English | 2009 | pages: 276 | ISBN: 0844743100 | PDF | 0,8 mb
Traditional notions of citizenship are linked to the idea of the democratic nation-state, a sovereign entity capable of defending itself against foreign and domestic enemies. But these notions have become increasingly problematic as the very concept of the nation-state is challenged, not only by ethnic and religious conflicts, but also by increased global mobility and the political integration of nation-states into international organizations-most prominently, the European Union. Will the concept of citizenship as we know it survive the decline of the nation-state?

Surveying the causes of the Arab Spring, and revealing the governing trends arising from it, this book examines various international relation theories through the lens of the experiences of the countries in the Middle East and North Africa region. It takes the events of the Arab Spring as an outcome of globalization’s double movement whose integrative cultural, political and security frameworks devastated nationally controlled economies, undermining the nation-state system and propagating a decentralized and communitarian-based governance structure. The consequences for many plural, diverse societies were two-fold: autocratic nationalism was discarded while decentralized regimes representing communitarian-based politics came to the fore. The author reveals how the formulation of a new communitocratic order rests on the accommodation of this newly emerging communitarianism and explores the major drivers of political transformation, describing the emerging communities, forecasting their governing options and the possible repercussions for the post-Arab Spring states.

Democracy promises rule by all, not by the few. Yet, electoral democracies limit decision-making to representatives and have always had a weakness for inequality. How might democracy serve all rather than the few?

Free Download Chih-Yu Shih, "On China by India: From Civilization to Nation-State"
English | ISBN: 1604978066 | 2012 | 666 pages | PDF | 3 MB
"This highly original book shifts our attention away from the preoccupations of the U.S. to India and from conventional social science and area studies perspectives to civilizational sensibilities. In a series of searching essays by well-informed Indian scholars, China’s rise appears in a fresh light. Rather than seeking to bend China’s experience only to the impatient expectations of secular liberalism, this important book reminds us of the imagined affinities that a civilizational understanding of self and other creates in India for China and the empathetic patience it engenders. Our understanding of China is greatly enriched by new insights that this broader vision yields." – Peter J. Katzenstein, Walter S. Carpenter, Jr. Professor of International Studies, Cornell University

Free Download Ragnar Björk, "Territory, State and Nation: The Geopolitics of Rudolf Kjellén "
English | ISBN: 1800730721 | 2021 | 320 pages | PDF | 5 MB
Rudolf Kjellén, regularly referred to as "the father of geopolitics," developed in the first decade of the twentieth century an analytical model for calculating the capabilities of great-power states and promoting their interests in the international arena. It was an ambitious intellectual project that sought to bring politics into the sphere of social science. Bringing together experts on Kjellén from across the disciplines, Territory, State and Nation explores the century-long international impact, analytical model, and historical theories of a figure immensely influential in his time who is curiously little-known today.

Introducing a new way of thinking about health: public health experts Tom Farley and Deborah A.

With Brexit looming, a major issue facing UK Higher Education is whether the UK will be able to stay in the Erasmus Programme. This book sits at the intersection of three main interrelated themes – EU citizenship, the current state of the university in Europe, and student mobility – as they play out in the context of an EU funded programme established not least to promote European identity, European consciousness and European citizenship.
