Political Thought and International Relations: Variations on

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bell, Duncan, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, Political realism dominated the study of international relations during the Cold War. Since then, however, its fortunes have been mixed: pushed onto the backfoot during s, it has in recent years retuned to the centre of scholarly debate in international relations. Yet despite its significance in international relations theory, realism plays little role in contemporary international political theory. It is often associated with a form of crude realpolitik that ignores the role of ethical considerations in political life. This book explores an alternative understanding of realism. The contributors view realism chiefly as a diverse and complex mode of political and ethical theorising rather than either a value-neutral branch of social science or the unreflective defence of the national interest. They analyse a variety of historical and philosophical themes, probing the potential and the pathologies of realist thought. A number of the chapters offer critical interpretations of key figures in the canon of twentieth century realism, including Hans Morgenthau, E. H. Carr, and Reinhold Niebuhr. Others seek to widen the lens through which realism is usually viewed, exploring the writings of Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, and Leo Strauss. Finally, a number of the contributors engage with general issues in political theory, including the meaning and value of pessimism, the relationship between power and ethics, the role of normative political theory, and what might constitute political 'reality.' Straddling international relations and political theory, this book makes a significant contribution to both fields.

Forging a Nation: Perspectives on the Canadian Military

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Horn (Lieutenant-Colonel), Bernd, PUBLISHER: Vanwell Publishing, Forging A Nation offers a collection of essays on the development of the Canadian military experience. For more than two centuries, Canadians have taken up arms to defend the nation and our national ideals, to support our allies and to bring peace in other parts of the world. This book offers an important commentary on these actions, and the way our military experience has shaped our country's national and international identity.The essays are organized into four distinct eras: Part I covers the colonial period, from early contact with the First Nations to Canada's participation in the American Civil War and the Boer War. Part II studies the impact of the two world wars on Canada in terms of mobilization, industrial development and operational strategies. The third section examines the notion of national security from a Canadian context, identifies the distinctly Canadian style of warfare and national defence issues. Part IV explores Canada's role in international spheres-alliance relationships, Cold War participation, involvement in other areas of the globe, and includes a penetrating appraisal of our peacekeeping heritage.

Was War Necessary?: National Security and U.S. Entry Into

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Small, Melvin, PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), A diplomatic historian examines six major international wars involving the United States and concludes that American involvement was unjustified in each case. America's national security was not in fact sufficiently threatened to merit a call to arms. The author analyzes the events leading up to each war and the justification of wars in general. His book combines lively history with lucid and relevant general argument....the book is provocative and unquestionably will serve once more to bring the important question "Was War Necessary "before the public.' -- "Journal of the Early Republic, April " Small's book is successful. It undoubtedly will provoke readers to think about the irrationality of most wars and to develop a clearer rationale for those circumstances under which they would support American belligerency.' -- "The Journal of American History, December " This is one of those rare books in which the author does exactly what he set out to do and does it well. Given his definition of national security in terms of territorial integrity, economic well-being, and honour, Professor Small raises many pointed questions about US war involvements. His lucid narration, unfettered by excess detail and sprinkled with a dry and often cynical humour, provides excellent and balanced accounts of the events and politics preceding US entry into the Wars of , the Mexican-American and Spanish-American Wars, the two World Wars, and the Korean War...I recommend this book most highly as a superb general introduction to US war involvement for the lay public and for college courses. It does cause one to think and to question.' -- "Political Studies, Vol 29 No 3, Sept

Direct Methods in the Theory of Elliptic Equations

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Necas, Jindrich / Tronel, Gerard / Kufner, Alois, PUBLISHER: Springer, Necas's famous book Direct methods in the theory of elliptic equations has become standard reference material on the mathematical theory of linear elliptic equations and systems, and also on the related function spaces framework. It provides a concise and self-contained introduction to the modern theory of partial differential equations, the theory of weak solutions and related topics. It is recommended to scientists working in the field of partial differential equations, postgraduate and graduate students, and applied mathematicians. The first chapter is devoted to directs methods, introduction to the Sobolev spaces, weak solution, Lax-Milgram theorem, Galerkin metods and spectral theory. The second chapter deals with the basic properties of Sobolev spaces (imbeddings, traces, compact imbeddings, fractional spaces).The third chapter contains existence and uniqueness theorems for problems, including the Fredholm alternative and systems of equations with variable coefficients. The next chapter describes regularity properties of weak solutions. Chapter 5 deals with applications of Rellich's inequality and Chapter 6 introduces the Sobolev spaces with weights. Finally the last chapter studies regularity of solutions and their dependence on coefficients and also on irregular domains.

Politics and the Theory of Language in the USSR :

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brandist, Craig / Chown, Katya, PUBLISHER: Anthem Press, 'Politics and the Theory of Language in the USSR ' provides ground-breaking research into the complex interrelations of linguistic theory and politics during the first two decades of the USSR. The work examines how the new Revolutionary regime promoted linguistic research that scrutinised the relationship between language, social structure, national identity and ideological factors as part of an attempt to democratize the public sphere. It also looks at the demise of the sociological paradigm, as the isolation and bureaucratization of the state gradually shifted the focus of research. Through this account, the collection formally acknowledges the achievements of the Soviet linguists of the time, whose innovative approaches to the relationship between language and society predates the emergence of western sociolinguistics by several decades. These articles are the first articles written in English about these linguists, and will introduce an Anglophone audience to a range of materials hitherto unavailable. In addition to providing new articles, the volume also presents the first annotated translation of Ivan Meshchaninov's 'Theses on Japhetidology', thereby providing insight into one of the most controversial strands within Soviet linguistic thought.
