Legal Rules and International Society
This book provides an interdisciplinary examination of international law by addressing four critical questions: How are international legal rules distinctive? How does an investigator determine the existence of a rule of international law? Does international law really matter in international politics? and What effect could the changing nature of international relations have on international law? Using Constructivist theory, Arend argues that international law can alter the identity of states, and, consequently, have a profound impact on state behavior.
International Law and the Use of Force
When the United Nations Charter was adopted in 1945, states established a legal `paradigm' for regulating the recourse to armed force. In the years since then, however, significant developments have challenged the paradigm's validity, causing a `pardigmatic shift'. International Law and the Use of Force traces this shift and explores its implications for contemporary international law and practice.

The Last Campaign
Learn the hidden politics & history of presidential libraries, our taxpayer-funded American shrines - including the untold story of a president who broke the law to build his library on a tract of spectacular land: a primary training base for the United States Marines. The president took it anyway - during a time of war - and created a new bureaucracy to cover up his actions; only his other, larger crimes put an end to his scheme."The Last Campaign" examines what presidents do to keep us from knowing what presidents do: skewed history, self-commemoration, the influence of private money and political organizations, and a compromised government agency - the National Archives, which operates th...
What Are We Teaching Them?
As the lone conservative in his university's social science department, Dr Anthony Clark views things somewhat differently to his colleagues. Whilst they obsess over 'social justice' and 'diversity' figures, Clark navigates his way through the madness of university bureaucracy, and the obsession with 'student satisfaction' in a world where the £9000 per year cheque is King, and prospective students are offered places regardless of aptitude or ability. Between documenting the decline of the British university, and deconstructing the 'social justice' madness that plagues modern campuses, Dr Clark laments the death of standards at his institution and others, and what this means for the value of social science degrees today. All this is done through a series of anecdotes taken from Dr Clark's time lecturing, which range from the humorous, to the infuriating, to the downright absurd. Join Anthony as he guides you through the realities of 'higher education' in modern Britain, and asks the reader to consider: What Are We Teaching Them?
