Download or read book Multilateralism Versus Unilateralism written by Noële Crossley and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are various opinions on the relevance of the United Nations concerning the authorisation of the use of force. Idealists demand UN authorisation for any type of intervention and strict adherence to a narrow interpretation of international law. Realists have a more sceptical stance, arguing that international law and international institutions are only successful under specific circumstances. Neoconservatives defy international law and international institutions. These arguments are compared and then applied to several case studies. It is explained why unilateralist thinking is not viable; why the use of force in circumvention of the UN framework is never legal; and that cases where intervention is illegal but legitimate necessitate reform of international laws and institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the nature and implications of the fact that the major security, economic, and environmental challenges facing our global society today can be addressed in either of two broad ways: unilateral mechanisms and multilateral mechanisms. Multilateralism V Unilateralism draws together a most distinguished group of policymakers and academics to discuss and to debate the interaction in unilateral behavior in the context of the military, economics, the environment, and international organizations. When the tragedy of September 11 occurred, this volume was already well into the planning stage. The volume compares unilateral versus multilateral behavior in the above four areas. The issues presented in this volume represent some of the momentous and historic challenges facing our global society as we embark upon the 21st century.

What are the consequences, for both the United States and the world, of a unilateral America? This book seeks to answer these questions.

Download or read book Private International Law written by Symeon C. Symeonides and published by Hague Academy of International. This book was released on 2021 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Following a brief overview of the history of private international law (PIL) and a longer discussion of the nineteenth century (the first golden age of PIL), this volume offers a detailed and insightful review of the last fifty-year period in the international development of PIL (1970-2020), which is the book's main focus. At least in terms of legislative activity, this period may well be the new golden age of PIL, during which we have witnessed the enactment of 101 national or subnational PIL codifications or recodifications, and almost as many international or regional conventions and EU Regulations. These codifications and conventions provide a reliable gauge for assessing the progress of the discipline; they also form the basis for the comparative observations of this book. The first version of this text was published in the Collected Courses of the Hague Academy of International Law (the 2016 General Course on Private International Law or Conflicts Law). The current volume is an expanded, revised edition of that original text, offering In addition to general updating, two new chapters on party autonomy and on the challenges of the internet"--
Download or read book The Best Laid Plans written by Stewart Patrick and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2008-12-12 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-standing, but unresolved debate of the virtues and values of multilateralism vs. unilateralism in American foreign policy is critically important in today's complicated world. To understand the history of each approach is to understand their opportunities and challenges for the future. The Best Laid Plans answers two central questions. First, why did the United States embrace the principles and practices of liberal multilateralism during World War II? Second, why did it cling to this vision of world order despite the outbreak of the Cold War in the late 1940s, as the 'One World' that had been anticipated by U.S. postwar planners split into two rival global camps? The book contends that neither the U.S. turn to liberal multilateralism nor the persistence of this orientation during the Cold War can be attributed solely or even primarily to the global power structure or crude considerations of material self interest. Rather, Stewart Patrick argues that a combination of enduring identity commitments and new ideas, based on the lessons of recent, cataclysmic events, shaped the policy preferences of American central decision-makers in the Roosevelt and Truman administrations. Although the book is steeped in history, its conclusions have tremendous relevance for the contemporary era, when the United States once again finds itself at the apex of world power, and debates are rife about the role of multilateral cooperation in the realization of U.S. foreign policy objectives.

This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - International Politics - General and Theories, grade: 4.0, course: International Relations, language: English, abstract: This paper sets out to examine how and why a country takes decisions on international issues without recourse to consulting or liaising with other countries either in the execution of war or in the course of embarkation on peacemaking. Focus shall be on some wars and peace-making efforts solely planned and implemented without recourse to set international rules and respect for the protection of human rights and how it affects international relations. What are the impacts of such unilateral decisions? Some of these actions were adjudged either wrong or right especially when unilateralism was precipitated by the lack of consensus to reach negotiations or how unilateralism negatively affects other countries. From whatever position these actions are evaluated, it is a growing anomaly that could manifest dire consequences. What are the statistics of unilateralism in modern times? This thesis shall also examine how the international community responds to unilateralism in conflict resolution. How effective has the reactions of the United Nations towards unilateralism been to date? What are the causes, motivation and consequences of unilateralism? Unilateralism in itself does not determine the legitimacy or illegitimacy of an action. It is the circumstances of the action and the responses of other states that usually determine the legitimacy of unilateralism; especially if the action affects a third state. This thesis shall examine the effects of multilateral responses against unilateralism and how such responses have guarded the norms of international relations and human rights. When does multilateral inaction instigate unilateralism for global benefit? Why do majority of countries remain silent when a country wrongly embark upon a unilateral action to attack or annex another country?

Download or read book The Unilateralist Temptation in American Foreign Policy written by David Skidmore and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-21 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pattern of multilateral engagement and unilateral retrenchment in American foreign policy from the Cold War through the Clinton, Bush, and Obama years presents a puzzle. What accounts for the unilateralist turn? Is it a passing aberration attributable to the neoconservative ideology of the Bush administration? What then of the disengagement evident earlier during Clinton’s presidency, or its continuation under Obama? Was the U.S. investment in multilateral institutions following World War II an anomaly? Or is the more recent retreat from international institutions the irregularity? Skidmore traces U.S. unilateralism to the structural effects of the end of the Cold War, both domestically and abroad, to argue that the United States was more hegemonic than multilateralist—a rule-maker, not a rule-taker. An "institutional bargain" existed under the Cold War threat from the Soviets, but absent those imperatives the United States has been less willing to provide collective goods through strong international institutions and other states are less willing to defer to U.S. exemptions. On the home front, the post-Cold War political environment has made it more difficult for presidents to resist the appeals of powerful interests who are threatened by multilateral commitments. This book demonstrates that American unilateralism has deeper roots and more resilience than many expect. The unilateral temptation can only be overcome through new political bargains domestically and internationally that permit multilateral engagement, even the absence of great power rivalry.
