Download or read book Dawn of a New Order written by Rein Mullerson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most significant development in global politics following the end of the bi-polar Cold War era has been the rise of a multi-polar state system. This has led to the emergence of major potential super-powers, global rivalry, international terrorism and the gradual weakening of the one remaining hegemonic, uni-polar state after the Cold War - the US. The idealistic hopes following the collapse of communism have evaporated and Cold War competition between liberal capitalism and communism has been replaced by multi-polar global rivalry that can only be resolved by a balance of power buttressed by international law. In this ambitious and thought-provoking book, Professor Rein Mullerson outlines the challenges associated with the new geopolitics of the twenty-first century. Based on in-depth research over several decades it is an essential tool for understanding the new world order and the ensuing crises in global politics.

Download or read book The Dawn of Eurasia written by Bruno Maçães and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this original and timely book, Bruno Maçães argues that the best word for the emerging global order is 'Eurasian', and shows why we need to begin thinking on a super-continental scale. While China and Russia have been quicker to recognise the increasing strategic significance of Eurasia, even Europeans are realizing that their political project is intimately linked to the rest of the supercontinent - and as Maçães shows, they will be stronger for it. Weaving together history, diplomacy and vivid reports from his six-month overland journey across Eurasia from Baku to Samarkand, Vladivostock to Beijing, Maçães provides a fascinating portrait of this shifting geopolitical landscape. As he demonstrates, we can already see the coming Eurasianism in China's bold infrastructure project reopening the historic Silk Road, in the success of cities like Hong Kong and Singapore, in Turkey's increasing global role and in the fact that, revealingly, the United States is redefining its place as between Europe and Asia. An insightful and clarifying book for our turbulent times, The Dawn of Eurasia argues that the artificial separation of the world's largest island cannot hold, and the sooner we realise it, the better.

Download or read book The Dawn of Everything written by David Graeber and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A dramatically new understanding of human history, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about social evolution—from the development of agriculture and cities to the origins of the state, democracy, and inequality—and revealing new possibilities for human emancipation. For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike—either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are told, could be achieved only by sacrificing those original freedoms or, alternatively, by taming our baser instincts. David Graeber and David Wengrow show how such theories first emerged in the eighteenth century as a conservative reaction to powerful critiques of European society posed by Indigenous observers and intellectuals. Revisiting this encounter has startling implications for how we make sense of human history today, including the origins of farming, property, cities, democracy, slavery, and civilization itself. Drawing on pathbreaking research in archaeology and anthropology, the authors show how history becomes a far more interesting place once we learn to throw off our conceptual shackles and perceive what’s really there. If humans did not spend 95 percent of their evolutionary past in tiny bands of hunter-gatherers, what were they doing all that time? If agriculture, and cities, did not mean a plunge into hierarchy and domination, then what kinds of social and economic organization did they lead to? The answers are often unexpected, and suggest that the course of human history may be less set in stone, and more full of playful, hopeful possibilities, than we tend to assume. The Dawn of Everything fundamentally transforms our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward imagining new forms of freedom, new ways of organizing society. This is a monumental book of formidable intellectual range, animated by curiosity, moral vision, and a faith in the power of direct action. Includes Black-and-White Illustrations

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the end of the Cold War, Europe is more united and freer from the danger of a major war than at any time in modern history. A historically unprecedented and highly desirable European security order is in place. The Dawn of Peace in Europe describes this new "common security order", assesses the alternatives to it, and analyzes the conditions necessary for its continuation. The Dawn of Peace in Europe emphasizes the inescapable truth that the future of this new order depends on Russia and the United States. Mandelbaum assesses how the wrenching transition taking place within Russia might affect its policies toward the arms treaties and toward its neighbors. Finally, he evaluates the durability of the American commitment to an active role in Europe.

Download or read book The Dawn of Green written by Harriet Ritvo and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-09-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located in the heart of England’s Lake District, the placid waters of Thirlmere seem to be the embodiment of pastoral beauty. But under their calm surface lurks the legacy of a nineteenth-century conflict that pitted industrial progress against natural conservation—and helped launch the environmental movement as we know it. Purchased by the city of Manchester in the 1870s, Thirlmere was dammed and converted into a reservoir, its water piped one hundred miles south to the burgeoning industrial city and its workforce. This feat of civil engineering—and of natural resource diversion—inspired one of the first environmental struggles of modern times. The Dawn of Green re-creates the battle for Thirlmere and the clashes between conservationists who wished to preserve the lake and developers eager to supply the needs of a growing urban population. Bringing to vivid life the colorful and strong-minded characters who populated both sides of the debate, noted historian Harriet Ritvo revisits notions of the natural promulgated by romantic poets, recreationists, resource managers, and industrial developers to establish Thirlmere as the template for subsequent—and continuing—environmental struggles.

This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear, it is obvious that life as we know it is reaching critical mass-environmentally, socially, politically, and spiritually. For thousands of years there have been prophecies of a planetary "shift" of great magnitude, moving us into a higher and brighter new world. This is the autobiography of one of the world's most significant spiritual leaders, with visions of the future of our planet's destiny-of the evolution of benevolent celestial and human leadership into a truly Divine Administration. The Divine New Order And The Dawn Of The First Stage Of Light And Life is the story of Gabriel of Urantia and the EcoVillage and spiritual community he co-founded in 1989 with Niann Emerson Chase and the beginnings of the worldwide Spiritualution SM movement they created together over the last 24 years. Originally written in 1989, this 2013 Third Edition chronicles the flowering and fruition of Global Community Communications Alliance (also known as Divine Administration), including the relocation and growth of the First Planetary Sacred Home-a theological world center, cultural crossroads, and planetary spiritual headquarters. Many of the prophecies that were written in the Bible and other sacred texts have come to pass or are happening now. Some of this book is prophecy-with scenarios that have already come true and some with outcomes yet to be revealed. That outcome is partially in your hands. Discover the Creator's plan to establish a Divine New Order for our world and how you can help to bring about the dawn of the first stage of light and life-to overcome the existing death and darkness of our world in peril by bringing genuine hope, real love, and true justice to every corner of the planet. Spiritual leader Gabriel of Urantia is an Audio Fusion Material Complement (for further explanation see The Cosmic Family volumes), father of four children, activist, teacher, musician, and author. He lives in Tumacacori, Arizona at Avalon Organic Gardens & EcoVillage. Together, spiritual leaders and teachers Gabriel of Urantia and Niann Emerson Chase-who co-share the Mandate of the Bright and Morning Star (see The Cosmic Family, Volume I)-have established more than two dozen outreach and educational ministries, touching all facets of life, health, and reality. This book chronicles the unfolding of that incredible story and the life of this very unique soul, Gabriel of Urantia.
