Details This gripping account of political intrigue against a backdrop of growing absolutism and religious intolerance traces the careers of two Byzantine women, Theodora and Antonina, who through their husbands, the emperor Justinian and his greatest general Belisarius were able to wield considerable power. Evans brings to life the fierce rivalries within the imperial court, and shows how Theodora and Antonina were able to negotiate these, whilst promoting their own families and factions, and in...

This work examines Britain's role in international affairs from the age of Gladstone and Disraeli to the end of the World War One. It explores such themes as Britains involvement in the Scramble for Africa, the Anglo-Boer War, the foreign policy of Lord Salisbury and the prospects for Britain and the Empire at the end of the World War One.

Thomas Friedman has been a New York Times foreign affairs columnist since 1995. He is said by many to be a principled observer of international events and an even-handed analyst of American policy. But Belen Fernandez's acerbic close reading of Friedman's voluminous oeuvre reveals instead a ham-fisted apologist for US military excesses and neoliberal corporate policies - as well as a risibly bad writer. Fernandez carefully reviews the Friedman corpus, and her documentation of Friedman's sloppy mistakes...

This book provides an authoritative and far-reaching, yet controversial analysis of European efforts to implement and secure global action on climate change, and how this relates to wider questions about the role of European and global sustainability. Written by an experienced, international and multidisciplinary team of authors, the book analyzes internal EU policies, negotiating positions and outcomes. It looks at the underlying theoretical disputes that led to a wide range of divergent...

Effortlessly mixing military history with diplomatic analysis, Josef Joffe examines the transformation of the United States from a coalition-building superpower to a sprawling and surly uberpower, constrained only by the consequences of its unilateral actions. America is now tempted to throw its weight around, neglect old allies and bypass international institutions. Discussing all dimensions of power - military, economic and cultural - Joffe sees America as a geo-political bulldozer that quashes...

9789490947774 THE BYZANTINE IMPERIAL ACTS TO VENICE, PISA AND GENOA, 10TH - 12TH CENTURIES: A COMPARATIVE LEGAL STUDY

Description An Imperial Path to Modernity examines the role of liberal intellectuals in reshaping transnational ideas and internationalist aspirations into national values and imperial ambitions in early twentieth-century Japan. Perceiving the relationship between liberalism and the international world order, a cohort of Japanese thinkers conformed to liberal ideas and institutions to direct Japan s transformation into a liberal empire in Asia. To sustain and rationalize the imperial enterprise,...

This book is an ethnographic study of a group of Western women living in Pakistan as international development workers, with a focus on how these transnational migrants constructed new lives and identities in a Muslim community. Nancy  Cook addresses the ways in which these women both perpetuate and resist unequal global power relations in their everyday lives, tracing  the legacy of these relations from the colonial period to the present.

This book is the culmination of many years' work from two authors who have "lived and breathed" the subject for the past forty years: one, a military antiques dealer of international standing; the other, an extremely knowledgeable collector of German World War I uniforms and equipment. Using mostly never before published period photographs as well as a wealth of highly detailed colour studio photos of tunics drawn from one of the world's greatest private collections, it is an absolute must for any...

Like their heavy cruiser brethren, the light cruisers built by the Imperial Japanese Navy in the build-up to WWII paid little more than lip service to the international naval treaties that were intended to keep the naval powers on a level playing field. The eight classes of light cruiser developed by the IJN were fast, well-armed, and technologically superior to the fleets the Allied powers could bring to bear. Serving with distinction across the Pacific Theatre, the IJN's light cruisers were committed...

It's Noam Chomsky vs the Bush Regime in this much-anticipated spoken-word release. Recorded in November 2004, just after the 're-election' of George W. Bush, Chomsky pinpoints the principle commitments of the current administration. In the name of expanding markets and controlling access to key natural resources, we've seen the blatant undermining of democratic practice, contempt for international law, restriction of civil liberties, and the use of state terrorism to further policy objectives. This...

This book examines why the incident was not resolved locally the reasons for escalation and why a solution continued to be elusive. In charting the development of the crisis emphasis is put on the interaction of a broad range of local regional national...

In the nineteenth century The Dead Sea and the Tigris-Euphrates river system had great political significance: the one as a possible gateway for a Russian invasion of Egypt, the other as a potentially faster route to India. This is the traditional explanation for the presence of the international powers in the region. This important new book questions this view. Through a study of two important projects of the time - international efforts to determine the exact level of the Dead Sea, and Chesney...

The German Empire, its structure, its dynamic development between 1871 and 1918, and its legacy, have been the focus of lively international debate that is showing signs of further intensification as we approach the centenary of the outbreak of World War I. Based on recent work and scholarly arguments about continuities and discontinuities in modern German history from Bismarck to Hitler, well-known experts broadly explore four themes: the positioning of the Bismarckian Empire in the course of German...

Far from having to 'scram from Africa' following the abandonment of her 'East of Suez' role, and despite the problems of Mau Mau, and the even the Suez debacle on a larger international stage, Britain continued to vigorously pursue imperial African interests. And Kenya was centre-stage. Much scholarship has been devoted to the Emergency (1952-60), fear of a post-Mau Mau civil war, de-colonization and setting up independent Kenya but little on British policy in pursuing her vital interests beyond...

The claim by certain rulers to universal empire has a long history stretching as far back as the Assyrian and Achaemenid Empires. This book traces its various manifestations in classical antiquity, the Islamic world, Asia and Central America as well as considering seventeenth- and eighteenth-century European discussions of international order. As such it is an exercise in comparative world history combining a multiplicity of approaches, from ancient history, to literary and philosophical studies...

Air empire is a fresh study of civil aviation as a tool of late British imperialism. The first pioneering flights across the British empire in 1919-20 were flag-waving adventures that recreated an era of plucky British maritime exploration and conquest. Britain's development of international air routes and services was approved, organised and celebrated largely in London; there was some resistance in and beyond the subordinate colonies and dominions. Negotiating the financing and geopolitics of regular...
