Book Description
If the European political space has been extensively explored, research has remained all too often focused on the institutions of the European Union and the Council of Europe rather than on the actors who make Europe. This dictionary brings a new angle to scholarship on Europe by systematically investigating its actors: those who work within the institutions or in close contact with them; those who are the targets of European policies; those in the name of whom reforms are carried out; those who promote Europe and those who oppose it. It showcases a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that bridges the usual separation between the European Union and the Council of Europe. In each entry, contributors selected among the leading specialists in their fields of research present the state of the art and the most current research perspectives on European actors. Students, teachers and researchers with an interest in Europe will find this volume to be a valuable work of reference and a source of new and stimulating ideas and perspectives on Europe. More broadly, the dictionary will appeal to ‘professionals of Europe’ eager to gain insights into their working environment as well as to readers interested in understanding Europe through its actors.

Mining in Africa
Author: Bonnie Campbell
Publisher: IDRC
ISBN: 074532939X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
The continent of Africa is rich in minerals needed by Western economies, but rather than forming the basis for economic growth the mining industry contributes very little to African development Investigating the impact of the 2003 Extractive Industries Review on a number of African countries, the contributors find the root of the problem in the controls imposed on the African countries by the IMF and World Bank. They aim to convince academics, governments and industry that regulation needs to be reformed to create a mining industry favourable towards social, economic and environmental development. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach and provides a historical perspective of each country, making it ideal for students of development studies and development organizations.

The Field of the EU Internal Security Agencies
Author: Didier Bigo
Publisher: Editions L'Harmattan
ISBN: 9782296039100
Category : Internal security
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This volume exemplifies the general theory of a field of professionals of security (in the line of our first book Illiberal Practices of Liberal Regimes) and proposes a map of die European internal security agencies (Europol, Eurojust, Frontex, OLAF). It insists on the relations between the agencies in order to give a better idea of the flow of communication and strategic or operational decisions produced at the EU level as too often die audience has only monographers about these agencies. Any researcher, student, NGO or policy maker interested in security in the EU will thus have a better idea of the relations between die agencies and a greater understanding of what is at stake with liberty, security and justice in Europe.

State Sovereignty as Social Construct
Author: Thomas J. Biersteker
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521562522
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 30
Book Description
State sovereignty is an inherently social construct. The modern state system is not based on some timeless principle of sovereignty, but on the production of a normative conception that links authority, territory, population, and recognition in a unique way, and in a particular place (the state). The unique contribution of this book is to describe and illustrate the practices that have produced various sovereign ideals and resistances to them. The contributors analyze how the components of state sovereignty are socially constructed and combined in specific historical contexts.
