African Foreign Policies in International Institutions
ISBN: 9781349959112 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 430 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book is the first to exclusively consider the foreign policy tendencies of African states in international institutions. As an edited volume offering empirically based perspectives from a variety of scholars, this project disabuses the notion that Africa should be considered a "niche" interest in the field of foreign policy analysis. It asserts that the actions of the continent's states collectively serve as an important heuristic by which to interrogate and understand the foreign policies of other global states, and are not simply "anomalously" extant entities whose actions should be...

ISBN: 9780333918289 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Africa has been noticeably absent in international relations theory. This new collection of essays by contemporary Africanists convincingly demonstrates the importance of the continent to every theoretical approach in international relations. This collection breaks new ground in how we think about both international relations and Africa, re-examining such foundational concepts as sovereignty, the state, and power; critically investigating the salience of realism, neo-liberalism, liberalism in Africa, and providing new thinking about regionalism, security and identity.

Jacques Ellul on Violence, Resistance, and War
ISBN: 9781498278881 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The last few decades seem to have ushered in new levels of violence, challenging the notion that our globalized, interconnected world offers increased prospects for cooperation and peace. Many philosophers and theologians have offered various reasons for why this might be so, but none has come so close as the French philosopher Jacques Ellul to providing a comprehensive explanation for many of the pitfalls inherent in increasing levels of technological advance. The chapters in this book explore the phenomena of violence, terrorism, and war through the lens of Elluls thought. Readers...

The discrepancy between demand and supply is worrisome within the old and new cores of the world-economy. Sub-Saharan Africa meanwhile possesses vast potential for energy resources to be further exploited. Whilst the Global North is a traditional player in the sub-Saharan energy sector, new actors from emerging economies - especially Chinaa s state-owned enterprises but also Brazilian, Indian and South African giants - have entered what appears to be a scramble for the largely untapped energy resources of the region. This...

Eurasian Regionalisms and Russian Foreign Policy
ISBN: 9781409435341 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bridging foreign policy analysis and international political economy, this volume offers a new look at the problem of agency in comparative regional integration studies. It examines evolving regional integration projects in the Eurasian space, defined as the former Soviet Union countries and China, and the impact that Russian foreign policy has had on integration in the region. Mikhail Molchanov argues that new regionalism in Eurasia should be seen as a reactive response to contemporary challenges that these developing states face in the era of globalization. Regional integration in this part...

The Caribbean is made up of a complex, enigmatic region, characterised by great disparities in size, population, geography, history, language, religion, race and politics. This is a region in which harmony and discord work in tandem, trying to link economic logic with political logic.

At the same time, this book is a comprehensive historical record especially...

Limits to Regional Integration
ISBN: 9781472453341 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Regionalization in general and regional integration in particular have taken place at a growing pace since the end of the Cold War, when states were set free from various security overlays. Regional integration is 'logical' as it is supposed to advance wealth and peace. Still, the picture is far from clear and the process of regional integration is not automatic; disintegration takes place, as we saw in the cases of the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia to mention a few. This is the case not only in states recently brought together but also in traditional states like Britain, The...

Civil Society Regionalization in Southern Africa: The Cases of Trade and Hiv/AIDS
ISBN: 9781472452375 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book investigates civil society regionalization in Southern Africa. The point of departure is the study of 'new regionalism', which refers to the wave of regional integration globally since the 1980s. However, whilst the current regionalism studies undoubtedly contributes to a deeper understanding of regional processes, important gaps remain, in particular the relatively scant emphasis given to civil society. This particularly relates to regions in the global South, including Southern Africa. The overarching aim of this book is therefore to analyse the dynamics of civil society...

The Political Economy of Regions and Regionalisms
ISBN: 9781403920904 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This volume takes the debates on the political economy of regionalization beyond their current stage, utilizing the insight that regionalization entails profound socio-cultural, economic and political restructuring. The contributions challenge the traditional formal interstate and institutional bias in analyses of regionalization, in which the EU is often presented as the model for understanding contemporary practices. Instead, they underscore the need to understand regionalization in terms of its myriad local articulations. There is not just one process of regionalization, but many.
