Cosmopolitanisms
The State
New Thinking and New Directions
Theories and Issues
Robert J. Holton, Emeritus Professor, Fellow, Trinity College, Republic of Ireland
The book maps what Leonidas Donskis terms ‘the troubled identity’, that is, the identity that constantly needs assurance and confirmation. Through an identity-building-andshifting process, argues Donskis, we can move from political majority to cultural minority, or the other way around.
Cosmopolitanisms explores how social groups find ways of living productively with each other. This book analyzes theoretical approaches and research to give a new understanding of the cultural, personal, moral and legal dimensions of cosmopolitanism. This is a key critical guide to cosmopolitanism for all students of globalization and sociology.

The Importance of Neglect in Policy-Making Michiel S. De Vries, Professor of Public Administration, Radboud University, The Netherlands
De Vries argues that it is possible to explain when and in what direction policy change is likely to occur. He argues that what is neglected at present is likely to become dominant in policies of the near future. With the birth of a new policy generation a convergence towards meeting the dominant value of that generation will become evident.

Herman M. Schwartz, Professor of Politics, University of Virginia, USA
‘This edition improves on an already outstanding text. What Schwartz does here is highly unusual and highly rewarding: -he draws students into an adventure in learning that conveys knowledge about both the origins and evolution of a global political economy and the development of IPE as a branch of learning.’ - Randall D. Germain, Carleton University, Canada States Versus Markets shows that globalization is not a novel phenomenon but a recurrent process whereby markets have, since the sixteenth century, periodically redistributed economic activity.

Mittelman, Professor, School of International Service, American University, USA; author of Hyperconflict: Globalization and Insecurity (2010) While major theories of economic regionalism in the existing literature are primarily constructed to explore institutionalized regional integration, European integration in particular, the analytical framework developed in this work explains the unique process and pattern of regional integration in East Asia.

‘In this persuasive book the authors make a major contribution to the understanding of our global political economy.’ - Diana Tussie, FLACSO, Argentina Despite abundant scepticism about their economic benefits, Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) have proliferated at a rapid pace.

The collapse of US global hegemony means that the future of global relations will be defined by an integrated and mutually co-operative world order of regions in which there are multiple centres of power. These centres will continue to mature under the ideology of ‘regionalism’ and through the long historical process of ‘regionalization’.

Human rights play a crucial role in today’s international relations. They provide standards to which states must conform when dealing with their own citizens. Non-governmental human rights organizations remind states of their obligations in that field. Without this, human rights would have drifted to the bottom of the international agenda.

The quality of the peace arrived at via liberal peacebuilding approaches has been poor. The related statebuilding praxis has generally been unable to respond to its critics. What is at stake is a recognition of peacebuilding’s everyday political, social, economic, and cultural dynamics. This indicates the emergence of a post-liberal form of peace.

Malcolm Hugh Patterson, Australian Lawyer who teaches International Law and International Relations
‘…an eminently readable and thought-provoking book.’ - Dr Christopher Kinsey, Defense Studies Department, King’s College London at the Joint Command and Staff College, Defense Academy of the UK The history of United Nations peacekeeping is largely one of failure. This book puts a case for augmenting ad hoc peacekeepers with competent contract labour; and within the constraints of a new legal regime, supporting future operations with well-trained contractors who might subdue by force those who inflict gross human rights abuses on others. Contents: Introduction / UN Deployments: Alternatives to Ad Hoc Sovereign Forces / From Mercenary to UN Contractor? / The Public - Private Security Environment / Other Industry Hazards / A Modest Proposal / Conclusion / Appendices / Bibliography / Index November 2009 280pp 3 charts Hardback £60.00
This book analyzes the origins of the crisis in Zimbabwe and why it has had such a profound impact on both the land issue and democratic politics in the Southern African region.
