Créateur du « droit d'ingérence », Mario Bettati, professeur de droit international, raconte ici comment, dans quelles circonstances politiques précises et dans quel contexte juridique concret, s'est constitué le droit d'ingérence humanitaire.Ce livre est divisé en quatre parties qui suivent un ordre chronologique et logique à la fois. Après l'ingérence comme dénonciation verbale, puis l'ingérence comme assistance médicale, il traite de l'ingérence forcée (Yougoslavie, Somalie, Rwanda) et finit par l'ingérence dissuasive (tribunaux pour crimes contre l'humanité et observatoire des conflits).
New Culture, New Right is the first English-language study of the identitarian movements presently reshaping the contours of European politics. The study's focus is Alain de Benoist's GRECE (Groupement de Recherche et d'Etude pour la Civilisation Européenne), which Paul Piccone of Telos described as the most interesting group of continental thinkers since the existentialists of the 1950s and which elsewhere is seen as the leading school of contemporary Right-wing thought. Made up of veterans from various nationalist, traditionalist, far Right, and regionalist movements, the GRECE began as an association of French intellectuals committed to restoring the crumbling cultural foundations of Eur...

Based on 30 years of fieldwork in the Niger Delta, this book debunks the determinism of the resource curse theory in Nigeria, Africa's leading oil producer and the most populous country on the continent. It rather shows that oil and gas production is only one element of a social problem with much deeper roots. It also investigates the role played by the youth, a key issue in a society where half of the population is under 18 years old. To understand the multiple causes of the crisis, it thus delves into the complexity of a rich history.
The driving concept of the book's analysis, whether global or regional, is to examine the pertinent international trade regulations in services in the light of the very special nature of gambling. --

This unique two-volume work seeks for the first time to address in a comprehensive fashion both "substantive" and "procedural" aspects of international criminal law as applied by international and national courts.

In addressing these subjects the work focuses on the practical application of the relevant norms and provides both detailed commentaries by...
Almost half a century has passed since the Nigerian Civil War ended. But memories die hard, because a million or more people perished in that internecine struggle, the majority women and children, who were starved to death. Biafra’s war was modern Africa’s first extended conflict. It lasted almost three years and was based largely on ethnic, by inference, tribal grounds. It involved, on the one side, a largely Christian or animist southeastern quadrant of Nigeria which called itself Biafra, pitted militarily against the country’s more populous and preponderant Islamic north. These divisions – almost always brutal – persist. Not a week goes by without reports coming in of Christian ...
