U.S. Foreign Relations with the Middle East and North Africa
Author: Sanford R. Silverburg
Publisher: Scarecrow Area Bibliographies
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
Because crises tend to generate more foreign policy, and thus more literature on the subject, the Middle East and North Africa are common topics of debate and scholarship. This book supplements the bibliographies already in print regarding this topic, including material on the Arab-Israeli conflict, Lebanese Civil War, Iran hostages, Gulf War, and Intifada. Entries include references to new electronic sources; some entries are non- English, allowing for greater breadth of coverage. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Judicial Integrity
Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9047413717
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Traditional separation of powers theories assumed that governmental despotism will be prevented by dividing the branches of government which will check one another. Modern governments function with unexpected complicity among these branches. Sometimes one of the branches becomes overwhelming. Other governmental structures, however, tend to mitigate these tendencies to domination. Among other structures courts have achieved considerable autonomy vis-à-vis the traditional political branches of power. They tend to maintain considerable distance from political parties in the name of professionalism and expertise. The conditions and criteria of independence are not clear, and even less clear are the conditions of institutional integrity. Independence (including depolitization) of public institutions is of particular practical relevance in the post-Communist countries where political partisanship penetrated institutions under the single party system. Institutional integrity, particularly in the context of administration of justice, became a precondition for accession to the European Union. Given this practical challenge the present volume is centered around three key areas of institutional integrity, primarily within the administration of justice: First, in a broader theoretical-interdisciplinary context the criteria of institutional independence are discussed. The second major issue is the relation of neutralized institutions to branches of government with reference to accountability. Thirdly, comparative experience regarding judicial independence is discussed to determine techniques to enhance integrity.

America's Role in Nation-Building
Author: James Dobbins
Publisher: Rand Corporation
ISBN: 0833034863
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
The post-World War II occupations of Germany and Japan set standards for postconflict nation-building that have not since been matched. Only in recent years has the United States has felt the need to participate in similar transformations, but it is now facing one of the most challenging prospects since the 1940s: Iraq. The authors review seven case studies--Germany, Japan, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan--and seek lessons about what worked well and what did not. Then, they examine the Iraq situation in light of these lessons. Success in Iraq will require an extensive commitment of financial, military, and political resources for a long time. The United States cannot afford to contemplate early exit strategies and cannot afford to leave the job half completed.
