Terrorism and Collective Responsibility (Points of Conflict)
By Taylor Wilkins
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher: Routledge
Number Of Pages: 172
Publication Date: 1992-03-26
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 041504152X
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780415041522
Binding: Paperback
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Terrorism and Collective Responsibility is the first full-length examination of terrorism written by a philosopher. In this controversial study, Burleigh Taylor Wilkins relates terrorism to the problem of collective responsibility, and makes the provocative claim that terrorism may be morally justifiable under certain circumstances.
Wilkins suggests that the popular characterization of terrorists as criminals does not take into account the reasons that terrorists resort to violence, and maintains that terrorism should be distinguished from "ordinary" criminal activity. Wilkins discusses various models of collective responsibility, and relates terrorism to the just war tradition. Central to the book is the author's claim that terrorism cannot be understood apart from the problem of the collective responsibility of organized groups, such as political states, for wrongdoings committed against the groups which the terrorists represent.
Original in its thesis and timely in its examination of an issue crucial to today's world, this book will appeal to anyone interested in the moral issues surrounding terrorism.

Ethics, Liberalism and Realism in International Relations (Routledge Advances in International Relations and Global Politicá)
By Mark D Gismondi
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher:Routledge
Number Of Pages:278
Publication Date:2007-11-02
ISBN-10 / ASIN:0415772370
ISBN-13 / EAN:9780415772372
Binding:Hardcover
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
This book explores the complex issue of international ethics in the two dominant schools of thought in international relations; Liberalism and Realism.
Both theories suffer from an inability to integrate the ethical and pragmatic dimensions of foreign policy. Liberal policy makers often suffer from moral blindness and a tendency toward coercion in the international arena, whilst realists tend to be epistemic sceptics, incorporating Nietzsche’s thought, directly or indirectly, into their theories. Mark Gismondi seeks to resolve the issues in these two approaches by adopting a covenant based approach, as described by Daniel Elazar’s work on the covenant tradition in politics, to international relations theory.
The covenant approach has three essential principles:
policy makers must have a sense of realism about the existence of evil and its political consequences
power must be shared and limited
liberty requires a basis inshared values.
Ethics, Realism and Liberalism in International Relations will be of interest to students and researchers of politics, philosophy, ethics and international relations.

Civil Disobedience in Focus (Philosophers in Focus)
By Hugo Bedau
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher:Routledge
Number Of Pages:224
Publication Date:1991-05-16
ISBN-10 / ASIN:0415050553
ISBN-13 / EAN:9780415050555
Binding:Paperback
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Although the issue of civil disobedience has been discussed as early as 399 B.C., this topic continues to be at the center of much recent debate in the wake of events such as Tiananmen Square and the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa. Civil Disobedience in Focus assembles all the basic materials, both classic and contemporary, needed for the philosophical assessment of this controversial subject.
The first part of this work explores the three most influential classic arguments: Plato in the Crito, Thoreau in the 1840s, and Martin Luther King, Jr. in the 1960s. The second part of this book shifts to a contemporary philosophical discussion setting forth the most important reflections by a number of today's leading thinkers. Included is John Rawls's definition and justification of civil disobedience in liberal democracy which has provoked much dicussion. The other essays, written by contemporary British and American thinkers, bring into sharp relief the issues -- conceptual, normative, and political -- raised in the classic arguments.
A stimulating edition, Civil Disobedience in Focus will be invaluable to students of ethics, social/political philosophy, and philosophy of law, as well as to activists.

Aggression and Crimes Against Peace (Philosophical and Legal Aspects of War and Conflict)
By Larry May
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher:Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:366
Publication Date:2008-04-21
ISBN-10 / ASIN:052189431X
ISBN-13 / EAN:9780521894319
Binding:Hardcover
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
In this volume, the third in his trilogy on the philosophical and legal aspects of war and conflict, Larry May locates a normative grounding for the crime of aggression-the only one of the three crimes charged at Nuremberg that is not currently being prosecuted-that is similar to that for crimes against humanity and war crimes. He considers cases from the Nuremberg trials, philosophical debates in the Just War tradition, and more recent debates about the International Criminal Court, as well as the hard cases of humanitarian intervention and terrorist aggression. May argues that crimes of aggression, sometimes called crimes against peace, deserve international prosecution when one State undermines the ability of another State to protect human rights. His thesis refutes the traditional understanding of aggression, which often has been interpreted as a crossing of borders by one sovereign state into another sovereign state. At Nuremberg, crimes against humanity charges were only pursued if the defendant also engaged in the crime of aggression. May argues for a reversal of this position, contending that aggression charges should be pursued only if the defendant's acts involve serious human rights violations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Globalization involves a profound re-ordering of our world with the proliferation everywhere of rules and transnational modes of governance. This book examines how this governance is formed, changes and stabilizes. Building on a rich and varied set of empirical cases, it explores transnational rules and regulations and the organizing, discursive and monitoring activities that frame, sustain and reproduce them. Beginning from an understanding of the powerful structuring forces that embed and form the context of transnational regulatory activities, the book scrutinizes the actors involved, how they are organized, how they interact and how they transform themselves to adapt to this new regulatory landscape. A powerful analysis of the modes and logics of transnational rule-making and rule-monitoring closes the book. This authoritative resource offers ideal reading for all academic researchers and graduate students of governance and regulation.

Beyond the Anarchical Society: Grotius, Colonialism and Order in World Politics (LSE Monographs in International Studies)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher:Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:180

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
It is commonly argued that the international system is currently in a state of upheaval, as state sovereignty is challenged by a variety of forces. Keene's book questions this assumption, arguing that sovereignty has never existed globally in any case, and suggesting that it has applied only to Western states. International relations elsewhere have been characterized by the norms of colonialism, rather than international law. The book examines the conduct of the British and Dutch empires, and how the traditions of colonialism have been challenged in the modern world.

Toward a Theory of Human Rights: Religion, Law, Courts
By Michael J. Perry
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher:Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:270
Publication Date:2006-11-13
ISBN-10 / ASIN:0521865514
ISBN-13 / EAN:9780521865517
Binding:Hardcover
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Neither the morality of human rights nor its relation to the law of human rights is well understood. In this book, Michael Perry addresses three large issues: o There is undeniably a religious ground - indeed, more than one religious ground - for the morality of human rights. But is there a nonreligious (secular) ground for the morality of human rights? o What is the relation between the morality of human rights and the law of human rights? Perry here addresses the controversial issues of capital punishment, abortion, and same-sex unions. o What is the proper role of courts, in a liberal democracy, in protecting-and therefore in interpreting-constitutionally entrenched human rights? In considering this question, special attention is paid to the Supreme Court and how it should rule on hot button issues such as capital punishment and abortion. Toward a Theory of Human Rights makes a significant contribution both to human rights studies and to constitutional theory.

Binding:Paperback
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Digital rights management (DRM) is a type of server software developed to enable secure distribution - and perhaps more importantly, to disable illegal distribution - of paid content over the Web. DRM technologies are being developed as a means of protection against the online piracy of commercially marketed material, which has proliferated through the widespread use of Napster and other peer-to-peer file exchange programs.
With the flourish of these file exchange programs, content owners, creators and producers need to have a plan to distribute their content digitally and protect it at the same timea seemingly impossible task. There are numerous books dealing with copyright, eBusiness, the Internet, privacy, security, content management, and related technical subjects. Additionally, there are several research papers, and almost daily newspaper and magazine articles dealing with digital piracy. However, there are only a few books and documents that bring these together as a basis for profitable exchange of digital content. Digital Rights Management can help content providers make money by unifying the confusing array of concepts that swirl around current presentations of DRM in newspapers and business publications.
* Learn from an award winning author and Emmy nominee
* Perfect for the non-technical decision maker, content owner or DRM implementation manager
* Details all the options from legal to technical

Binding:Paperback
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product Description:
Evidence suggests that a values based approach to management positively impacts employee engagement and motivation. As well as reducing an organisations susceptibility to fraud and misconduct, ultimately, we all want to be proud of the organisation for which we work. Leadership organisations are recognising that this means moving beyond the simple goals of profit, and thinking about how they operate in relation to staff, customers, investors and the communities in which we all work.
Law and ethics both have an influence on how we behave but they are far from the same thing. Many acts that would be widely condemned as unethical are not prohibited by law, betraying the confidence of a friend, for example.
This book explores the most influential areas of this framework including the law relating to employment, consumer protection and product liability.
Discover how organisations adopt an ethical and values based approach to governance.
Assess the culture and values of your organisation and what effect they have on the behaviour of the organisation
Review the legal framework in which an organisation operates and the impact of this on your role as a manager
Minimise legal risk by familiarising yourself with essential legal principles relating to the management of contracts, negligence, employment law and product liability.
