Religion and Humane Global Governance
ISBN: 9780312233372 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Falk argues that the failure to achieve what he terms "humane global governance" is partially due to the exclusion of religious and spiritual dimensions of human experience from the study and practice of government. The book begins with a section on dominant world order trends and tendencies with respect to global governance. This is followed by consideration of the extent to which these recent world order trends that are shaping the historical situation at the end of the second millennium are also creating a new, unexpected opening for religious and spiritual energies, a development that has...

Humanitarian Intervention and Legitimacy Wars: Seeking Peace and Justice in the 21st Century
ISBN: 9780415815178 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the aftermath of the Cold War there has been a dramatic shift in thinking about the maintenance of peace and security on a global level. This shift is away from a preoccupation with how to prevent major wars between sovereign states to a preoccupation about non-state transnational warfare and violence and strife within states in a world order that continues to be juridically and politically delimited by spatial ideas of national sovereignty and national independence as signified by international boundaries. In this book, Richard Falk draws upon these changes to... In the aftermath of the Cold War there has been a dramatic shift in thinking about the maintenance of peace and security on a global level.

In this scathing analysis of Israel-Palestine coverage in the US media, Howard Friel and Richard Falk reveal the persistent ways the New York Times has ignored principles of international law in order to shield its readers from Israel's lawlessness.

Furthermore, the Times regularly ignores or...
