Globalization and Sovereignty
Sovereignty and the sovereign state are often seen as anachronisms; Globalization and Sovereignty challenges this view. Jean L. Cohen analyzes the new sovereignty regime emergent since the 1990s evidenced by the discourses and practice of human rights, humanitarian intervention, transformative occupation, and the UN targeted sanctions regime that blacklists alleged terrorists. Presenting a systematic theory of sovereignty and its transformation in international law and politics, Cohen argues for the continued importance of sovereign equality. She offers a theory of a dualistic world order comprised of an international society of states, and a global political community in which human rights and global governance institutions affect the law, policies, and political culture of sovereign states. She advocates the constitutionalization of these institutions, within the framework of constitutional pluralism. This book will appeal to students of international political theory and law, political scientists, sociologists, legal historians, and theorists of constitutionalism.

Editorial and authorial voices in EFL academic journal publishing
"This volume of work is intended as a natural successor to "Accepting alternative voices in EFL journal articles" (Nunn & Adamson, 2009) in which we looked into the possibilities of challenging the standard evaluation criteria and review procedure for EFL journal submissions to the Asian EFL Journal. Continuing this exploration into issues impacting upon academic publishing in EFL, chapters 2-6 pursue the issue of authorial voice where there seems to be an increasing consensus that a first person voice has a legitimate role beyond the humanities field. In chapters 7 to 9, the focus shifts to the wider perspectives of the journal reviewer or editor as researcher, exploring issues which directly shape their academic world views. This is an essential step in recognizing that research is necessary to both raise awareness of journal staff about authorial voice in publishing, especially those of non-Anglophone scholars, and also about how reviewers and editors construct their own identity, how they perceive their responsibilities and how they position the journals for which they work."--John Adamson.

Imágenes de resistencia
"La historia se descompone en imágenes, no en historias" nos dice Walter Benjamin en el Libro de los pasajes. ¿De qué tipo de imágenes nos habla el filósofo? Son iluminaciones profanas que se manifiestan en tiempos de crisis y que nos ayudan a organizar la realidad misma de nuestro pesimismo. Pierre Fédida, psicoanalista, nos dice que "definitivamente el duelo pone al mundo en movimiento", y en este sentido, ¿no es acaso, como escribe Didi-Huberman, "que perder nos subleva después de que la pérdida nos aniquiló?". Este libro es una apuesta a las resistencias desde la historia y las artes.
