ISBN: 9780742551626 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The impact of severe security crises on peace negotiations represents one of the most significant facets of modern conflict resolution theory to remain under-researched.

ISBN: 9781845190972 / Angielski / Twarda / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An explanation of the American commitment to Israel within a framework of political culture, this work discusses how, although political culture is not the sole explanatory factor in the development of U.S. policy toward Israel, it has played a key role in serving to shape and define the American approach to foreign affairs, thus contributing to decisions and operations that cannot easily be explained solely in geopolitical, economic, or military terms. The book notes that the rationale for Washington s enduring commitment to Israel has long been a puzzle as during the Cold War, it was argued...

Inventing International Society: A History of the English School
ISBN: 9780333643457 / Angielski / Twarda / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Inventing International Society is a narrative history of the English School of International Relations. After E.H.

Diplomatic Interventions: Conflict and Change in a Globalizing World
ISBN: 9781403915405 / Angielski / Twarda / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Diplomatic Interventions argues that war is a social construction. In so doing, it unsettles the definition of intervention, as a coercive interference by one state in the affairs of another, to examine the range of communicative or 'diplomatic' practices which through their presence modify the experience of war. The tension between claims that war is pervasive and that war is a social construct is analysed in relation to a range of moral, legal, military, economic, cultural, and therapeutic interventions. The concluding chapter highlights how the book itself is a critical intervention that...
