Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Culture shock on a newly discovered hostile planet is inevitable, even if you aren't the only inhabitants... On an extremely hot, desert planet, a race of monstrous lizards have developed a complex civilization. When an Earth colony's emergency landing becomes permanent, the colonists baptize the new planet Mars IIand begin to create their own civilization. After several encounters, both lizards and humans demonstrate a willingness to understand each other. But all too quickly, their relationships deteriorate beyond remedy... despite the best intentions of individuals from both sides. Everything on the colonized planet is hostile to humans: the heat, rarity of edible food and scarcity of water. Struggling to survive on their own, a confrontation with the planets natural inhabitants seems inevitable. Culture shock has sunk in - violence and horror reign and not even the most devoted pacifists can prevent the worst from happening.

Book Feminist Perspectives on Canadian Foreign Policy

Download or read book Feminist Perspectives on Canadian Foreign Policy written by Claire Turenne Sjolander and published by Oxford University Press Canada. This book was released on 2003 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines all the fundamental aspects of Canadian foreign policy from a feminist point of view. The contributions seek to deconstruct the gendered nature of discourse on and about Canadian foreign policy. The goal of the collection is, first, to deconstruct the dominant concepts of the discourse surrounding Canadian foreign policy as articulated by key government officials and agencies. The second goal is to consider the practices of foreign policies, that is, to ask how the discourse becomes, creates, ignores, silences, and limits particular policy practices and ways of thinking and doing.

Book Strategic Studies and World Order

Download or read book Strategic Studies and World Order written by Bradley S. Klein and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-05-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 book Bradley Klein draws upon debates in international relations theory to raise important questions about the nature of strategic studies. He argues that post-modern critiques of realism and neorealism open up opportunities for new ways of thinking about nuclear deterrence. In clear and uncluttered language, he explores the links between modernity, state-building and strategic violence, and argues that American foreign policy, and NATO, undertook a set of dynamic political practices intended to make and remake world order in the image of Western identity. Klein warns against too facile a celebration of the end of the Cold War, concluding that it is even more imperative today to appreciate the scope and power of the Western strategic project. The book will be of interest to students of international relations theory, strategic studies, peace studies, and US foreign policy.

Book Exiguity

Download or read book Exiguity written by François Paré and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past four centuries, five major languages have dominated Western literature. This domination has excluded or rendered marginal all other literatures — has, in effect, diminished literary diversity and endangered the existence of the literature of “smaller” cultures. In an illuminating defence for their preservation, François Paré reflects on the diversity of cultures and languages in the world and on the fantastic richness of “smaller” literatures. He offers us memorable samples of this diversity and, in his original and thought-provoking style, tantalizes us with critical musings on the complexity of “marginal” literature and the regenerative power it can offer. Exiguity: Reflections on the Margins of Literature reflects Paré’s deep involvement with the development and preservation of minority cultures in Canada.

Book On Security

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ronnie D. Lipschutz
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 1995
  • ISBN : 9780231102711
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book On Security written by Ronnie D. Lipschutz and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of global security has taken on new meaning in the post-Cold War world, compelling analysts of international relations to reassess the military, political, and cultural issues that intersect with the notion of security. On Security represents a wide range of views on shifting concepts of security at the turn of the millennium, when the tangible, bipolar arrangement of the Cold War-era world system no longer exists." "Unlike much work in the field, the essays in this volume do not take the state for granted as the referent object of security. Contributors probe deeper, asking what it really is that we imagine needs securing: the international system? the nation-state? culture? On Security inquires further into what constitutes security: protection against enemies? suppression of a particular ethnic or religious group? insulation against economic competitors? And finally, contributors look into how ideas about security enter the realm of public debate and become institutionalized in organizations and policies: are they based on tangible, objective threats, or do they arise from psychological and emotional attitudes about feared enemies?" "Ranging in perspective from neorealist to postmodernist to constructivist, the essays in On Security attempt to find answers and to come to grips with some of the dilemmas confronting the idea of security today. The contributors to On Security - Barry Buzan, Beverly Crawford, James Der Derian, Daniel Deudney, Pearl-Alice Marsh, Ole Wever, and Ronnie D. Lipschutz - offer a thought-provoking overview of the ongoing debate about the nature of political reality and international relations.

Book Canada s Foreign and Security Policy

Download or read book Canada s Foreign and Security Policy written by David Bosold and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compilation of brand-new research and writing from leading Canadian and European experts on Canadian foreign policy, Canada's Foreign and Security Policy re-examines Canada's political place and international influence in the contemporary world. As half of the contributors are non-Canadians, this 'outside-in' character of the book offers a unique perspective on internal versus external role perception, recognizing the disparity between Canada's national self-image and interpretations from outside the country's boundaries. Organized into three parts, the book begins with a conceptual analysis of Canada's label and position as a middle power, then moves on to assess the soft and hard dimensions of Canada's foreign and security policy within this framework. Individual chapters are policy-relevant and cover a range of topics of interest to Canadian foreign policy students and scholars alike, including human security, development policy, environmental and energy policies, the role of the Canadian forces, terrorism, NATO involvement, and Arctic sovereignty. Within these chapters, key debates meet new scholarship as authors examine the interrelationships within and among policy areas, and also call into question the 'sedimented truths' of Canadian foreign and security policy.
