International Conflict and Conflict Management

International Conflict and Conflict Management

This book asks scholars to reexamine international conflict and its management—in order to move the field toward directly theorizing about and examining the interdependence between conflict events and conflict management attempts. Despite decades of work research on international conflict and its management remains siloed in three fundamental ways. First scholars do not thoroughly address international conflict dynamics within studies of conflict management even though the former give rise to the latter. Second existing work generally investigates one conflict management strategy (e. g. mediation) at the expense of others (e. g. adjudication). These strategies however are not independent of one another; they exist on a single menu from which potential third parties choose. Third parties therefore implicitly—if not explicitly—consider and select among the various strategies when deciding how to manage a conflict thereby inviting and incorporating comparisons. Finally researchers tend to treat conflict management efforts—even within the same conflict—as independent events even though some efforts (e. g. adjudication or arbitration) follow and explicitly relate to other earlier efforts (e. g. an earlier negotiation or mediation). In short elements of sequencing and interaction influence conflict management even as scholars rarely consider such elements. This book will be of great value to scholars and researchers of Political Science International Relations and Conflict Management and Resolution. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of International Interactions. | International Conflict and Conflict Management

Philosophic Classics: Ancient Philosophy Volume I

Philosophic Classics: Ancient Philosophy Volume I

This seventh edition of Philosophic Classics Volume I: Ancient Philosophy includes essential writings of the most important Greek philosophers along with selections from some of their Roman followers. In updating this edition editor Forrest E. Baird has continued to follow the same criteria established by the late Walter Kaufmann when the Philosophic Classics series was first established: (1) to use complete works or where more appropriate complete sections of works (2) in clear translations (3) of texts central to the thinker’s philosophy or widely accepted as part of the canon. To make the works more accessible to students most footnotes treating textual matters (variant readings etc. ) have been omitted and important Greek words have been transliterated and put in angle brackets. In addition each thinker is introduced by a brief essay composed of three sections: (1) biographical (a glimpse of the life) (2) philosophical (a résumé of the philosopher’s thought) and (3) bibliographical (suggestions for further reading). New to this seventh edition: Changes in translations: New translations of Plato’s Apology and Phaedo and Aristotle’s Nichomachean Ethics and Politics from the acclaimed Focus Philosophical Library Series. New translations of Plato’s Euthyphro and Crito. New translations of Epicurus’s Letter to Herodotus Letter to Menoeceus and Principal Doctrines. New translation of the Parmenides fragments. Additional material: Gorgias’s model oration Encomium on Helen which gives a defense of Helen of Troy. A selection from Plato’s Gorgias on nature versus convention or law . Additional material from the opening of Plato’s Symposium to contextualize the dialogue. Additional material from Plato’s Republic (Book IX) on the tri-partite soul. Additional material from Aristotle’s Metaphysics (Book IV 1-4 7) on the nature of being and the so-called three rules of thought. A brief selection from Porphyry’s Life of Plotinus giving a sense of the person. Updated and reorganized bibliographies. To allow for all these changes a section of Book V from Plato’s Republic has been dropped. Those who use this first volume in a one-term course in ancient philosophy will find more material here than can easily fit a normal semester. But this embarrassment of riches gives teachers some choice and for those who offer the same course year after year an opportunity to change the menu. | Philosophic Classics: Ancient Philosophy Volume I
