Security Studies
ISBN: 9780415456012 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 2120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Security Studies traces its origins to work on the causes of war. It remains the most significant subdiscipline of International Relations and, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, its concerns with the security of the international system and the individual, as well as the state, remain as pertinent and urgent as ever. While--especially since the events of 11 September 2001 and the remilitarization of US foreign policy--the focus on states and military power remains central to Security Studies, the subject also embraces economic, societal, and environmental security. Furthermore,... Security Studies traces its origins to work on the causes of war. It remains the most significant subdiscipline of International Relations and, at ... |

A Transformation Gap?: American Innovations and European Military Change
ISBN: 9780804763776 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. NATO member states are all undergoing some form of military transformation. Despite a shared vision, transformation has been primarily a US-led process centered on the exploitation of new information technologies in combination with new concepts for "networked organizations" and "effects-based operations." Simply put, European states have been unable to match the level of US investment in new military technologies, leading to the identification of a growing "transformation gap" between the US and the European allies. This book assesses the extent and trajectory of military transformation...

ISBN: 9781349251117 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Why are certain weapons acquired in the United States and others not? Theo Farrell addresses this question by examining the strategic, institutional and budgetary issues surrounding four major weapon programmes. Extensive use is made of primary sources in analysing the origins, development and outcomes of these programmes. This book presents alarming evidence to show how the military services manipulate weapons acquisition to suit their own ends rather than national security. It also analyses how Congress, motivated by concerns over cost, comes to play a greater role in shaping programme...

Military Adaptation in Afghanistan
ISBN: 9780804785884 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When NATO took charge of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) for Afghanistan in 2003, ISAF conceptualized its mission largely as a stabilization and reconstruction deployment. However, as the campaign has evolved and the insurgency has proved to more resistant and capable, key operational imperatives have emerged, including military support to the civilian development effort, closer partnering with Afghan security forces, and greater military restraint. All participating militaries have adapted, to varying extents, to these campaign imperatives and pressures. This...

Force and Legitimacy in World Politics
ISBN: 9780521691642 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. War is invariably accompanied by debate, if not controversy, over the legitimacy of using force. Alongside the longstanding state practice of justifying use of force is the increasing codification of legal rules on the use of force. In this volume a leading group of international authorities consider the issues surrounding the legitimation of force from several distinct disciplinary perspectives, including political science, law, history and philosophy. In particular, they examine the underlying question of whether and how international society's traditional norms of sovereignty and...

International Law and International Relations
ISBN: 9781107011069 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this fully updated and revised edition, the authors explore the evolution, nature and function of international law in world politics and situate international law in its historical and political context. They propose three interdisciplinary 'lenses' (realist, liberal and constructivist) through which to view the role of international law in world politics and suggest that the concept of an international society provides the overall context within which international legal developments occur. These theoretical perspectives offer different ways of looking at international law in terms of...
