Powering Europe: Russia, Ukraine, and the Energy Squeeze

Argentine Freedom
 is the first account of the most disruptive figure in Argentine history since the nation’s return to democracy. In just a few years, Javier Milei rose from television economist and social media provocateur to president of a country long defined by crisis, state intervention, and political polarization. His ascent has sparked fierce debate at home and abroad: Is Milei a threat to democracy, a neo-conservative, or the herald of a much larger revival of the classical liberal tradition?
 
 The book provides a balanced examination of Milei’s rise to power. Rather than judging his policies, economic historian Sebastián Álvarez and political philosopher Ezequiel Spector ask a deeper set of questions: Where do Milei’s ideas come from? How do they relate to Argentina’s liberal tradition and its history of populism, socialism, and authoritarianism? And what does his presidency reveal about the tensions between liberty, equality, and democracy in the twenty-first century?&nbsp;
 
 Blending economic history, political philosophy, and contemporary analysis,&nbsp;
 Argentine Freedom
 traces Argentina’s long ideological arc from the liberal foundations of the 1853 Constitution, through Peronism, military rule, neoliberal reform, and the interventionist turn after the 2001 collapse, to the two liberal “waves” that culminated in Milei’s election. Along the way, it unpacks the meanings of liberalism and libertarianism, contrasts them with their main rivals, and situates Milei within both national history and a broader global surge of anti-establishment leaders.
 
 The resulting book offers a new way to understand Javier Milei as a political actor—and Argentina as a country once again at a crossroads.
 Sebastián Álvarez
 is Professor at Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile and Associate Researcher at the Graduate Institute in Geneva, Switzerland. His work explores the history of finance and banking in Latin America, with particular attention to how capital markets shape economic policy and international relations. He is the author of 
 Mexican Banks and Foreign Finance
 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019).
 Ezequiel Spector
 is Research Professor and Director of the Master of Arts program in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile. He is the author of 
 Freedom as Social Cooperation

Studies in National Governance and Emerging Technologies

This book examines how artificial intelligence systems and their applications in security and defence are entangled with governance and policy processes in the EU. Combining concepts and insights from (critical) security studies and science and technology studies, it argues that behind the various AI-related policy initiatives in the EU are particular narratives on security and defence based on European fears of technological innovation and strategic gaps. In this respect, the book casts light on how such beliefs have become increasingly instrumentalized in the European governance dynamics, and subsequently embedded in successive policy initiatives and security and defence research programmes. It challenges conventional understandings of AI technologies as mere security and defence-enabling instruments, by providing a conceptually driven analysis of how certain visions of AI help govern and control one of the most dynamic emergent socio-technical fields. The book will appeal to all those interested in artificial intelligence, security studies, technology and European governance.&nbsp;
 
 Raluca Csernatoni is a Research Fellow at Carnegie Europe, where she works on the nexus between European defence and emerging technologies. She is also Guest Professor at the Centre for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy (CSDS), Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium, and Visiting Faculty in the Department of International Relations, Central European University, Austria.

Artificial Security and the Politics of Hype in the EU

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

Palgrave Studies in Sub-National Governance

This book examines local refugee integration policies in Western Europe, focusing on small and medium-sized towns and rural areas. Applying an innovative cross-country comparative approach, it maps and compares integration policies targeting humanitarian migrants in 36 localities across seven countries – Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Italy and Austria. It also analyses the drivers and effects of local policymaking processes in this field.The book challenges the dominant view that migration policymaking tends to be pragmatic and oriented at problem-solving. Rather, it shows that local integration policies are largely shaped by political factors, including the political affiliations of local governments, the presence and strength of radical right parties, and the dynamics of multilevel party politics. In doing so, the book throws new light on migration policymaking in small European localities, contributing to a field dominated by studies of big cities and metropolitan areas.Tiziana Caponio

The Politicisation of Local Integration Policymaking in Europe

Modern Studies in European Law

This book clarifies all legal aspects of the good neighbourliness principle in international and EU law. It elaborates on the most acute infringements of the principle of good neighbourliness in both international relations and EU enlargement policy. Taking a two-part approach, it offers the international law and EU law perspectives. Over five chapters, it sets out the legal framework and the practical application of the principle, before setting out conclusions on the effectiveness of that application. Given the current focus on enlargement and accession to the EU this is a timely and topical study in an under-researched field.

The Principle of Good Neighbourliness in International Law and EU Law

How should the Arctic be viewed in the 21st century? In this book, a leading commentator assesses the competing players for the Arctic, looking at broad questions of governance and security. The author challenges the view that the Arctic is a passive space which is the focus of competitive advances from superpowers, arguing that it is more correctly understood as a dynamic pluriverse. Drawing on international law, international relations and diplomacy, this is an important re-assessment of the Arctic and its position in geo-politics.

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

Conflicts and Power Relations in Ecuador's Shrimp Sector

Tides of Extraction

For decades, the US assumed ideas would naturally flow from research into commercialization. That assumption no longer holds. As Anne Marie Knott shows, the US innovation system is no longer fit for purpose in an age of great-power rivalry. Since 1980, American R&amp;D productivity has fallen dramatically, while China has become far better at turning R&amp;D into growth. Why? Because the two countries operate from fundamentally different models of innovation. The United States follows a 'river' logic: produce frontier science and trust the market to carry discoveries downstream. China follows a 'lake' logic: absorb, develop, diffuse, and capture value. Drawing on new empirical research and a widely applicable measure of R&amp;D productivity, Knott challenges seven myths shaping US innovation policy and offers a reform agenda built less on new spending than on using existing tools far more effectively. The result is a provocative account of innovation, growth, and national power.

Bringing a Knife to a Gunfight

The US Innovation War with China

In a moment of interlocking and compounding crises that many commentators have aptly termed the "polycrisis," a leading economist offers a clear-eyed account of the underlying trends fueling the global instability and market mayhem that have come to characterize contemporary capitalism. 
 
Rampant inequality. Unchecked climate change. A global pandemic. And now, seething international divisions and the escalatory spiral of war and state violence. As the world moves toward the end of the 2020s, each of the pieces of this mosaic are becoming impossible to ignore, but how do they all fit together? And where is it all heading? 
 
To answer these questions, Marxist economist Michael Roberts draws on his forty-plus years of experience working in various financial institutions in the City of London to provide an empirically grounded and wide-ranging appraisal of the global situation. 
 
Roberts takes readers on a tour of the contemporary global economy, first by turning back to the Great Recession of 2008, and then offering a granular look at the economic priorities and contradictions of every region of the world. 
 
What emerges from this accounting of the polycrisis is the inescapable fact that capitalism's rapacious drive toward profit over and against any geopolitical boundaries or ecological limits threatens both humanity and the planet.&nbsp;

Depression, Polycrisis, and the World Economy in the 2020s

Time Is Running Out

Nestor Machno war zehn Monate alt, als sein Vater starb. Aufgrund der Armut seiner Familie konnte er nur in den Wintermonaten die Schule besuchen, während er in den Sommermonaten bei benachbarten Gutsherren im heute ukrainischen Oblast Saporischschja als Schafhirte arbeitete. Durch die seit der Russischen Revolution von 1905 härter gewordenen Repressionen des Zarenreichs wandte er sich, inspiriert von revolutionären Gruppen, dem Anarchismus und den Ideen Bakunins und Kropotkins zu. 1906, im Alter von achtzehn Jahren, wurde er erstmals verhaftet, 1910 ein weiteres Mal und zum Tode verurteilt, aber dann zu lebenslanger Haft begnadigt. 1917 gelang ihm die Flucht, ein Jahr darauf wurde die Ukraine durch den Frieden von Brest-Litowsk politisch und ökonomisch von Sowjetrussland getrennt. Wassili Golowanow schildert mitreißend vor dem Hintergrund der Wirren der Geschichte die kaum zu fassende Biografie Machnos bis zu seinem Tod im Pariser Exil und erzählt dessen kometenhaften Aufstieg zum Anführer einer kompromisslosen, nach ihm benannten Freiheitsbewegung, die eine anarchistische Ukraine verwirklichen wollte.
