This book celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by showing how global human rights norms have influenced national government practices in eleven different countries around the world. Had the principles articulated in the Declaration had any effect on the behavior of states towards their citizens? What are the conditions under which international human rights norms are internalized in domestic practices? And what can we learn from this case about why, how, and under what conditions international norms in general influence the actions of states? This book draws on the work of social constructivists to examine these important issues. The contributors examine eleven countries representing five different world regions - Northern Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe - drawing practical lessons for activists and policy makers concerned with preserving and extending the human rights gains made during the past fifty years.
Maja Zehfuss' book offers a fundamental critique of constructivism, focusing on the work of Wendt, Onuf and Kratochwil. Using Germany's shift towards participation in international military operations as an illustration, she demonstrates why each version of constructivism fails in its own project and comes apart on the basis of its own assumptions. Inspired by Derridean thought, this book highlights the political consequences of constructivist representations of reality. Each critique concludes that constructivist notions of key concepts are impossible, and that this is not merely a question of theoretical inconsistency, but of politics. The book is premised on the notion that the 'empirical' and the 'theoretical' are less separate than is acknowledged in international relations, and must be read as intertwined. Zehfuss examines the scholars' role in international relations, worrying that, by looking to constructivism as the future, they will be severely curtailing their ability to act responsibly in this area.
The author explores why a large number of international organizations adopted sanctions against the apartheid regime in South Africa despite strategic and economic interests that had fostered strong ties with it in the past. She argues that the emergence of the norm of racial equality is the reason.

An ambitious volume which asks why hopes are fading for a single European identity, despite decades of European integration.
Etrafımızdaki dünyanın ve onun bilgisinin büyük bir hızla dönüşüme uğradığı bir dönemde yaşıyoruz. Bir önceki yüzyıla ait bütün bilgilerimiz hızla geçersizleşiyor, sosyal bilimlerin içindeki disiplinlerarası ayrımlar bulanıklaşıyor. Uluslararası göç, küresel ekonomik krizler, küresel çevre sorunları, enerji krizleri, ulusüstü oluşumların derinleşmesi, savaşın yeni biçimleri uluslararası ilişkiler disiplinini kuran ve onu diğer disiplinlerden ayıran, içerisi ile dışarısı arasındaki ayrımın geçerli olmadığı iddialarının yaygınlaşmasına yol açıyor. Hukuksal bir statü olarak egemenlik korunmaya devam etse de bütün bu sözü...
