Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student-friendly and professor-endorsed, Dynamics of International Relations is an innovative, introductory level core text. It compares realist and idealist theories and the paradigm of interdependence against case studies of recurrent problems--why wage war, how to make peace, how to transcend conflict, when and where to mediate, how to increase GDP but also quality of life, and how to organize for peace and promote human rights. Against a backdrop of the threat of terrorism, Clemens clearly demonstrates both the danger and opportunities inherent in a growing global interdependence.

Book Synopsis Dynamics of International Relations by : Mehdi Heravi
Download or read book Dynamics of International Relations written by Mehdi Heravi and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International relations is a broad and ever-expanding field, covering all sorts of social practices that cross borders. This discussion will provide an in-depth introduction to a number of topics. To begin, though, it is important to lay out the major analytical approaches that have come to define the discipline of international relations. One of the earliest lessons within the discipline was that the way one looks at things, the theoretical lens one employs to analyse phenomena, determines much of what one sees. The world is a complex place, and it is impossible to understand and discuss it is in its totality -- any analysis necessarily requires some sort of simplification and abstraction to make sense of things. Theories are one way to do this, each privileging certain things.
Book Synopsis Dynamics of International Relations (Classic Reprint) by : Ernst B. Haas
Download or read book Dynamics of International Relations (Classic Reprint) written by Ernst B. Haas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dynamics of International Relations The methodological challenge of this approach has been severe. Empirical material is frequently unavailable or inaccessible, especially in the case of underdeveloped countries and totalitarian regimes. Some of the generaliza tions in Part I, therefore, are closer to the abstract model type of treat ment than to detailed empirical formulation. Chapter 4 is especially open to the charge of being an overly abstract statement of processes for which there is no unambiguous empirical support. If our formulation errs, there fore, we hope that the effort will act as a stimulus to further and more pre cise investigation. We make no claim to any unique value or to finality in offering this type of analysis. Rather, we feel that it will throw light upon certain important aspects of social relations across national boundaries which tend to be neglected in contemporary discussions. Certainly, this frame of reference for the study of international relations is not the only possible one, nor is it necessarily the best. We feel that it is helpful for an understanding of behavior and therefore as a guide to what is possible in terms of changes in patterns of national conduct. In political science, as in all the social sciences, all methodology is partial and incomplete. As a major caveat to the reader, we must point out that this approach is not designed to yield a normative appreciation of inter national relations. We have tried to examine how things are, not how they should be. We have excluded value judgments as rigorously as the limited validity of the concept of ethical neutrality permits. In its mechanics, this book differs from other texts in the field in the minimization of historical material. Such materials have been selected largely from the period since 1914, with particular emphasis upon events since 1945. The decision to utilize more recent illustrative examples rather than earlier ones stems from our conviction that the contemporary undergraduate is far better informed on recent history. Therefore our examples will carry more meaning in terms of his memory and experiences and obviate the necessity for a complete statement of the historical setting. No attempt is made to present a systematic historical review of international relations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Social Emergence in International Relations by : Maren Wagner
Download or read book Social Emergence in International Relations written by Maren Wagner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a conceptualization of social emergence in international relations as a novel angle to analyse institutional dynamics in East Asia, introducing the concept of emergence from a critical realist perspective. The author examines East Asia’s characteristic mesh work of regional institutions that affect integrative processes and regional policies, exploring how such institutions emerge and acquire their own nature and why this pattern persists over time, an unresolved and contested subject in the field of International Relations. This book suggests that regional institutions are emergent entities of the international system that arise as forms of self-organization by states to achieve certain emergent properties and powers. The author’s approach sheds light on the particular emergent properties and powers of regional institutions and identifies discourse as a key mechanism of social emergence. Besides engaging in relevant questions of the philosophy of science and its methodological implications for studying social emergence in world politics, the book also analyses the concrete case of two East Asian regional institutions: ASEAN Plus Three and the East Asia Summit. This book will engage scholars and postgraduate students of Asian Studies and International Relations.

Book Synopsis Complexity Science and World Affairs by : Walter C. Clemens Jr.
Download or read book Complexity Science and World Affairs written by Walter C. Clemens Jr. and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applies complexity science to the study of international politics. Why did some countries transition peacefully from communist rule to political freedom and market economies, while others did not? Why did the United States enjoy a brief moment as the sole remaining superpower, and then lose power and influence across the board? What are the prospects for China, the main challenger to American hegemony? In Complexity Science and World Affairs, Walter C. Clemens Jr. demonstrates how the basic concepts of complexity science can broaden and deepen the insights gained by other approaches to the study of world affairs. He argues that societal fitnessthe ability of a social system to cope with complex challenges and opportunitieshinges heavily on the values and way of life of each society, and serves to explain why some societies gain and others lose. Applying theory to several rich case studies, including political developments across postSoviet Eurasia and the United States, Clemens shows that complexity science offers a powerful set of tools for advancing the study of international relations, comparative government, and, more broadly, the social sciences. Clemens has written an outstanding bookthe culmination of a half?centurys experience in and analysis of world affairs [It is] bound to interest not only political and other social scientists but all thoughtful persons concerned with understanding and perhaps improving the human condition. from the Foreword by Stuart A. Kauffman This breakthrough book provides a new, promising general paradigm exploring and explaining the complexity of world politics. For scholars and analysts pushing the boundaries of our field, this is a must-read volume. Jacek Kugler, Claremont Graduate University Complexity can be overwhelming and complexity science can be daunting, and, yet, in Walter Clemenss skilled hands both become accessible, understandable, and useful tools for both scholars and practitioners. Once again, Clemens has shown that sophisticated academic theorizing only benefits from clarity, elegance, and wit. The book is ideal for graduate and undergraduate students as a supplementary text in international relations or comparative politics. Alexander Motyl, Rutgers UniversityNewark Clemens offers a fresh, even startling, paradigm and process for analyzing the seemingly unpredictable relations within and among human societies. With impressive clarity he proposes that the capacity to cope with complexity has become a key determinant of success in our intricately interrelated world. Careful study of this capacity in specific contexts can lead to revealing analyses in comparative politics and international relations. A provocative and stimulating treatise! S. Frederick Starr, Johns Hopkins University Walt Clemenss provocative new book can be appreciated at several levels: as an analytical framework in international relationscomplexity sciencethat offers a compelling alternative to realism and neoliberalism; as an incisive critique of the fitness of the supposedly most developed societies to deal with our complex world; and as a humanistic value-set that provides better standards for assessing governments than do GDP, trade levels, or military spending. Clemens skillfully integrates theory and practice to explore US hyperpower, the two Koreas, China, and other states from new angles, and with consistent objectivity. IR specialists should find this book exciting, while IR and international studies students will be challenged by the new paradigm it presents. Mel Gurtov, Portland State University Clemens proposes a powerful new way of looking at international relations and politics, and offers a productive method for assessing the fitness of societies in the early twenty-first century. Guntis midchens, University of Washington, Seattle You dont have to be a political scientist to wonder why some states succeed and others do not, why some societies flourish while others suffer stagnation and conflict. Employing the relatively new tool of complexity science, Walter Clemens evaluates the fitness of states and societies, i.e. their ability to cope with complex challenges and opportunities. He does so in a way that is eruditehow many studies quote Walt Whitman and Karl Marx in the same chapter?yet clear and accessible. Clemens challenges both existing political science paradigms and policy perspectives. This is a stimulating, rich volume that can be read and re-read with profit and appreciation for its breadth and depth and most of all for its insistence that we see the world, and the states in it, in all their complexity.

Book Synopsis Dynamics Among Nations by : Hilton L. Root
Download or read book Dynamics Among Nations written by Hilton L. Root and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An innovative view of the changing geopolitical landscape that draws on the science of complex adaptive systems to understand changes in global interaction. Liberal internationalism has been the West's foreign policy agenda since the Cold War, and the West has long occupied the top rung of a hierarchical system. In this book, Hilton Root argues that international relations, like other complex ecosystems, exists in a constantly shifting landscape, in which hierarchical structures are giving way to systems of networked interdependence, changing every facet of global interaction. Accordingly, policymakers will need a new way to understand the process of change. Root suggests that the science of complex systems offers an analytical framework to explain the unforeseen development failures, governance trends, and alliance shifts in today's global political economy. Root examines both the networked systems that make up modern states and the larger, interdependent landscapes they share. Using systems analysis—in which institutional change and economic development are understood as self-organizing complexities—he offers an alternative view of institutional resilience and persistence. From this perspective, Root considers the divergence of East and West; the emergence of the European state, its contrast with the rise of China, and the network properties of their respective innovation systems; the trajectory of democracy in developing regions; and the systemic impact of China on the liberal world order. Complexity science, Root argues, will not explain historical change processes with algorithmic precision, but it may offer explanations that match the messy richness of those processes.
Book Synopsis The Politics of Climate Change by : Paul G. Harris
Download or read book The Politics of Climate Change written by Paul G. Harris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is now a mainstream part of the international political agenda. It has become clear that it is not solely a technical issue, to be resolved by scientists, but a political issue with political implications at all levels of global governance. Indeed, some may argue that few long-term problems in international affairs are more important than this one. The purpose of this book is to reveal and apply some of the latest thinking on the implications of climate change for international affairs, and to explore how various proposals for tackling climate change will affect interstate relations in coming years. Chapters by scholars of international relations, international political economy and international law contribute to current discussions of climate change, doing so in way that is accessible to students, stakeholders, government officials and informed laypersons. Some questions considered in the book include the following: How has the discussion of climate change affected interstate relations? How does this problem, and how do environmental issues more generally, challenge international relations theory? How do international climate politics influence domestic politics, and vice-versa? How would climate change or action taken to tackle it affect the balance of power or balance of influence? Is climate change a matter of international security or international justice—or both—and how does the answer to this question affect policy responses of governments? Which states are likely to benefit or suffer from the various proposals to address climate change? What are the legal, ethical and political implications of the uneven distribution of the impacts of climate change? This book was previously published as a special issue of the Cambridge Review of International Affairs.
