dominant experience of World War II and based on the use of conventional military force, do not reduce that insecurity; rather they make it worse.

Global Insecurity
ISBN: 9781855676459 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first half of the 1990s was a period of great optimism about humanitarian intervention. In the aftermath of the Cold War, it was hoped that the international community could begin to act cohesively in defence of fundamental international principles and that a global security policy aimed at the prevention of conflict and upholding human rights could be established. The actual experience of this period, however, has been sobering. Agreements engineered from above, like the Dayton Agreement or the Oslo Agreement, have mixed consequences. Efforts at humanitarian relief have often ended up...

Global Civil Society: An Answer to War
ISBN: 9780745627588 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The terms 'global' and 'civil society' have both become part of the contemporary political lexicon. In this important new book, Mary Kaldor argues that this is no coincidence and that the reinvention of civil society has to be understood in the context of globalization. The concept of civil society is no longer confined to the borders of the territorial state. Whether one considers dissidents in repressive regimes, landless labourers in Central America, campaigners against land mines or global debt, or even religious fundamentalists, it is now possible for them to link up with other...

National, European and Human Security: From Co-Existence to Convergence
ISBN: 9781138109827 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines how national security strategies relate to an emerging common European or global vision of security, and to human security ideas. Human security and national security are often regarded as competing and mutually antagonistic; the former was proposed and has been operationalised in ways which represent a paradigm shift away from state-centric approaches and the dominance of national-security perspectives. This has led to human security being associated with a broadening of the security agenda to encompass not only physical security, the use of force and military...
