Peter Lee, Lecturer in Air Power Studies, King’s College London, UK

‘Peter Lee provides a nuanced, probing, and reflective examination of Blair’s essentially moral arguments in the context of both international law and the UK political scene. One of the most valuable contributions of this book is its attention to the matter of what counts for truth in ambiguous situations and the role of political leadership in shaping a public conception of truth. While Lee concludes that Blair’s judgments in the case of Iraq were wrong, his presentation takes the reader into Blair’s reasoning process in an insightful, reflectionprovoking way, so that even readers who disagree with Lee’s conclusions will benefit greatly from what he has to say.’ - James Turner Johnson, Professor of Religion, Rutgers University, USA ‘Judicious, hard-hitting, and erudite: this is a wonderful book. Drawing upon a rich account of the just war tradition, Peter Lee offers a razorsharp moral examination of Tony Blair’s role in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. This is essential reading for all scholars interested in the ethics of war: from advanced undergraduates to specialists in the field.’- Cian O’Driscoll, Lecturer in International Politics, University of Glasgow, UK Bringing together both contemporary and historical just war concepts, Peter Lee shows that Blair’s illusion of morality evaporated quickly and irretrievably after the 2003 Iraq invasion because the ideas Blair relied upon were taken out of their historical context and applied in a global political system where they no longer hold sway.

The Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats each allow their members to participate in the selection of the party leader.

‘This is an excellent book on an important subject. Hall shows how a particular view of Democracy underpins the institutions and processes of British politics and thus will affect its future - few issues are more important.’ - David Marsh, Director, Research School of Social Sciences, Australian National University, Australia ‘Why, when the case for a more pluralistic and participatory democratic settlement has never been more compelling, are Britain’s political institutions, processes and practices still ingrained with so many enduring elitist characteristics? Hall’s critical study of the British political tradition offers fascinating insights into this paradox and should be read by all those interested in understanding the real nature of political power in Britain.’ - David Richards, Professor, University of Sheffield, UK. An exploration of political traditions and their usage in explanations of British politics. This book includes an evaluation of both classical and critical approaches to the British Political Tradition. It also analyses more recent uses of political tradition by Bevir, Rhodes and Marquand.

Michael Rush, Emeritus Professor of Politics, University of Exeter, UK and Philip Giddings, Senior Lecturer in Politics and Head of Politics and International Relations, University of Reading, UK

'The British public were scandalized by the expenses farrago of the last Parliament, together with the ineffectualness of backbench MPs. The Committee on Standards in Public Life during my period as Chairman identified a self-serving culture which had developed over many years under governments of both Labour and Conservative. The 2010 election candidates promised radical change. Have the new intake of MPs the will and capacity to deliver it? This is the crucial question which this fascinating book by Philip Giddings and Michael Rush seeks to answer. It is a must read for anybody interested in the current and future health of our democratic system.' - Sir Alistair Graham, Chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life from 2004 to 2007 This first book-length study of the socialisation of MPs uses questionnaire data gathered over two Parliaments (1992-97 and 1997-2001) to find out how MPs learn about, and what their attitudes are towards, their role as a Member of Parliament. It analyzes their participation in debates, the use of Parliamentary Questions and committee work.

The 2009 Elections to the European Parliament

A Political History of the Two Irelands Brian M. Walker, Professor, School of Politics, International Studies and Philosophy, Queen’s University Belfast, UK

‘It is refreshing to encounter a book that explains the way the modern histories of the two Irelands —north and south—have intertwined and formed a dizzyingly self-reinforcing feedback system: sometimes for the better, mostly for the worse. Professor Brian Walker is one of the few writers who can catch this interaction with clarity and a strong and fair sense of evidence. I recommend this book highly to anyone who cares about where Ireland has been - and where it is going.’ - Donald Harman Akenson, Douglas Professor of History, Queen’s University, Canada This ground-breaking political history of the two Irish States provides unique new insights into the ‘Troubles’ and the peace process. It examines the impact of the fraught dynamics between the competing identities of the Nationalist-CatholicIrish Community on the one hand and the UnionistProtestant-British community on the other.

In the last quarter century, Ireland has experienced dramatic political and economic change. This broadranging text provides an accessible and up-todate introduction to Irish society, politics and culture, as well as developments in its economy and place in Europe and the world.

AMERICAN POLITICS

Challenging US Foreign Policy

The Next American Civil War

America and the World in the Long Twentieth Century

The Populist Revolt against the Liberal Elite

Edited by Bevan Sewell, Lecturer in American History, School of American and Canadian Studies, University of Nottingham, UK and Scott Lucas, Professor of American Studies, University of Birmingham , UK

Some categorizations of US power have long governed analyzes of American foreign policy concepts such as ‘empire’, ‘decline’, ‘superpower’, ‘the Cold War’ and ‘the War on Terror’ - and have led to a distortion that sees US policy measured by broad labels, rather than on its own terms. This fresh new approach seeks to challenge these terms. October 2011 Hardback

Cinematic depictions of real U.S. presidents from Abraham Lincoln to George W. Bush explore how Hollywood movies represent American history and politics on screen. Morgan and his contributors show how films blend myth and reality to present a positive message about presidents as the epitome of America’s values and idealism until unpopular foreign wars in Vietnam and Iraq led to a darker portrayal of the imperial presidency, operated by Richard Nixon and Bush forty-three. This exciting new collection further considers how Hollywood has continually reinterpreted historically significant presidents, notably Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, to fit the times in which movies about them were made. April 2011 208pp 11pp illustrations Hardback £58.00

Governance and Politics of China 3rd Fully revised and Updated edition Tony Saich, Daewoo Professor of International Affairs and Director of the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University, USA

Review of the 2nd edition: ‘Delving deep beneath the institutional façade of China’s formal political structures and processes, Tony Saich describes how China is actually governed on the ground. Combining scholarly analysis with personal insights he has produced a lively, readable study of China’s profound - and profoundly painful - transition from Mao to Market. Its title alone suggests that this is a textbook of a different stripe.’ - Richard Baum, University of California, USA Now available in a substantially revised third edition covering the changes of the Seventeenth Party Congress and Eleventh National People’s Congress and other recent developments, this major text by a leading academic authority provides a thorough introduction to all aspects of politics and governance in post-Mao China. Contents: Introduction / Diversity Within Unity / China’s Changing Road to Development, 1949-78 / China Under Reform, 1978-2010 / The Chinese Communist Party / The Central Governing Apparatus / Governance Beyond the Centre / Political Participation and Protest / The Chinese State and Society / Economic Policy / Social Policy / Foreign Policy / China’s Future Challenges

Marlène Laruelle, Sébastien Peyrouse, both Senior Research Fellows, Central Asia-Caucasus Institute and Silk Road Studies Program, Jean-François Huchet, Director, French Centre for Research on Contemporary China in Hong Kong and Bayram Balci, Director of the French Institute for Central Asian Studies

This book looks at how China and India’s growing interests in Central Asia disrupt the traditional Russia-U.S. ‘Great Game’ at the heart of the old continent. In the years to come, both Asian powers are looking to redeploy their rivalry on the Central Asian and Afghan theatres on a geopolitical, but also political and economic level.

Olli Hellmann, Lecturer in Asian Political Economy, School of Government and International Affairs, University of Durham, UK

'This excellent book makes a welcome addition to the literature on political parties. Not only does it provide us with an all-too rare Englishlanguage analysis of East Asian parties, but it makes an important contribution to the wider comparative literature by combining party theory with historical institutionalism to argue that party organizations evolve out of the interplay of structural factors and the decisions taken by particular leaders.' - Paul Webb, Professor of Politics, Department of Politics and Contemporary European Studies, University of Sussex, UK A study of processes of political party formation and change in new democracies. This book argues that to understand party organizations we need to focus on politicians’ electoral strategies.

Dr. Wing has a new and exciting perspective on the themes of democracy, constitutionalism, participation, and legitimacy, and Constructing African Democracy: Mali in Transition can be a real landmark in the field of comparative democratization in Africa, and in the study of constitutional transformation in plural societies.' - Bruce Magnusson, Professor of Politics, Whitman College, USA Based on extensive field work in Mali, this book explores the process by which constitutions and democratic institutions are constructed. It shows how innovative constitutional dialogues involving participation, and recognition of groups previously excluded from political decision-making may be the key to a legitimate constitution. Contents: Introduction / Principles of Constitutionalism / Democratic Transitions and Their Legacies in Comparative Perspective / Originating Participation: The Sovereign National Conference / Integrating Citizens and the State: Decentralization and Elections / Challenges to Inclusion: Constitutionalism and the Rights of Women / Experiments in Dialogue / Dialogue in Times of Crisis / Conclusions: Dialogue and Legitimacy January 2011 Paperback

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 'In this important book, as in many of his writings, Alan Dershowitz remains an ardent and courageous defender of Israel and what the law stands for.’ - Elie Wiesel ‘I applaud Professor Dershowitz for his consistent, principled, and reasoned defense of Israel, and, so, of the Jewish people.’ - David Mamet 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.

‘At long last a book on the Middle East which is free from the usual Western stereotypes of Arabs and Muslims. Dr Nayef Al-Rodhan is a distinguished neuroscientist and geostrategist with an intimate knowledge of the Middle East and genuine empathy for its people.

Dynamics of Political Development in Afghanistan

The Destabilizing Logic of Zionism

The British, Russian, and American Invasions

M. Shahid Alam, Professor of Economics, Northeastern University, USA

Hafizullah Emadi, Director of the Board of Directors, First Micro-Finance Bank Ltd, Afghanistan

This book discerns in the history of Zionism the plot of a Shakespearean tragedy. Zionists can only succeed by creating Islamicate enemies; they need resurgent antiSemitism to send Jewish colons to Palestine; and they must persuade/ coerce the West to stand behind their colonial project.

This book examines how dependent development and struggles for power within and outside the state apparatus led to formation of alliances with imperial powers and how the latter used these alliances to manipulate political development in Afghanistan to their own advantage. October 2010 Hardback

DEVELOPMENT AND THIRD WORLD STUDIES • GLOBALIZATION, THE STATE AND POLITICAL SOCIOlogy

Third World Citizens & the Information Technology Revolution Nivien Saleh, Assistant Professor of International Studies, University of St. Thomas, USA

‘In this engaging book Nivien Saleh successfully lays to rest the wrongheaded notion that the IT revolution is a great equalizer between rich and poor. Instead the rules of the international game and the way they are enforced put poor countries like Egypt at a great disadvantage. For the majority of the people in a globalizing world the IT revolution is a non-revolution.’ - Peter J. Katzenstein, Walter S. Carpenter, Jr. Professor of International Studies, Cornell University, USA This book challenges the widely-held view that the information technology (IT) revolution has empowered people in the Third World. Tracing the making of the global IT regime, it shows that governments and corporations of the wealthy countries dominated this process, systematically excluding representatives of low-income countries.

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.

POLITICAL THEORY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE

Theory and Methods in Political Science

POLITICAL ANALYSIS SERIES Series Editors: B. Guy Peters and Jon Pierre

3rd edition

Political science today is a dynamic discipline. Its substance, theory and methods have all changed radically in recent decades. The Political Analysis series provides a showcase for political science in all its variety and a channel for political scientists in different specialisms and different parts of the world to talk to each other and to new generations of students. Written in an accessible style, these titles provide introductions to, and exemplars of, the best work in the discipline and its various subareas.

Rational Choice Theory Potential and Limits Lina Eriksson, Social and Political Theory Program, Research School of Social Sciences, The Australian National University, Australia

‘Far enough removed to have critical distance, but close enough to understand the literature and what it seeks to achieve, this is a critique in the best sense of the word. Balanced, nonpolemical, and examining the limits as well as the limitations of rational choice theory, it deftly and elegantly fills an important niche.’ - Anthony J. McGann, University of California, Irvine, USA The heated debates about rational choice theory (RCT) in political science raise many issues but follow up on few of them. This new text discusses RCT’s fundamental assumptions and methodology, the value and use of models, and the use of theories in science, enabling a more nuanced evaluation of both the theory’s potential and limits.

Family Policy in Transformation

The Copyright Enforcement Enigma

US and UK Policies Dorian R. Woods, Lecturer, Institute of Political Science, University of Tübingen, Germany

‘Dorian Woods’ analysis of family policy and its development in the US and the UK is a significant contribution to social policy analysis. Ideas and the different ways in which they are used and change, and their effect on family policy-making are explored in a nuanced way that illustrates well the specificity of adaptation of similar ideas in different contexts.’ - Julia O’Connor, Professor of Social Policy, University of Ulster, UK In the US and UK there has been a transformation in child care, family leave, social assistance and tax credits over the last twenty years. This book explores the factors behind these changes. With detailed case studies, it shows that ideas and the power to wield them are crucial factors in the transformation of family policy.

Gender, Agency and Political Violence

Solidarity Politics for Millennials A Guide to Ending the Oppression Olympics

Edited by Linda Åhäll, Research Fellow in Political Science and International Studies and Laura J. Shepherd, Lecturer in Political Science and International Studies, both at University of Birmingham, UK

Ange-Marie Hancock, Associate Professor, University of Southern California, USA

Gender is not a ‘security issue’, but it tells us a lot about how, why and when certain subjects are written as security concerns. Thirteen case studies on violent subjects, reason, and emotion demonstrate different ways in which we understand political violence, security, resistance, power, and agency, and how we make sense of gender.

This book takes the political theory of intersectionality - the most cutting-edge approach to the politics of gender, race, sexual orientation, and class and introduces it to the general public for the first time.

‘...very useful, informative, and exceedingly well-written reference tool.’ - Mark Y. Herring, American Reference Books Annual ‘This dictionary will be of great benefit to all those who have to use or understand diplomatic terms - students and teachers of international relations, professional diplomats, and journalists.’ L. N Rangarajan, International Affairs ‘This volume[…]will demystify the language of diplomatic etiquette to students and casual readers alike.’ - Malcolm Madden, Library, Royal Institute of International Affairs, UK ‘The authors are to be commended in producing this dictionary. It will be extremely valuable to students, of course, but anyone interested in international relations will find it helpful in understanding the nature of modern diplomacy.’ Ian McGibbon, New Zealand International Review Indispensable for students of diplomacy and junior members of diplomatic services, this dictionary not only covers diplomacy’s jargon but also includes entries on legal terms, political events, international organizations, e-Diplomacy, and major figures who have occupied the diplomatic scene or have written about it over the last half millennium.
