Lebow R: Why Nations Still Fight

Why Nations Still Fight

Sustainable Finance

In a world defined by wars, migrations, energy crises, and climate tensions, the forces shaping our future are more complex and more urgent than ever. Geopolitics is no longer just for strategists; it is the key to understanding how nations, economies, and societies navigate the challenges of sustainability.
This book shows how power dynamics between nations, peoples, and territories influence our environmental vulnerabilities, economic choices, and societal debates. Accessible yet rigorous, it is aimed at professors, students, CEOs, policymakers, government officials, NGOs, and anyone shaping the world of tomorrow.
A clear, insightful, and urgent guide, it invites readers to think geopolitically about sustainability because in a fragmented and interconnected world, understanding these forces is no longer optional. It is essential.

How Big Data, AI, Green Transition and Sustainable Finance Transform the World

The New Geopolitics of Sustainability

Global Law and Sustainable Development

Given the significant developments in Indian economic and trade policymaking over the last two decades, this book provides an authoritative and timely analysis of the transformation and current state of India's foreign economic policy. The work presents a comprehensive, informed and critical overview of negotiating issues addressed in the recent period leading up to the substantial conclusion of the Trade Facilitation Agreement. The volume also takes into account the geopolitical considerations that influenced the negotiations. Finally, the reform steps being taken by India need to be understood in light of the structural changes in the economy, fuelling domestic compulsion, and the analysis covers this undercurrent in detail. The book will be a valuable guide to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of international trade law, development economics and global politics.

Deciphering the Law, Economics and Politics

India’s Foreign Economic Policy

The epic history of world order, revealing how the decline of the West may be a good thing for its future. Since the dawn of the twenty-first century, the West has been in crisis. Social unrest, political polarization, and the rise of other great powers - especially China - threaten to unravel today's Western-led world order. Many fear this would lead to global chaos. But this is a Western illusion. Surveying five thousand years of global history, political scientist Amitav Acharya reveals that world order existed long before the rise of the West. Moving from ancient Sumer, India, Greece, and Mesoamerica, through medieval caliphates and Eurasian empires into the present, Acharya shows that humanitarian values, economic interdependence, and rules of inter-state conduct emerged across the globe over millennia. History suggests order will endure even as the West retreats. Instead of fearing the future, the West should learn from history and cooperate with the Rest to forge a more equitable order.

Why Global Civilization Will Survive the Decline of the West

The Once and Future World Order

World Scientific Studies in International Economics

This book offers the most comprehensive account to date of how trade, migration, and labor markets have bound the United States and Mexico into one of the world's most deeply integrated economies. It highlights the supply chains that connect factories across borders, the workers whose livelihoods span two nations, and the shared opportunities and vulnerabilities that emerge from this unprecedented level of interdependence.

At the heart of Not Just Neighbors is a clear argument: the US-Mexico relationship is not merely about proximity, but about the making of a single North American economy. Trade flows surpassing those with China, the planet's largest migration corridor, and cross-border industries from autos to agriculture all demonstrate how the fate of the two countries are linked.

Drawing on decades of research, the book explains both the gains of integration - competitiveness, efficiency, shared prosperity - and the challenges it produces, such as inequality, dislocation, and political tensions.

Written in a simple and an accessible manner, Not Just Neighbors is a timely and an essential reading for academics and policymakers, business leaders, and engaged citizens alike. It provides a roadmap for cooperative policies that can turn interdependence into a powerful engine of prosperity and security, while warning of the risks if this partnership is neglected.

Studies in International Law

This book offers a comprehensive overview of international law in the light of contemporary challenges facing Central Asian States. The Central Asian States (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan) are increasingly gaining in significance as international players. During the Soviet period, they were only nominally sovereign States but since 1991, they became full-fledged members of the international community, and have, ever since, been constructing their respective schools of international law. Unresolved border disputes, regional migration, drug trafficking, human trafficking, disputes over water, the rise of terrorism are just a few challenges, which require Central Asian States¿ cooperation among themselves, and with other States. The competing interests of especially China, Russia, the United States, and the European Union in the region are adding to the complex mosaic of regional dynamics. This study shows the relevance and utility of international law in resolving those issues, in the interdisciplinary context of international relations, international institutions, and sociology of law. From a pedagogical perspective, the book identifies challenges to teaching international law in Central Asia, including curricular issues, independence of higher education institutions, language issues, influence of various foreign schools of international law doctrine, etc., and explores ways to integrate the Central Asian schools of international law in a broader Asian and international picture.

A Central Asian Perspective on International Law

State responsibility in international law provides for the legal consequences following breaches of international law. This book opens the topic for critical discussion for international lawyers and readers who take a broad interest in international responsibility, including international criminal law and international liability.

A Critical Appraisal

State Responsibility in the International Legal Order

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 MOORE PRIZE IN HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING 'Prosecuting The Powerful isn't just compelling and very moving, it has all the force of a well-crafted thriller. I literally couldn't stop reading it,' John Simpson, BBC World Affairs Editor 'A compelling account of a revolutionary moment in history,' Philippe Sands, The Spectator 'Powerful, timely and moving,' Baroness Helena Kennedy KC 'A tour de force,' Lindsey Hilsum, International Editor, Channel 4 News 'Absolutely brilliant,' Nick Cohen Could we ever see Vladimir Putin in the dock for his crimes? What about a Western ally like Benjamin Netanyahu? Putting a country's leader on trial once seemed unimaginable. But as Steve Crawshaw describes in Prosecuting the Powerful - a blend of powerful eyewitness reporting and gripping history - the possibilities of justice have been transformed. Crawshaw includes recent stories from the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine and at The Hague, as well as his earlier encounters with war criminals like Slobodan Miloševi¿. He tells the stories of those who have demanded protection for civilians and accountability for war criminals - from the Geneva Conventions to the Syrian police photographer who helped put one of Bashar al-Assad's torturers behind bars. He also follows the extraordinary unfolding story of two of the world's most powerful and well-connected leaders currently under indictment at the International Criminal Court in The Hague: Putin and Netanyahu. For all the current darkness, this is a historic opportunity. The scales of justice can and must be balanced. Now is the moment.

The book offers a critical and comprehensive examination of the concept of NIAC, including its normative foundations, threshold of activation, and corresponding personal, geographical, and temporal scope of applicability under International Humanitarian Law. It identifies and critically examines some of the most controversial aspects of modern NIACs, including notions of a 'global battlefield' and 'forever war' and provides practical guidance on identifying NIACs in real time. It is essential reading for international law academics, students and practitioners. This title is part of the Flip it Open Programme and may also be available open access.

International Law and Practice

Identifying Non-International Armed Conflict

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.
