Security and International Relations
Helping students identify and discuss main issues in international security today, this book evaluates the contending schools of thought and their key assumptions. It explains why states use-- or chose not to use--force to promote their causes.

The book also contains essay questions and guides to further reading.

Global Governance
How do we prevent the next pandemic? Will governments successfully tackle climate change? Will they find ways to close the gap between the haves and have-nots and to eliminate poverty? Which solution – democratic or authoritarian – will determine the global governance of a f lawed nation-state system? This unique contribution to global studies advances a multidisciplinary theory that the governments of all human societies are the tenuous outcome of the competing solutions to the Imperatives of Order, Welfare, and Legitimacy (OWL). The OWL paradigm provides a common framework to evaluate the contrasting responses of the liberal democratic, Chinese, and Russian solutions to global governan...
A Force Profonde
Presenting detailed portraits by leading authorities of the politics of human rights across the major regions of the globe, A Force Profonde: The Power, Politics, and Promise of Human Rights reveals human rights to be a force as powerful as capitalist markets and technological innovation in shaping global governance. Human rights issues mobilize populations regardless of their national, ethnic, cultural, or religious differences. Yet progress in advancing human rights globally, as Edward A. Kolodziej and the other contributors to the volume contend, depends decisively on the local support and the efforts of the diverse and divided peoples of the world—a prerequisite that remains problemati...
GOSPODARKA WOJENNA W KRÓLESTWIE POLSKIM w latach 1914–1918
W wyniku działań wojennych prowadzonych w latach 1914-1915 na terenie Królestwa Polskiego i Galicji przemysł i rolnictwo poniosły znaczne straty. W 1915 roku wywieziono do Rosji wyposażenie wielu zakładów przemysłowych. Ewakuujące się oddziały rosyjskie niszczyły drogi i infrastrukturę kolejową. Wcześniej, w październiku 1914 roku, duże zniszczenia w Królestwie spowodowały wycofujące się z guberni zachodnich wojska niemieckie. Dobrowolna i przymusowa ewakuacja ludności cywilnej do Rosji objęła ok. 1 mln osób. Spośród 1,1 mln oficerów i żołnierzy zmobilizowanych na terenie Królestwa Polskiego do wojska carskiego większość także znalazła się w Rosji. Znisz...
Governing Globalization
If the global society is to survive and thrive, the world’s populations must determine how they will govern their accumulating interdependencies across all areas of human concern. This book advances a theory of governance for democratic societies, based on the competing power structures of Order, Welfare, and Legitimacy.
Making and Marketing Arms
France ranks as the world's third largest arms exporter and supplies arms and military technology to over a hundred countries.
