Book Synopsis From Empire to Community by : Amitai Etzioni
Download or read book From Empire to Community written by Amitai Etzioni and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether one favors the U.S. global projection of force or is horrified by it, the question stands - where do we go from here? What ought to be the new global architecture? Amitai Etzioni follows a third way, drawing on both neoconservative and liberal ideas, in this bold new look at international relations. He argues that a "clash of civilizations" can be avoided and that the new world order need not look like America. Eastern values, including spirituality and moderate Islam, have a legitimate place in the evolving global public philosophy. Nation-states, Etzioni argues, can no longer attend to rising transnational problems, from SARS to trade in sex slaves to cybercrime. Global civil society does help, but without some kind of global authority, transnational problems will overwhelm us. The building blocks of this new order can be found in the war against terrorism, multilateral attempts at deproliferation, humanitarian interventions and new supranational institutions (e.g., the governance of the Internet). Basic safety, human rights, and global social issues, such as environmental protection, are best solved cooperatively, and Etzioni explores ways of creating global authorities robust enough to handle these issues as he outlines the journey from "empire to community."
Book Synopsis International Relations and Communitarianism by : Emily Pryor
Download or read book International Relations and Communitarianism written by Emily Pryor and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 2005-07-20 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communitarianism is an intriguing social theory that states community and the social bonds of family, traditional values, and education are the main building blocks of a new supranational global order. One of its strongest proponents, Amitai Etzioni, posits that the "transnational threats facing humankind today are so overwhelming that soon all nations will experience a convergence of values and priorities, which will lay the groundwork for eventual global governance. " The eight articles presented by the August 2005 issue of American Behavioral Scientist offer a fascinating and spirited dialogue regarding the concurrences and contradictions of communitarianism within the context of international relations. They tackle a range of topics first addressed in Etzioni's treatise From Empire to Community: A New Approach to International Relations, including: Evaluating the European Union as a test case for communitarianism (Goldgeier) How communitarianism predicts that U.S. hegemony will be transcended and how this fits in with the U.S.', particularly the Bush administration's, grand strategy (Hentz) Does Etizioni's nationalistic approach to U.S. foreign policy negate communitarianism's ethical problem-solving framework? (Falk) Communitarian Realism and the emergence of common norms through coping with global challenges (Gvosdev) The four fatal flaws of Communitarianism (Gray) Whether sustainable economic or political integration is possible without global social assimilation taking place (Müllerson) Etzioni's Response, including a quick summary of the communitarian paradigm (Etzioni) A call by Ambassador Max M. Kampelman to bolster international community through the elimination of all nuclear weapons, the establishment of a national voluntary Civilian Conservation Corps for 18-21 year olds, and the creation of a new education incentive along the lines of the Roosevelt G.I. Bill of Rights. This issue offers a balanced view of a much-disputed theory and belongs in the library of every political scientist , sociologist , and everyone interested in the state of the world around them.
Book Synopsis Ethics, Justice and International Relations by : Peter Sutch
Download or read book Ethics, Justice and International Relations written by Peter Sutch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This topical and timely book critically explores contemporary liberal international relations theory. In the fifty years since the declaration of human rights, the language of international relations has come to incorporate the language of justice and injustice. The book argues that if justice is to become the governing principle of international politics, then liberals must recognise that their political preferences cannot be the preconditions of global ethics. The hierarchy of international political ethics must be constructed afresh so that the first principles of justice are accessible to all agents as political and ethical equals. This book will be essential reading for students and scholars in politics, international relations, political theory and ethics.
Book Synopsis The Struggle Over Borders by : Pieter de Wilde
Download or read book The Struggle Over Borders written by Pieter de Wilde and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Citizens, parties, and movements are increasingly contesting issues connected to globalization, such as whether to welcome immigrants, promote free trade, and support international integration. The resulting political fault line, precipitated by a deepening rift between elites and mass publics, has created space for the rise of populism. Responding to these issues and debates, this book presents a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of how economic, cultural and political globalization have transformed democratic politics. This study offers a fresh perspective on the rise of populism based on analyses of public and elite opinion and party politics, as well as mass media debates on climate change, human rights, migration, regional integration, and trade in the USA, Germany, Poland, Turkey, and Mexico. Furthermore, it considers similar conflicts taking place within the European Union and the United Nations. Appealing to political scientists, sociologists and international relations scholars, this book is also an accessible introduction to these debates for undergraduate and masters students.
Book Synopsis Communitarian Foreign Policy by : Nikolas K. Gvosdev
Download or read book Communitarian Foreign Policy written by Nikolas K. Gvosdev and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume establishes Amitai Etzioni's communitarian approach to international relations as a distinct school of American foreign policy thought. Nikolas K. Gvosdev systematically evaluates Etzioni's ideas, tracing their origins during the Cold War and their relevance to current challenges in Asia and the Middle East, and considering their strengths and weaknesses.Etzioni agrees with liberal internationalists who believe that traditional notions of state sovereignty are eroding and that a new set of global norms is required. However, he argues against the imposition of Western policies on the rest of the world, which he sees as a recipe for conflict which the United States cannot afford. He warns against the post-Cold War triumphalism, arguing that it undercuts efforts to find necessary common ground with both Russia and China. An enduring and stable global architecture cannot be maintained unless it appeals to the interests of a broad community of nations. The trust that is needed for forming closer associations between nations and to have a productive dialogue on human rights can only come about through the voluntary coordination of states forced to combat an increasing array of transnational threats.

Book Synopsis Communitarian Politics in Asia by : Beng Huat Chua
Download or read book Communitarian Politics in Asia written by Beng Huat Chua and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-07-31 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the collapse of European socialism in the late 1980s, ascendancy of the liberal capitalist democracy and individual self-interest became prevalent in the West. In contrast, many polities in Asia, both by tradition and choice, have explicitly adopted communitarianism as a national ideology, for example Confucianism in Korea, Hong Kong and Japan, Islam in Malaysia and the Panca Sila in Indonesia. Here, communitarianism arguably informs public policies and political practices and the concept of the 'social' in terms of responsibilities and collective welfare is preserved. Communitarian Politics in Asia examines instances in southeast and east Asian countries where communitarianism is both articulated as national ideology and embedded as the ethos of social life and assesses the relative merits of a set of practices in their respective local political context. The book not only augments existing international debate on liberalism and communitarianism but also provides empirical examples of communitarian political practices that will substantiate and/or refute conceptual points, such as redistributive justice and costs to individuals, in this ongoing debate.

Book Synopsis Communitarianism and Individualism by : Shlomo Avineri
Download or read book Communitarianism and Individualism written by Shlomo Avineri and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 1992 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade much contemporary political and moral thought has been devoted to the debate between communitarianism and individualism. While individualists advocate the notions of rights, neutrality, and impartiality, and see society as a voluntary association for mutual advantage, communitarians argue that individuals are never detached from their society, culture, and history and that if they are to be properly understood they must first be examined in these contexts. Moreover communitarians claim that individualism makes it impossible to achieve a genuine community which can offer its members a just distribution of goods and morally meaningful life. The essays collected in this volume reflect the many facets of this debate and examine its implications for the political arena. They cover a wide spectrum of thought and opinion and include work by Ronald Dworkin, Marilyn Friedman, David Gauthier, Amy Gutmann, Will Kymlicka, Alasdair MacIntyre, David Miller, Robert Nozick, John Rawls, Michael Sandel, Charles Taylor, and Michael Walzer.
Book Synopsis Normative Issues in International Relations: Bridging the Communitarian/Cosmopolitan Divide by : Martin Smith
Download or read book Normative Issues in International Relations: Bridging the Communitarian/Cosmopolitan Divide written by Martin Smith and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At some point or another, every state pursues a foreign policy which it will try to explain or justify in moral terms. From simple censures and sanctions against states who behave not only in opposition to international law, but also against a more loosely defined international morality, to full scale military interventions for expressly "humanitarian" purposes, ideas of morality and human rights clearly exist in international relations. This does not mean that these ideas exist clearly. What are the origins of these rights? What is the moral standing of states? And when shall human rights be sacrificed to protect the autonomy of a state (or vice versa)? These questions are but a sampling of the normative issues with which the discipline of international relations was originally concerned and to which it is now focusing a renewed interest. This academic essay, written by the author at the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1998, addresses the core questions mentioned above by reviewing two major schools of thought in International Relations (Communitarianism and Cosmopolitanism) and by attempting to present an alternative approach by introducing the concept of "trickle up morality".
Book Synopsis The Evolution of Communitarian Ideas by : Henry Tam
Download or read book The Evolution of Communitarian Ideas written by Henry Tam and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-02 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with three key questions about communitarian ideas: how to distinguish what constitutes communitarian thinking; what lessons to take from the historical development of communitarian arguments; and why their practical implications are relevant in devising reforms at the local, national, and global levels. Each chapter covers a distinct period, with a critical exposition of the leading thinkers of that time who contributed to communitarian philosophy and politics. Beginning with an examination of the rise of proto-communitarian ideas in classical Western and Eastern thought, the book closes with a review of communitarian responses to the emergent social and technological changes in the 21st century. Readers will learn about the core features and significance of communitarian theories and practices in relation to morality, education, the economy, freedom and security, community development, and democratic governance; and how they compare and contrast with other ethical and intellectual outlooks.
