Throughout the book, Rochester takes this complex subject and makes it accessible with his vibrant, easy-to-read prose.  After exploring the parameters of international law—its intrinsic challenges and the various approaches to it—Rochester then examines its five major sectors— the law of the sea, airspace, and outer space; human rights; war and peace; states and markets; and the environment—all through the lens of international relations theory. Students will appreciate numerous pedagogical features, such as instructive case studies, photos and cartoons, discussion questions, and—new to this edition—an \"International Law in Action\" box, which uses real-world cases to flesh out the inner workings of international law. Based on reviewer feedback, the author reorganized several chapters, bringing coverage of jurisdiction to the forefront in order to better set the stage for subsequent chapters. With updates to all of the book′s data, factual information, and hundreds of endnotes, Rochester presents the latest IL scholarship in a clear and straightforward manner.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49635729867025,"sku":"GOR013736388","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50175282315537,"sku":"CIN1608717100VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52107065917713,"sku":"CIN1608717100G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52677843845393,"sku":"NLS9781608717101","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1608717100.jpg?v=1751245779"},{"product_id":"fundamental-principles-of-international-relations-book-j-martin-rochester-9780813344188","title":"Fundamental Principles of International Relations","description":"This book distills the essential elements of world politics, both the enduring characteristics as well as the revolutionary changes that may be altering the very fabric of the centuries-old state system. Author J. Martin Rochester explores all the important topics that one would expect to find in an IR text (war, diplomacy, foreign policy, international law and organization, the international economy, and more) but injects fresh perspectives on how globalization and other contemporary trends are affecting these issues. In addition, the author does so through a highly engaging, lively writing style that will appeal to today's students.   Fundamental Principles of International Relations  is a tightly woven treatment of international politics past and present, drawing on the latest academic scholarship while avoiding excessive jargon and utilizing pedagogical aids while avoiding clutter. Rochester ultimately challenges the reader to think critically about the future of a post-Cold War and post-9\/11 world that is arguably more complex, if not more dangerous, than some previous eras, with the potential for promise as well as peril.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50192254042385,"sku":"CIN0813344182G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50362320912657,"sku":"CIN0813344182A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51008219775249,"sku":"NIN9780813344188","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52522549149969,"sku":"NLS9780813344188","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0813344182.jpg?v=1750785963"},{"product_id":"new-warfare-book-j-martin-rochester-9781138191891","title":"The New Warfare","description":"This book looks at the evolving relationship between war and international law, examining the complex practical and legal dilemmas posed by the changing nature of war in the contemporary world, whether the traditional rules governing the onset and conduct of hostilities apply anymore, and how they might be adapted to new realities. War, always messy, has become even messier today, with the blurring of interstate, intrastate, and extrastate violence. How can the United States and other countries be expected to fight honourably and observe the existing norms when they often are up against an adversary who recognizes no such obligations? Indeed, how do we even know whether an \"armed conflict\" is underway when modern wars tend to lack neat beginnings and endings and seem geographically indeterminate, as well? What is the legality of anticipatory self-defense, humanitarian intervention, targeted killings, drones, detention of captured prisoners without POW status, and other controversial practices? These questions are explored through a review of the United Nations Charter, Geneva Conventions, and other regimes and how they have operated in recent conflicts. Through a series of case studies, including the U.S. war on terror and the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Gaza, Kosovo, and Congo, the author illustrates the challenges we face today in the ongoing effort to reduce war and, when it occurs, to make it more humane.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50377648701713,"sku":"CIN1138191892G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51199003197713,"sku":"NIN9781138191891","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":51876767269137,"sku":"CIN1138191892LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52615089914129,"sku":"NLS9781138191891","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1138191892.jpg?v=1751080997"},{"product_id":"between-peril-and-promise-book-j-martin-rochester-9781933116495","title":"Between Peril and Promise","description":"What is your casebook leaving out?The larger, contested role of international law within the study of international politics.States guard their sovereignty, resisting the idea of \u0026amp;BAD:ldquo;global governance,\u0026amp;BAD:rdquo; especially in the face of intensifying globalization that has fostered ever more economic and social interdependence. Despite sovereign concerns, international law is far more than a utopian ideal, Rochester argues; rather, it is a very real part of world affairs that is shaped by international politics and, in turn, shapes relations between states.In vibrant prose, Rochester explores the role of international law in international affairs, moving beyond a purely legal approach to the topic. He begins with the substantive rules of international law and then examines its development and operation in five major sectors\u0026amp;BAD:mdash;human rights; war and peace; the international economy; the law of the sea, airspace, and outer space; and international environment law\u0026amp;BAD:mdash;all through the lens of international relations theory.

In addition, neoliberal doctrines have been reshaped into more effective instruments of oppression and domination. Through a fascinating dialogue with long-time collaborator and fellow activist David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky explores this growing economic and social crisis, arguing that it is now acceptable political discourse to discuss class warfare. Chomsky focuses his customarily critical eye on a range of themes and issues A- from Israel to East Timor, from the US federal reserve to women's rights, from transport subsidies to the dangers of devolution A- and touches on some of his more personal concerns, such as his teaching, his critics and local labour disputes. Class Warfare is challenging, thought-provoking, illuminating and profound, and a powerful road-map to the emerging global capitalism. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51038418305297,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51038421254417,"sku":"NIN9781594030444","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52662420668689,"sku":"NLS9781594030444","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1594030448.jpg?v=1750719836"},{"product_id":"us-foreign-policy-in-the-twenty-first-century-book-j-martin-rochester-9780813343693","title":"US Foreign Policy in the Twenty-First Century","description":"The issues raised by the Iraq War are symptomatic of larger phenomena that will continue to preoccupy American foreign policy makers well into the twenty-first century.
