Constructing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Regime
Leonardo Bandarra's book, 'Nuclear Latency and The Participation Puzzle: Constructing of the International Regime,' explores the complex dynamics of nuclear latency and participation in international non-proliferation regimes. Drawing from a revised version of his PhD dissertation, Bandarra examines the roles and strategies of latent nuclear countries within the global non-proliferation framework. Through a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, the book delves into the motivations and implications of participation by countries with nuclear capabilities. It uses role theory to analyze macro and micro-level factors influencing policy and participation. The book also highlights case studies of Germany and Brazil, discussing their respective policies and strategies from 1990 to 2020. Intended for scholars of international relations, political science, and nuclear policy, this work contributes to understanding the participation puzzle in global governance.
Trajectories of Governance
Trajectories of Governance studies the complex dynamics of order-making, violence and governance in peripheral cities in Latin America from a comparative, historical and multi-scalar approach. It aims to discover more about the drivers, contexts and uneven levels of violence through the case studies of Chalatenango and Sonsonate in El Salvador and Pereira and Tunja in Colombia. Based on a multidisciplinary analytical framework, it explains why and how some peripheral cities have become the locus of violent orders, whereas others have managed to control violence, and to examine the role of violence in the workings of local governance.
Former Extremists
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read on the Oxford Academic platform and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. This collection is the first on ex-extremists and combatants (Formers) in violence prevention work. While the engagement of Formers in violence prevention programs--especially in the context of countering and preventing violent extremism (P/CVE), and peacebuilding--has expanded across the world, their involvement has been controversial and contested. This volume captures a variety of work Formers are engaged in across a range of contexts, broadly divided into three ...
The Rise of International Parliaments
This book describes and explains the development of international parliamentary institutions and asks why international organizations establish parliamentary institutions without, however, granting them relevant decision-making powers.
The Global Third Nuclear Age
This book provides an in-depth examination of the technological, geopolitical and normative pressures driving the world into a new, more complex and potentially more dangerous Third Nuclear Age. By adopting an innovative framework for analysis, the book challenges the constrained focus of much of the existing literature by explaining that the pathways to nuclear security for different actors across the globe will vary considerably in this new context. It argues that the Third Nuclear Age will be defined by friction and conflict between “Nuclear Traditionalists,” “Technological Transformers,” “Hedgers and Balancers,” and “Activists and Protestors,” as different interests and v...
Constructing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Regime: The Participation Puzzle
Scholars and practitioners usually regard the nuclear non-proliferation regime as composed of two categories of countries – those with and those without nuclear weapons. The latter are regarded as the core designers of that regime, while the former have their prominence in shaping non-proliferation institutions eclipsed or ignored. This book proposes to go beyond that duality by focusing on a usually neglected group of states: latent nuclear countries. Those are the countries that possess advanced nuclear capabilities but no weapons. This book shows that latent nuclear countries not only participate actively in non-proliferation institutions but also promote the creation of new frameworks ...
Arruda
Arruda fora, enquanto esteve de alguma forma no poder e na mídia, sem sombra de dúvida, na minha ótica, foi a personalidade mais controvérsia do cenário político brasileiro. Nem mesmo a grande raposa, Antônio Carlos Magalhães, vulgo (ACM) conseguiu ser mais sínico e contraditório. Entre as suas ações mais populares estão: Violação do painel do senado, o choro e a dissimulação - a (Mentira) em rede nacional. A propina recebida para caixa dois de campanha vista e revista na TV, com “requintes de crueldade,” pela exposição midiática exacerbada da Rede Globo, fato que o tornou a persona mais exposta da política brasileira no mundo todo, com isto piorou a imagem, já arru...
Sanctions for Nuclear Disarmament and Non-Proliferation
This book examines the interplay between sanctions and nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation. The volume aims to tackle three separate but closely intertwined issues: It aims to revisit the debate on, and deconstruct the concept of, sanctions; to provide a working theoretical framework; to differentiate between positive sanctions (or incentives or carrots) and negative sanctions; to identify the actors who may initiate sanctions (i.e. states, regional, and/or international organizations); to ascertain the legality and legitimacy of such sanctions taking place; to problematize and discuss the utility of sanctions; and so on. It aims to disentangle the concepts of nuclear disarmament and n...
Política criminal de enfrentamento da macrocriminalidade
Ao explicitar a agenda da política pública dirigida ao enfrentamento da macrocriminalidade, Octahydes extrai a projeção normativa presente no Direito brasileiro das Convenções de Viena, de Mérida e de Palermo, cada qual com seus reflexos e (esperados) resultados internos. A abordagem dirige-se, pois, à política criminal irradiada desses compromissos assumidos pelo Estado brasileiro na seara internacional. Seguidamente, a pesquisa distingue temas que comumente são confundidos no momento de se pensar alternativas para seu enfrentamento: como se apresentam os vetores da política brasileira de enfrentamento de cada um desses componentes da macrocriminalidade e como esses vetores se relacionam tanto com o contexto sociopolítico quanto com a ausência de presença estatal em espaços de crise emergencial (como os presídios brasileiros)?
Emerging from the Shadows
National security, war and strategy are mostly considered male preserves across the world even when, as professional scholars or policy practitioners, women have made significant contributions. Women voices and the subject of disarmament have been hidden in the shadows of mainstream security discourse for far too long. The book seeks to right-stream these by bringing together writings of women security experts, scholars and diplomats in India on issues of nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation. International efforts towards sustainable nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament are struggling to find the ‘right’ way. This book shifts the focus to the imperative of disarmament with wome...
