Beschreibung

With a diverse group of contributors from law, business and the social sciences, this book explores the line not only between order and disorder in global affairs, but also chaos and control, continuity and change, the core and the margins. The key themes include: global crises and the role of international law, norms and institutions; the challenge of pluralism to regulatory clarity; and critical assessments of taken-for-granted systems and values such as capitalism, centralised government, de-militarisation and the separation of powers. The book divides into two key parts. The first part, `Conceptions', considers the diverse way in which order/disorder can be conceived in global governance and regulation. The second part, `Case Studies', groups chapters around five topic areas: citizens, capitalism, conflict, crime and courts. The authors here build on the themes presented in the first part by embedding them within specific areas of international regulation, such as international criminal law, maritime law or finance regulation; jurisdictions and regions, such as Australia, Canada, China, Japan and South Asia; and subject-matter, such as water resources, citizenship, statelessness and public interest litigation. This blend of contemporary subject-matter, empirical studies, multi-disciplinary perspectives and academic theories provides a comprehensive analysis to current and emerging debates in the broader global community. In utilizing interdisciplinary studies to draw out common issues and alternative solutions, the book will appeal to a wide readership among academics and policy-makers.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

What is the nature of the contemporary global order? Leon Wolff and Danielle Ireland-Piper's volume is an essential and invaluable resource for answering this question. Impressive in the exceptionally diverse multidisciplinary perspectives and diverse methodologies represented, Wolff and Ireland-Piper's volume provides an overview of a comprehensive range of positions on both the existence and features of the global (dis)order. It is a model of the kind of deep, multidisciplinary dialogue that is necessary to adequately understand and address the most pressing and complex global challenges.
