Описание: This book focuses on River Basin Organizations as the key institutions for managing internationally shared water resources. This includes a comparative analysis of all River Basin Organizations worldwide and three in-depth case studies from three different continents. The detailed case studies are the Senegal (West Africa), Mekong (South-east Asia) and Danube (Europe) rivers. The book contributes to the academic debate on how shared natural and environmental resources can be managed in a sustainable way and which institutional and legal mechanisms actually matter for doing so. It adopts the neo-institutionalist approach, according to which international environmental institutions do make a difference. The analysis not only confirms this argument for the specific case of shared water resources, but also refines existing hypotheses on the influence of different independent variables, namely the nature of the collective action problem, the constellation of actors and the institutional design of an international environmental institution. The work also contributes to the policy debate on how to better govern internationally shared natural resources and the environment. It provides policy makers with advice on which exogenous conditions to be aware of when managing water resources they share with co-riparians and which institutional design features and governance mechanisms to set up in order to increase effectiveness in management.

In Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, Cuba has assumed a geopolitical role of unlikely prominence.

Описание: Assessing the grand American evangelical missionary venture to convert the world, this international group of leading scholars reveals how theological imperatives have intersected with worldly imaginaries from the nineteenth century to the present. Countering the stubborn notion that conservative Protestant groups have steadfastly maintained their distance from governmental and economic affairs, these experts show how believers' ambitious investments in missionizing and humanitarianism have connected with worldly matters of empire, the Cold War, foreign policy, and neoliberalism. They show, too, how evangelicals' international activism redefined the content and the boundaries of the movement itself. As evangelical voices from Africa, Asia, and Latin America became more vocal and assertive, U.S. evangelicals took on more pluralistic, multidirectional identities not only abroad but also back home. Applying this international perspective to the history of American evangelicalism radically changes how we understand the development and influence of evangelicalism, and of globalizing religion more broadly.

Описание: International inspections are a common technique of international law. Inspectors visit prison camps, chemical factories, nuclear reactors, and research stations in Antarctica — to assess whether the provisions of international law are complied with. But notwithstanding this practical relevance, international lawyers have tended to neglect international inspections, at least as a general category: what studies exist, tend to focus on particular regimes, providing much detail but insufficient orientation. The present volume takes a different approach. It looks at a wide range of inspection regimes and seeks to identify cross-cutting issues. While reflecting their heterogeneity, its central aim is to situate international inspections in the wider field of international law’s means of control and to highlight elements of unity in diversity. Combining panoramic and kaleidoscopic perspectives, the volume’s sixteen chapters encourage international lawyers to engage more fully with international inspections.
Les inspections internationales sont une technique courante du droit international. Les inspecteurs visitent des lieux de detention, des usines chimiques, des reacteurs nucleaires et des stations de recherche en Antarctique, pour evaluer si les regles du droit international sont respectees. Malgre cet interet pratique, les juristes internationaux ont eu tendance a negliger les inspections internationales, du moins en tant que categorie generale : les etudes existantes tendent a se concentrer sur des regimes particuliers, fournissant beaucoup de details mais sans reelle approche globale. Le present ouvrage adopte une demarche differente. Il examine un large eventail de regimes d'inspection et cherche a en degager les elements transversaux. Tout en refletant l’heterogeneite des inspections, ce volume a pour principal objectif de situer les inspections internationales dans le champ plus large des moyens de controle du droit international et de mettre en evidence leur unite au-dela de leur diversite. Combinant des perspectives panoramiques et kaleidoscopiques, les seize chapitres du volume encouragent les juristes internationaux a s'engager encore dans l’etude des inspections internationales.
