( The putative new world order, when viewed from differen...)
The putative new world order, when viewed from different regions of the globe, is not really new, is hardly global in scope, and is anything but orderly in its development. In this volume, an international cast of contributors comes together to share regional perspectives on questions about peace and security, economic growth and welfare, and democracy and civil society in the post–Cold War world. They find that there has been “uneven globalization” with strong “regional variation”—two important concepts that this book brings to theory-building beyond the rhetoric of new world order thinking. An ideal supplement for many courses in international relations, Whose World Order? transcends the typically Eurocentric view projected in most textbooks, combining theory and practical evidence from the different regions in innovative applications and analyses.

Fragile States Lothar Brock, Hans-Henrik Holm, Georg Sorenson, Michael Stohl ISBN: 978-0-7456-4941-2 200 pages December 2011, Polity Description Today a billion people, including about 340 million of the world's extreme poor, are estimated to live in 'fragile states'. This group of low-income countries are often trapped in cycles of conflict and poverty, which make them acutely vulnerable to a range of shocks and crises. This engaging book defines and clarifies what we mean by fragile states, examining their characteristics in relation to "weak" and "failed" states in the global system, and explaining their development from pre-colonial times to the present day. It explores the connections between fragile statehood and violent conflict, and analyses the limitations of outside intervention from international society. The complexities surrounding 'successes' such as Costa Rica and Botswana - countries which ought to be fragile, but which are not - are analysed alongside the more precarious cases of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Afghanistan and Haiti. Absorbing and authoritative, Fragile States will be an invaluable resource for students and scholars of international relations, security studies and development. brock is research professor at the Peace Research Institute, Frankfurt. Hans-Henrik Holm is professor and head of department at the Danish School of Media and Journalism. Georg Sørensen is professor of political science at Aarhus University. Michael Stohl is professor of communication and political science at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Poverty-stricken and politically unstable, the world's 'fragile states' are central to a range of contemporary conflicts and crises This accessible book explains and clarifies the debates surrounding contested terms such as 'fragile', 'weak' and 'failed' states, with reference to a global range of examples. Written by a highly distinguished team of authors, each of whom is a leading expert in the field This authoritative account will be essential reading for students in politics, development studies and a wide range of related disciplines Reviews "The authors have done a superb job unpacking the complexities surrounding the concept of 'fragile state'. The scholarship is first-rate. Highly recommended." Choice "A very important book, tightly argued and brilliantly written, two qualities rarely found in a work by four authors of several nationalities. It is committed neither to an ideological orthodoxy, whether neo-liberal or neo-Marxist,nor purely descriptive or historical. It is both theoretical and empirical, both firm and nuanced. This small book is worth a whole library of studies on nation-building, fragile states and foreign interventions." Survival
