Gerry Stoker, Professor of Governance, University of Southampton, UK
‘Readable, informative and insightful...Gerry Stoker dispels many misconceptions about what politics is and should be. His sober optimism backed up by careful consideration of a wide range of evidence, provides a valuable corrective to the relentless negativity and cynicism towards politics peddled in so much of the media. He makes a forceful and persuasive case for why politics matters and how to reclaim it for citizens.’ - Andrew Gamble, University of Cambridge, UK ‘[W]ritten in a very accessible and engaging style... Professor Stoker’s book makes a very powerful argument [and one] very illuminating of the true meaning and functioning of politics.’ - Steven Van de Walle, Local Government Studies Achieving mass democracy was the great triumph of the last century. Learning to live with it will be the greatest achievement of this one. Stoker suggests that democracy must create a new politics, making it as easy as possible for as many people to participate.

Preface by Strobe Talbott
‘Mr Asmus writes with authority...The book’s detailed inside accounts of Georgian and Western maneuvering before, during and after the war are gripping.’ - The Economist ‘This book poses tough and awkward questions that many in the West do not want to hear.’ - The Wall Street Journal Europe The brief war between Russia and Georgia in August 2008 seemed to many like an unexpected shot out of the blue. Former Assistant Deputy Secretary of State Ronald Asmus contends that it was a conflict that was prepared and planned for some time by Moscow, part of a broader strategy to send a message to the United States.

India Express The Future of the New Superpower Daniel Lak, Reporter with the BBC who reported on the Indian sub-continent for twelve years, working from Pakistan and New Delhi
Mark Anderson, Assistant Professor of Asian Languages and Literatures, University of Minnesota, USA
‘[Lak] is rarity among journalists - one who portrays his subjects with elegance, compassion and humour.’- Tim McGirk, Time Magazine
Japan and the Specter of Imperialism examines competing Japanese responses to the late nineteenth century unequal treaty regime as a confrontation with liberal imperialism, including the culture and gender politics of US territorial expansion into the Pacific.

Jennifer C. Seely, Assistant Professor, Politics Department, Earlham College, USA

Israel on Trial
Israeli Exceptionalism
Alan M. Dershowitz, a world-renowned Author, Criminal Lawyer, Civil Liberties Defender and Harvard Law Professor; Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law, Harvard Law School, USA
The Destabilizing Logic of Zionism
Reviews of The Case for Israel: ‘Dershowitz is especially effective at pointing to the hypocrisy of many of Israel’s critics.’ - The New York Times ‘It should be read by all who seek to be genuinely informed on the Middle East conflict.’ - The Jewish Chronicle
This book discusses the small band of European Zionists, who entered the world stage in late nineteenth century, determined to create a Jewish state and considers how, at that time in Europe, Jewish-Gentile frictions were local problems, whilst today in Israel they have come to form the pivot of global conflict.
In this comprehensive ideological, political, and military analysis, esteemed human rights lawyer, Alan M. Dershowitz, differentiates the threat posed by Palestinian military offensives and suicide bombers, which affect the personal safety of Israeli citizens, from the larger enemies that threaten Israel as a national entity.

‘In short, a first-rate scholarly contribution which has implications for contemporary politics.’Shahram Chubin, Director of Studies, Geneva Centre for Security Policy, Switzerland In the early 1950s, frail septuagenarian prime minister of Iran, Doctor Mohammad Mosaddeq, shook the world - challenging Britain by nationalizing Iran’s British-run oil industries. In August 1953 he was overthrown. Revisiting these events with astonishing new evidence, this book challenges the conventionally-held theory of foul play by the CIA.

GLOBALIZATION, THE STATE AND POLITICAL SOCIOLOGY
States Versus Markets
Rethinking Imperialism
The Emergence of a Global Economy 3rd edition 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. And he brings it up to-date in a manner that places students at the centre of important contemporary debates. If students have a choice of textbooks, this is the one.’ - 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. This revised and updated edition takes account of the new rise of Asia and the global financial crisis originating in the US housing finance system.
Ray Kiely, Professor of International Politics, Queen Mary and Westfield Colege, University of London, UK
Imperialism has become a key focus of debate about world politics in the post-9/11 world.

GLOBALIZATION, THE STATE AND POLITICAL SOCIOLOGY
The International Migration of Health Workers Ethics, Rights and Justice
Global Marriage Cross-Border Marriage Migration in Global Context
Security, Citizenship and Human Rights Shared Values in Uncertain Times
Edited by Rebecca Shah, Teaching Fellow, Centre for Professional Ethics, University of Keele, UK
Lucy Williams, University of Kent, UK
Derek McGhee, Reader in Sociology, University of Southampton, UK
Experts from ethicists and political philosophers to clinicians and trade unionists seek answers to a number of key ethical questions to further a deeper understanding of the ethics of health worker migration.

This book presents a uniquely global view of an expanding field that challenges these and other stereotypes of cross-border marriage.
This book examines counter-terrorism, immigration, citizenship, human rights, ‘equalities’ and the shifting discourses of ‘shared values’ and human rights in contemporary Britain.

Nationalism and Its Logical Foundations
The Transformative Power of Discourse
Amílcar Antonio Barreto, Associate Professor, Northeastern University, USA

Loader, University of York, UK Why are young people alienated from television news?

Review of previous editions: ‘It is hard to find a better textbook about health policy in Britain for students with little existing knowledge. However, it can also be highly recommended for readers who work in the NHS, but want to make more sense of the often confusing web of policies and imperatives. This book manages to synthesize a maze of material in a readable form and enlightens as well as informs.’ - Public Health Systematically updated throughout, the sixth edition of this leading text takes the story of health policy to the end of the Blair era and into the early years of the Brown premiership. It offers a clear and thorough introduction to the history of the NHS, its funding and priorities, and to the process of policy making.

Hancock argues that there are three governance structures states can use when designing integration accords: plutocratic, supranational and intergovernmental.

Policy Networks and Policy Change
Plain Words and Forgotten Deeds
Putting Policy Network Theory to the Test
Ann Scott, Adjunct Professor of Criminology, University of Queensland, Australia
Hugh Compston, Reader in Politics, School of European Studies, Cardiff University, UK
This book draws on previously inaccessible family archives to penetrate the anonymity and public reticence of one of Britain’s great twentieth century civil servants. Gowers was highly influential in public policy throughout his long civil service career, which began in 1903 and culminated in running London’s civil defence throughout the Second World War.
This study applies policy network theory to major technological, economic, environmental and social trends to generate propositions about the future of public policy. Among the findings are that we should expect more business-friendly policies, more intrusive law enforcement, more women-friendly policies, and stronger climate policies.
