The Reason of States

A Study in International Political Theory
Herausgeber: Donelan, Michael

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1978, this book examines how the states-system grew over generations, first within Europe, then world wide and how the idea of the state came to monopolise our vision of the world. It discusses the grounds for the division of humanity into separate states in reason and history and whether or not we can use terms like 'obligation' and 'justice' in seeking to understand our relations with people of other states.
