This book was released on 2009 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventeenth and eighteenth century Europe was a cauldron of wars and upheavals. However, in the midst of this turmoil, some of the more imaginative and gifted Europeans were able to think outside the box, on how to establish a lasting peace in Europe. One of these enlightened Europeans was Charles Irenée Castel de Saint-Pierre, better known as the Abbé de Saint-Pierre. Throughout his life, Saint-Pierre wrote several volumes on a wide range of subjects. However, the one closest to his heart and which he promoted with the greatest vigour, was the 1713 Project for Perpetual Peace, known as the Projet, and its abridged version, the Abrégé, which was published for the first time in 1729. In these works, Saint-Pierre proposes the signing of a treaty binding all the nations of Europe in a Grand Alliance and the establishment of a European Assembly in a City of Peace. He also proposed the setting up of a European army to guard the Continent's frontiers. The Abbé de Saint-Pierre also wrote on how to eradicate Berber piracy in the Mediterranean once and for all. A translation of this unpublished project, in which Malta plays the principal role, is also included in this publication as an Annex. The Abbé admitted that he owed the ideas expressed in it to his brother, François-Antoine de Castel de Saint-Pierre, who commanded the galleys of the Order of St. John from 1705 to 1708. The style in which this Project is written reflects that which the Abbé de Saint-Pierre used in writing the others, not least amongst them the Abrégé itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rights and Civilizations, translated from the Italian original, traces a history of international law to illustrate the origins of the Western colonial project and its attempts to civilize the non-European world. The book, ranging from the sixteenth century to the twenty-first, explains how the West sought to justify its own colonial conquests through an ideology that revolved around the idea of its own assumed superiority, variously attributed to Christian peoples (in the early modern age), Western 'civil' peoples (in the nineteenth century), and 'developed' peoples (at the beginning of the twentieth century), and now to democratic Western peoples. In outlining this history and discourse, the book shows that, while the Western conception may style itself as universal, it is in fact relative. This comes out by bringing the Western civilization into comparison with others, mainly the Islamic one, suggesting the need for an 'intercivilizational' approach to international law.

Download or read book Trust in Early Modern International Political Thought 1598 1713 written by Peter Schröder and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can there ever be trust between states? This study explores the concept of trust across different and sometimes antagonistic genres of international political thought during the seventeenth century. The natural law and reason of state traditions worked on different assumptions, but they mutually influenced each other. How have these traditions influenced the different concepts and discussions of trust-building? Bringing together international political thought and international law, Schröder analyses to what extent trust can be seen as one of the foundational concepts in the theorising of interstate relations in this decisive period. Despite the ongoing search for conditions of trust between states, we are still faced with the same structural problems. This study is therefore of interest not only to specialists and students of the early modern period, but also to everyone thinking about ways of overcoming conflicts which are aggravated by a lack of mutual trust.

The attempt to outlaw war as a means of national policy and to establish a system of collective security after both World Wars resulted in the creation of the United Nations Charter, which remains a principal point of reference for the law on the use of force to this day. There have, however, been considerable challenges to the law on the prohibition ofThe prohibition of the use of force in international law is one of the major achievements of international law in the past century. The attempt to outlaw war as a means of national policy and to establish a system of collective security after both World Wars resulted in the creation of the United Nations Charter, which remains a principal point of reference for the law on the use of force to this day. There have, however, been considerable challenges to the law on the prohibition of the use of force over the past two decades. This Oxford Handbook is a comprehensive and authoritative study of the modern law on the use of force. Over seventy experts in the field offer a detailed analysis, and to an extent a restatement, of the law in this area. The Handbook reviews the status of the law on the use of force, and assesses what changes, if any, have occurred in consequence to recent developments. It offers cutting-edge and up-to-date scholarship on all major aspects of the prohibition of the use of force. The work is set in context by an extensive introductory section, reviewing the history of the subject, recent challenges, and addressing major conceptual approaches. Its second part addresses collective security, in particular the law and practice of the United Nations organs, and of regional organizations and arrangements. It then considers the substance of the prohibition of the use of force, and of the right to self-defence and associated doctrines. The next section is devoted to armed action undertaken on behalf of peoples and populations. This includes self-determination conflicts, resistance to armed occupation, and forcible humanitarian and pro-democratic action. The possibility of the revival of classical, expansive justifications for the use of force is then addressed. This is matched by a final section considering new security challenges and the emerging law in relation to them. Finally, the key arguments developed in the book are tied together in a substantive conclusion. The Handbook will be essential reading for scholars and students of international law and the use of force, and legal advisers to both government and NGOs.
