Book The Limits to Capitalist Nature

Download or read book The Limits to Capitalist Nature written by Ulrich Brand and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides for a historical-materialist understanding of the multiple crises of capitalism, focusing on the ecological crisis and its interaction with other crisis phenomena (financial crisis, crisis of democracy, economic crisis). Drawing on political ecology, Gramscian theory of hegemony, critical state theory and the regulation approach, it introduces the concept of an imperial mode of living in order to better understand the everyday practices and perceptions as well as the social relations of forces and institutional constellations that facilitate environmentally destructive patterns of production and consumption. Furthermore, it develops a historical-materialist critique of the green economy concept that has been propagated in recent years as a solution not only for the ecological but also for the economic crisis. Finally, the book proposes a democratisation of societal nature relations as a way out of the crisis that requires overcoming capitalist property relations and the exclusive forms of controlling nature guaranteed by them.

Book Norm Dynamics in Multilateral Arms Control

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Efforts to create or maintain rules to contain the risks stemming from an unrestrained multilateral arms race are at the core of a world order based on consensual norms rather than on a pure balance of power. Whereas security cooperation is conventionally considered to be motivated primarily by interest- and security-based factors, studies have shown that all actors use moral arguments and are deeply embedded in the normative patterns surrounding their realm of action. Norm Dynamics in Multilateral ArmsControl, based on research conducted by a large PRIF team led by Harald M

  • ISBN : 1108493114
  • Pages : 423 pages

Download or read book The Law of Political Economy written by Poul F. Kjaer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Political economy themes have - directly and indirectly - been a central concern of law and legal scholarship ever since political economy emerged as a concept in the early seventeenth century, a development which was re-inforced by the emergence of political economy as an independent area of scholarly enquiry in the eighteenth century, as developed by the French physiocrats. This is not surprising in so far as the core institutions of the economy and economic exchanges, such as property and contract, are legal institutions.In spite of this intrinsic link, political economy discourses and legal discourses dealing with political economy themes unfold in a largely separate manner. Indeed, this book is also a reflection of this, in so far as its core concern is how the law and legal scholarship conceive of and approach political economy issues"--

Book Clean Energy and Fuel  Hydrogen  Storage

Download or read book Clean Energy and Fuel Hydrogen Storage written by Sesha S. Srinivasan and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clean energy and fuel storage are often required for both stationary and automotive applications. Some of these clean energy and fuel storage technologies currently under extensive research and development include hydrogen storage, direct electric storage, mechanical energy storage, solar–thermal energy storage, electrochemical (batteries and supercapacitors), and thermochemical storage. The gravimetric and volumetric storage capacity, energy storage density, power output, operating temperature and pressure, cycle life, recyclability, and cost of clean energy or fuel storage are some of the factors that govern efficient energy and fuel storage technologies for potential deployment in energy harvesting (solar and wind farms) stations and onboard vehicular transportation. This Special Issue thus serves the need for promoting exploratory research and development on clean energy and fuel storage technologies while addressing their challenges to practical and sustainable infrastructures.

Book Historical Institutionalism and International Relations

Download or read book Historical Institutionalism and International Relations written by Michael Zürn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies the analytical approach called Historical Institutionalism (HI)- so far mostly used within comparative politics-to the field of International Relations (IR). It provides an introduction to HI concepts and makes an argument for why it is particularly well-suited for understanding current developments within international institutions. In particular, it helps us to understand the combination of change and stability that together form the dynamics of institutional development over time. It is the first book to collect original, empirical research applying historical institutionalism to international institutions. The chapters cover a range of institutions important to IR, including the development of European Union competition policy, the global politics of financial reform after the 2008 crisis, the institutional development of the World Health Organization, membership reforms in the League of Nations and the United Nations Security Council, and civil society access to intergovernmental organizations. The concluding chapter discusses the relationship of HI to other institutionalist approaches and the role of HI in future IR research.

Download or read book ASEAN and the EC written by Rolf J. Langhammer and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 1988 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If all countries follow a strategy of food self-sufficiency on the one hand an of exporting their surpluses on the other, conflicts will be inevitable. This volume contains five studies of scholars from ASEAN and Europe that address various aspects of trade in tropical agricultural products between ASEAN and the European Community (EC). A comprehensive background picture of the agricultural sector in the ASEAN economies is given, and the EC strategy of giving preferences to the so-called Lome countries of Subsaharan Africa, the Carribean, and the Pacific is described. The negative aspects of the Common Agricultural Policy of the EC are analysed in a simulation model, and in a further contribution the specific impact of the Lome Conventions on the ASEAN countries is studied.

Book Justice and Peace

Download or read book Justice and Peace written by Caroline Fehl and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the justice concerns of political actors in important international regimes and international and domestic conflicts and traces their effects on peace and conflict. The book demonstrates that such justice concerns play an ambivalent role for the resolution of conflicts and maintenance of order. While arrangements that actors perceive as just will provide a good basis for peaceful relations, the pursuit of justice can create conflicts or make existing ones more difficult to resolve.
