Описание: Often we hear about sovereignty as competitive, requiring protection from other states. Barkin argues that states are invested in sovereignty as a property exclusive to states, above any competition. Sovereignty is a collusion, a cartel, through which states maintain otherwise-unjustifiable exclusive property-related privileges.
Описание: An up-to-date examination of Mexico`s version of the "War on Drugs" that exposes the evolution of major cartels and their corruption of politicians, law-enforcement agencies, and the Army.
Описание: Drug wars have ravaged Latin America, from Pablo Escobar in Colombia and El Chapo in Mexico to the favelas of Rio de Janeiro. This book helps social scientists, area specialists, and policymakers understand why state crackdowns often backfire, and why deterrence-based approaches have been successful but hard to implement and sustain.
A Theory of Disfunctionality: The European Micro-states as Disfunctional States in the International System explains the continuing survival of European micro-states as members of the international system. Micro-states are small sovereign states with populations of 1 million or less, of which there are 10 in Europe. The existence of micro-states raises a number of questions about the nature of statehood, the recognition of sovereignty, and the ability of such states to maintain a presence in international politics. This book establishes the 'theory of disfunctionality' in which a functional account of statehood is proposed. It is argued that the state has six functions-but the micro-states are so small that they 'contract out' some state functions to others in the international system. By doing this, the micro-states ensure their continuing survival in international politics.
The book, which focuses on two case studies-Monaco and Luxembourg-, will be of particular interest to those involved in small state studies including scholars, students, practitioners and policy-makers, as well as those researching International Relations and state theory.
Описание: This book explores the history of the international order in the eighteenth and nineteenth century through a new study of Emer de Vattel`s Droit des gens (1758).
Описание: This book provides the first complete, literal English translation of Alexis de Tocqueville’s and Gustave de Beaumont’s first edition of On the Penitentiary System in the United States and Its Application to France. The work contains a critical comparison of two competing American penitentiary disciplines known as the Auburn and Philadelphia systems, an evaluation of whether American penitentiaries can successfully work in France, a detailed description of Houses of Refuge as the first juvenile detention centers, and an argument against penal colonization. The work provides valuable insights into understanding Tocqueville as a statesman, as well as a comparative look at civic engagement in early American and French penal reform movements. The Translator’s Introduction provides historical context for understanding Tocqueville’s work in French penal reform and the major themes of the report. The book thus fills a void in Tocquevillian studies and extrapolates the roots of American and French criminal justice systems in the nineteenth century.
