Описание: It is commonly believed that international law originated in respectful relations among free and equal European states. But as Jennifer Pitts shows, international law was forged as much through Europeans` domineering relations with non-European states and empires, leaving a legacy visible in the unequal structures of today`s international order.

Описание:
A collection of essays on the politics of boundaries, this book addresses a broad range of cases, some geographical, some legal, and some involving less tangible practices of inclusion and exclusion. The book begins by exploring the boundary between modern Western forms of international relations and their constitutive outsides. Beyond this, the author engages with relations between subjectivity and security, security and nature, social movements and a world politics, as well as the politics of spatiotemporal dislocation. Two chapters address the work of Thomas Hobbes and Max Weber as exemplary accounts of the relationship between boundaries and the constitution of modern forms of politics. Each chapter speaks not only to the politics of specific boundary practices, but also to the limits within which modern politics has been shaped in relation to claims about spatiality, temporality, sovereignty and subjectivity. In this way, the book draws attention to a pervasive account of a scalar order of higher and lower that has shaped more familiar distinctions between internality and externality.
Offering an analysis of the relation between concepts of internationalism, imperialism and exceptionalism, as well as the implications of spatiotemporal dislocation for claims about democracy, the book links contemporary claims about the transformation of boundaries to various ways in which political life is said to be in crisis and in need of novel forms of critique. Brought up to date by a new and extensive introductory essay and an assessment of the status of political judgement after 9/11, this book is essential reading for students and scholars of politics, international relations, political theory and political sociology.
Описание: America`s individual freedom changed the world. Now, our government is out of control. We need representatives who use their constitutional powers against others in government. To get them, sustainably, we need to build a good party, with a party declaration, constitution, and caucuses. Here`s how. It`s the one solution; and a quick read.
This book sheds light on the changing nature of contemporary Japan by decoding a range of political, economic and social boundaries. With a focus on the period following the inauguration of Prime Minister Koizumi Junichirō, the book grows out of a recognition that, with the Koizumi administration playing a more proactive role internationally and moving ahead with deregulation and the 'structural reform' of the economy domestically, a range of boundaries have been challenged and reinscribed. Here 'boundaries' refers to the ways in which contemporary Japan is shaped as a separate entity by the inscription and reinscription of political, economic and social space creating insiders and outsiders, both internationally and domestically. The central argument of the book is that, in order to achieve the twin goals of greater international proactivity and domestic reform, the government and other actors supporting Koizumi's new direction for Japan needed to take action in order to destabilize and reformulate a range of extant boundaries. While boundaries often remain invisible, the aim of this book is to promote an understanding of their significance by uncovering their pivotal role.
Decoding Boundaries in Contemporary Japan brings together contributions from leading and emerging scholars from the UK, Japan and the United States. It will appeal to scholars and students of Japan as well as social scientists with an interest in borders and boundaries, political scientists interested in Asia.

Beginning with the Age of Exploration, Canadian Boundaries traces the evolution of Canadian sovereign territory through international treaties and other diplomatic instruments. The book shows how the country developed from the time of the initial contact by European explorers with the Americas through the resolution of the rivalries between the European powers in what is now Canada. It then turns to the subsequent diplomatic challenges posed by an expanding United States of America and shows how boundary treaties shaped the country to arrive at the borders of Canada as it exists in the early twenty-first century.

Описание:
This book examines federalism and functionalism – two fundamental, yet largely forgotten, theories of international integration. Following the recent outbreak of the war in Ukraine, policy practitioners and scholars have been in search of a deeper understanding of the likely causes of the conflict and its consequences for the European security architecture. Various theories have been deployed to this end, but international and European integration theory remains conspicuously absent. The author shows how the core tenets of integration theories developed after World War I, particularly how they viewed territoriality and geopolitical boundaries, remain as relevant today as they were almost 100 years ago.

Описание: A conversation between historians and political scientists, exploring what the two disciplines can learn from each other.
One good political party will make everything work well.
What's wrong with U.S. politics today is that our representatives ignore the Constitution.
The solution is simple: Design a political party to elect representatives who will fully use their constitutional powers, keeping government within its required good boundaries. This will leave us free to pursue happiness ourselves.
The Constitution Needs a Good Party explains:
Why every election leaves us with a solid majority of Progressive Democrats + Progressive Republicans, who violate the Constitution.
How to list these violations as the grievances in a new party's declaration of independence from past parties, creating a pledge to support the Constitution through specific actions.
How to reuse the Constitution to structure a new party to keep the grassroots in charge.
How the Constitution-respecting presidents George Washington and Ronald Reagan were the most electable ever.
How a well-designed party would not have been rigged in 2016 to nominate Donald Trump, and the party's grassroots would have nominated Ted Cruz.
When the United States followed the Constitution better from 1789 through 1913, we changed the world. We can change the world again.
