Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of national security decisionmaking is fraught with pitfalls. This statement holds true for any researcher, but all the more so for someone like this author, who has been actively engaged for many years in national security decisionmaking, at times at the highest levels. From the outset, I have been aware of the dangers of subjectivism, of injecting my own political attitudes and opinions, preconceived notions and biases into the material, the analyses and especially the conclusions and recommendations. I have endeavored, to the best of my ability, to undertake this research with the "disinterested curiosity" and objective neutrality which should be the hallmark of a good scientist and researcher. But no one can be totally disinterested in a process which has a direct bearing on his life and well-being; thus the only guarantee of the objectivity of such a work is the constant recognition and awareness of the danger of going astray, the advice and criticism of one's colleagues and, in the final analysis, one's own conscience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This provocative historical reassessment sheds new light on the decisions of British politicians that led to the creation of Israel. Separating myth and propaganda from historical fact, Carly Beckerman explores how elite political battles in London inadvertently laid the foundations for the establishment of the State of Israel. Drawing on foreign policy analysis and previously unexamined archival sources, Unexpected State examines the strategic interests, international diplomacy, and political maneuvering in Westminster that determined the future of Palestine. Contrary to established literature, Beckerman shows how British policy toward the territory was dominated by domestic and international political battles that had little to do with Zionist or Palestinian interests. Instead, the policy process was aimed at resolving issues such as coalition feuds, party leadership battles, spending cuts, and riots in India. Considering detailed analysis of four major policy-making episodes between 1920 and 1948, Unexpected State interrogates key Israeli and Palestinian narratives and provides fresh insight into the motives and decisions behind policies that would have global implications for decades to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 50 years marine conservation has grown from almost nothing to become a major topic of global activity involving many people and organisations. Marine conservation activities have been applied to a huge diversity of species, habitats, ecosystems and whole seas. Many marine conservation actions have focused on human impacts on the marine environment from development and pollution to the impacts of fisheries. Whilst science has provided the backbone of thinking on marine conservation, perhaps the biggest change over this period has been the use of an ever-increasing range of techniques and disciplines to further marine conservation ends. Bob Earll explores what marine conservation involves in practice by providing a synthesis of the main developments from the viewpoints of 19 leading practitioners and pioneers who have helped shape its progress and successes. Their narratives highlight the diversity and richness of activity, and the realities of delivering marine conservation in practice with reference to a host of projects and case studies. Many of these narratives demonstrate how innovative conservationists have been – often developing novel approaches to problems where little information and no frameworks exist. The case studies described are based on a wide range of European and international projects. This book takes an in-depth look at the reality of delivering marine conservation in practice, where achieving change is often a complicated process, with barriers to overcome that have nothing to do with science. Marine conservationists will often be working with stakeholders for whom marine conservation is not a priority. This book aims to help readers describe and understand those realities, and shows that successful and inspirational projects can be delivered against the odds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential ease with which transnational corporations can relocate their activities gives them great leverage over individual governments. The authors outline the various policies that the world's major economies have adopted to cope with the unique issues created by transnationals. They reveal that there has been a marked contrast in the level of concern about transnationals' activities across the countries studied, and that this has resulted in significantly different approaches towards transnationals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aspects of British Policy and the Treaty of Versailles looks at some key issues involving British policy and the Treaty of Versailles, one of the twentieth century’s most controversial international agreements. The book discusses the role of experts and the Danzig Question at the Paris Peace Conference; the establishment of diplomatic history as a field of academic research; and the role of David Lloyd George and his Vision of Post-War Europe. Contributors also look at the restitution of cultural objects in German possession, and after the war, the Treaty’s impact on both Britain’s enemy, Germany, and its ally, France, revealing how it profoundly affected the European balance of power. Aspects of British Policy and the Treaty of Versailles will be of great interest to scholars of diplomatic history as well as modern history and international relations more generally. The chapters were originally published as a special issue of Diplomacy & Statecraft.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Risk Studies written by Adam Burgess and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is over 40 years since we began to reflect upon risk in a more social than technological and economic fashion, firstly making sense of the gap between expert and public assessment of risks, such as to our health and environment. With fixed certainties of the past eroded and the technological leaps of ‘big data’, ours is truly an age of risk, uncertainty and probability - from Google’s algorithms to the daily management of personal lifestyle risks. Academic reflection and research has kept pace with these dizzying developments but remains an intellectually fragmented field, shaped by professional imperatives and disciplinary boundaries, from risk analysis to regulation and social research. This is the first attempt to draw together and define risk studies, through a definitive collection written by the leading scholars in the field. It will be an indispensable resource for the many scholars, students and professionals engaging with risk but lacking a resource to draw it all together.

Download or read book HL 55 - A fracturing Union? The implications of Financial Devolution to Scotland written by The Stationery Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2015 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Committee's investigation into the devolution of public finances, Lord Palmerston's assessment of the Schleswig-Holstein question has often sprung to mind. Funding of devolved administrations, particularly with regards to Scotland, is a complex mix of social, economic and political questions; "You would not start from here", has been the lament of many of our witnesses. This inquiry was prompted by the Smith Commission agreement. The Scottish cross-party Smith Commission was established by the Prime Minister, following the September 2014 referendum on Scottish independence, to agree further powers which should be devolved to Scotland. The Committee was particularly interested in the proposals that seek to increase the financial accountability of the Scottish Parliament. The Smith Commission agreement will be delivered through the Scotland Bill 2015 and the renegotiation of the 'fiscal framework' by the UK and Scottish Governments. The fiscal framework sets out how Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland receive funding from the UK Government and the institutional arrangements that govern the process. The renegotiation of the fiscal framework may also have implications for future funding arrangements for Wales and Northern Ireland. Negotiations on the fiscal framework have yet to be concluded. This report draws attention to certain problems we have identified that the UK Government and devolved administrations need to address: (1) The Absence of the Fiscal Framework; (2) Funding of Devolved Administrations in the UK; (3) Adjustment of the block grant for Scotland to reflect devolved income tax receipts; (4) the second 'no detriment' principle; (5) choice of devolved taxes; (6) borrowing powers; (7) transparency and scrutiny.

This book was released on 2009-07-17 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Barnett Formula is the mechanism used by the United Kingdom Government to allocate more than half of total public expenditure in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The Formula has been used for the last thirty years to determine the annual increase in allocation (the increment). Each year these increments are added on to the previous year's allocation (the baseline) to create what is now a significant block grant of funds. The Formula accounted for almost £49 billion of public spending in 2007-08. Despite the political changes within the United Kingdom the Formula has continued to be used and has never been reviewed or revised. The Formula was only intended to be a short term measure and should no longer be. A UK Funding Commission should be established to assess relative need in the UK's regions and advise on a new method of distributing funding to reflect those needs. The baseline has never been reviewed to take account of changing population patterns; this means that the grant provides funds without reference to the needs of each of the countries and regions of the UK. There should be a link between the grant of funds made to each of the administrations and their actual per capita funding needs. The Committee's research suggests that England and Scotland have markedly lower overall needs per head of population than Wales and Northern Ireland. The Committee suggest that the UK Funding Commission undertake an assessment of relative need now and in the future and that they undertake periodic reviews as well as publish annual data about the allocation of funding between the devolved administrations.
