Cover Awaking Europe in the Triple Global Crisis
Awaking Europe in the Triple Global Crisis
The Birth Pangs of the Emerging Europe

Placing the triple crisis in the context of EU, European and global geographies, it introduces a new conceptual framework to describe continuing systemic crisis and change in the EU.

Cover Energy Cultures
Energy Cultures
Technology, Justice, and Geopolitics in Eastern Europe
Michael C. LaBelle
This thought-provoking book explores the concept of energy cultures as a means of understanding social and political relations and how energy injustices are created. Using Eastern Europe as an example, it examines the radical transition occurring as the region leaves behind the legacy of the Soviet Union, and the effects of the resulting power struggle between the energy cultures of Russia and the European Union.

A Research Agenda for Federalism Studies
Editor: John Kincaid
In this forward-thinking book, fifteen leading scholars set forth cutting-edge agendas for research on significant facets of federalism, including basic theory, comparative studies, national and subnational constitutionalism, courts, self-rule and shared rule, centralization and decentralization, nationalism and diversity, conflict resolution, gender equity, and federalism challenges in Africa, Asia, and the European Union.

Cover The Dynamics of Regional Migration Governance
The Dynamics of Regional Migration Governance
Editors: Andrew Geddes, Marcia Vera Espinoza, Leila Hadj Abdou, and Leiza Brumat
This book analyses the dynamics of regional migration governance and accounts for why, how and with what effects states cooperate with each other in diverse forms of regional grouping on aspects of international migration, displacement and mobility. The book develops a framework for analysis of comparative regional migration governance to support a distinct and truly global approach accounting for developments in Africa, Asia-Pacific, Central Asia, Europe, the Middle East, North America and South America and the many and varying forms that regional arrangements can take in these regions.

Cover De-Centering State Making
De-Centering State Making
Comparative and International Perspectives
Editors: Jens Bartelson, Martin Hall, and Jan Teorell
Bridging the gap between international relations and comparative politics, this book transposes Eurocentric theories and narratives of state-making to new historical and geographical contexts in order to probe their scope conditions. In doing this, the authors question received explanations of the historical origins and geographical limits of state-making, questioning the unilinear view of the emergence of the modern state and the international system. Theoretically and methodologically eclectic, the volume explores a range of empirical cases not often discussed in the literature.

China's Rise and Australia–Japan–US Relations
Primacy and Leadership in East Asia
Editors: Michael Heazle and Andrew O’Neil
One of the most pressing policy challenges for Australia and Japan today is ensuring that China’s rise does not threaten the stability of the Asia-Pacific, while also avoiding triggering conflict with their largest trading partner. This book examines how Australian and Japanese perceptions of US primacy shape their respective views of the Asia-Pacific regional order, the robustness of Asia’s alliance system, and the future of Australia-Japan security cooperation.
