Global Security Upheaval: Armed Nonstate Groups Usurping State Stability Functions
ISBN: 9780804784986 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book calls into question the commonly held contentions that central governments are the most important or even the sole sources of a nation's stability, and that subnational and transnational nonstate forces are a major source of global instability. By assessing recent real-world trends, Mandel reveals that areas exist where it makes little sense to rely on state governments for stability, and that attempts to bolster such governments to promote stability often prove futile. He demonstrates how armed nonstate groups can sometimes provide local stability better than states, and how...

Dark Logic: Transnational Criminal Tactics and Global Security
ISBN: 9780804769921 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 267 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since the end of the Cold War, transnational non-state forces have been a major source of global instability, with many ominous and disruptive flows of people, goods, and services moving readily across international boundaries. And because these activities are so multifaceted and so intertwined within the fabric of society, they remain largely invisible until the intrusion is well-advanced and difficult to reverse. Thus, the threat posed by transnational organized crime ultimately undermines the total security of countries--including the economic, cultural, and political...
