A Foucauldian Approach to International Law

Descriptive Thoughts for Normative Issues

By: Leonard M. Hammer

Foucault's challenging view of power and knowledge as the basis for interpreting the international system forms the central themes of this book. As the application of international law expands and develops this book considers how Foucault's approach may create a viable framework that is not beset by ontological issues. With International law essentially stuck within an older framework of outmoded statist approaches, and overly broad understanding of the significance of external actors such as international organizations; current interpretations are either rooted in a narrow attempt to demonstrate a functioning normative structure or interpret developments as reflective of some emerging and somewhat unwieldy ethical order. This book therefore aims to ameliorate the approaches of a number of different 'schools' within the disciplines of international law and international relations, without being wedded to a single concept. Current scholarship in international law tends to favour an unresolved critique, a utopian vision, or to refer to other disciplines like international relations without fully explaining the significance or importance of taking such a step. This book analyses a variety of problems and issues that have surfaced within the international system and provides a framework for consideration of these issues, with a view towards accounting for ongoing developments in the international arena.

The Onset of Global Governance

International Relations Theory and the International Criminal Court

By: Eric K. Leonard

Assessing the formation process of the International Criminal Court (ICC), this study provides a fuller and richer understanding of this institution. It does so by adopting three analytical approaches: neoliberal institutionalism, regime theory and global governance. Examining the implications of the ICC, the volume draws conclusions about the changing nature of world politics in terms of conflict management, authority, governance and actor relevance. It is highly suitable for courses and research in humanitarian and international law, international relations theory, globalization, global governance and regime formation.

An Introduction to the Causes of War

Patterns of Interstate Conflict from World War I to Iraq

By: Greg Cashman,Leonard C. Robinson

This pioneering book, now thoroughly updated to incorporate important research, explains the causes of war through a sustained combination of theoretical insights and detailed case studies. Cashman and Robinson find that while all wars have multiple causes, certain factors typically combine in identifiable “dangerous patterns.” Through their examination of World War I, World War II in the Pacific, the Six-Day War, the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, the Iran-Iraq War, and the US invasion of Iraq, the authors lay out the complex multilevel processes by which disputes between countries erupt into bloody conflicts. Ideal for a range of courses in international relations at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, this focused text clearly explains theory and applies it to concrete case-study examples in a way that allows students to fully understand the origins of war.

The Allyn & Bacon Handbook

By: Leonard J. Rosen,Laurence Behrens

It's a profession where the dynamics of fear, fast cars, faster money, and spontaneous, yet controlled violence, need to be properly understood. You must balance brute force with intelligent instinct, know every escape route blindfolded, and spot the trouble-makers before they make their move. Because when you're leaving the scene of a crime at 100mph, just one forced error can spell death. This is the phenomenal autobiography of one of the most daring armed robbers of his generation. He reveals the secrets of his success, and tells how while on the run he came to be Britain's most wanted criminal, leading to the gripping chain of events that led to his last ill-fated job. It was a job that nearly cost him his life and left him facing a 20-year stretch.

Decisions

A Writer's Handbook

By: Leonard J. Rosen

This is a brief handbook that emphasizes writing as a decision-making process. No other handbook matches this text's coverage of critical thinking at the essay, paragraph, and sentence levels. Parts I, II, & III offer an introduction to effective critical thinking, reading, and writing as well as comprehensive coverage of the writing process and writing from sources. Parts IV through VII cover the decisions involved in basic sentence construction, style, punctuation, mechanics and spelling. In each chapter, critical decisions boxes guide students through analyses of key issues. One of these chapters introduces ways of thinking about the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences, and introduces typical writing scenarios. Sample essays and strategies address each discipline area's ways of knowing or arguing. Another chapter on provides guidelines for using and citing CD-ROMs, online data bases, and the Internet, including suggestions for evaluating sources. An appendix on using the Internet gives additional tools and resources. Each chapter also contains boxes highlighting key points, and computer tips with advice on how to conduct research, compose, revise, and edit using the latest technologies.
