The Problem of Harm in World Politics : Theoretical Investigations
This book develops an original approach to the sociology of international relations. Its discussion of shifting attitudes to permissible and impermissible forms of harm is the result of a very considerable investment in comprehending relevant literatures in several disciplines– ethics, criminology, jurisprudence and process sociology as well as International Relations. The synthesis of core themes from those fields is based on extensive research on the method and argument of process sociology, and on hitherto unexplored links with English School theory. Leading reviewers have stressed the ‘astonishing’ range of the scholarship that underpins a work that changes ‘the field of vision’.
