Princeton University Press The Crime of Aggression
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Noah Weisbord has written as masterful an account of the century of legal toil dedicated to corralling the human urge to wage war as has yet found two covers . . . . Weisbord’s work is that rarest of writings on legal matters: a kind of Decameron, a thoughtfully interconnected set of what might well be abstruse concepts, but told as a series of parables, aperçus, and case studies."---Brendan Howley, Literary Review of Canada"[This] insightful book . . . offers a valuable and provocative thesis . . . . The time is ripe to align with thinkers such as Weisbord, who advance a bold step forward for the restoration of relative peace rather than descend in a hopeless spiral of endless, grievous aggression against fellow human beings."---Shelley Walia, Frontline"A remarkable insider’s account of the historical efforts to criminalize wars of aggression."---Payam Akhavan, Global Justice Journal"Weisbord’s prophetic voice . . . should be heard and attended to by any human rights organization aiming at genuine pertinency in the 2020s and beyond."---Brian Philips, Journal of Human Rights Practice"Richly textured, eminently readable. . . . Masterful. . . . Riveting. . . . Overall, the book’s engaging style and readability make it an ideal companion to a broad variety of courses in international law and international relations. It should also, in my view, be on the recommended reading list for governmental and intergovernmental lawyers, including military lawyers, who must address legal issues related to the use of force and international criminal law. The book provides an especially useful starting point for those lawyers as they begin to wrestle with the complex applications of the crime of aggression in actual practice."---Laura Dickinson, The American Journal of International Law

Princeton University Press Faith in Schools Autonomy Citizenship and
Book SynopsisTrade Review"A political scientist at Washington University in St. Louis and a native of England, where public funding of religious schools is common, MacMullen dissects the educational and political arguments for and against implementation of such a system in the United States... [MacMullen] proposes a solution he believes can satisfy both the wishes of families and the requirements of citizenship."--Education Week "MacMullen's book is an interesting read, with some significant policy implications. While the book does not necessarily win the case for adopting the author's approach, it succeeds admirably in advancing a more meaningful consideration of the goals of public education policy and whether religious instruction is incompatible with those goals."--Valerie Stoker, Journal of the American Academy of ReligionTable of ContentsAcknowledgments ix Introduction 1 PART I: Civic Education and Religious Schools 13 CHAPTER 1: The Civic Case against Religious Schools 15 The Civic Goals of Education 16 Civic Goals as the Only Goals of Public Education Policy 21 Do Religious Schools Make Good Citizens? 29 The Civic Value of Religious Schools 35 Responses and Conclusions 37 CHAPTER 2: Civic Education and the Autonomy Problem in Political Liberalism 41 Conflicting Educational Goals: Three Approaches to Resolution 41 Liberalism without Political Primacy 49 Is Autonomy a "Cost" of Civic Education? 54 Liberal Democratic Principles Presuppose the Value of Autonomy 60 Conclusion 62 PART II: Autonomy as a Public Value 65 CHAPTER 3: Autonomy, Identity, and Choice 67 Autonomy as Ongoing Rational Reflection 69 Caricatures of Rational Autonomy 73 The Nature of Autonomous Reflection 81 Conclusion 86 CHAPTER 4: The Value of Autonomy in a Pluralist World 88 John Stuart Mill, Joseph Raz, and the Intrinsic Value of Autonomy 88 Contemporary Liberal Responses to Mill: The Neutrality Condition 92 Autonomy and Moral Responsibility 93 Arguments for the Instrumental Value of Autonomy 96 The Instrumental Value of Autonomy and the Neutrality Principle 103 Conclusion 111 CHAPTER 5: Autonomy as a Goal of Education Policy: Objections and Responses 113 Parental Rights and Interests 113 "Parents Are People Too" 119 The Death Knell for Traditional Ways of Life? 124 Other Objections and Responses 129 Conclusion 136 PART III: Religious Schools and Education for Autonomy 137 CHAPTER 6: Secular Public Schools: Critiques and Responses 139 What's Wrong with Secular Education? 141 Public Control of Schools 147 Authority and Autonomy 151 Conclusion 155 CHAPTER 7: Religious Secondary Schools as Threat to Autonomy? 157 The Development of Autonomy Cannot Be Taken for Granted 157 The Autonomy Case against Religious Schools 162 Hallmarks of Permissible Religious Secondary Schools 169 Regulation and Entanglement 175 Conclusions and Policy Implications 179 CHAPTER 8: The Role of Religious Primary Schools 182 Age-Sensitive Education 182 Primary Culture and Identity 184 Reasoning within an Ethical Framework 188 Cognitive Development and Autonomous Reflection 190 Maintaining the Option of Autonomous Religious Belief 193 Hallmarks of Permissible Religious Primary Schools 197 Conclusion 202 Conclusion 205 Bibliography 221 Index 227

Princeton University Press The Europeanization of the World
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Headley flies in the face of post-1960s criticism of the West to argue that the Renaissance and the Reformation laid the groundwork for the world's present understanding of human rights and constitutional democracy... Headley offers considerable evidence for these Western contributions to pushing diverse cultures toward a new, globalized way of life... In a brief epilogue, [he] sets aside his scholarly mien to launch a devastating critique of American policies at home and abroad since 2001... A densely written defense of the Western tradition."--Kirkus Reviews "This is a provocative, compelling, and successful book that traces the culture-transcending qualities of the idea of a common humanity and political dissent in Europe... Balanced and deeply intelligent, Headley's book recasts the role of European civilization in shaping our future."--A.R. Brunello, Choice "John Headley's lucid study of the intellectual origins of human rights and democracy in the European tradition rewards the careful reader... Headley has written an excellent book, penetrating and well-written. The two sections on the United States described above arc in brief, isolated sections, and have little to do with the rest of the book. The reader stands to gain a great deal from this senior scholar's broad analysis of these distinctly European values."--John F. Kicza, Renaissance Quarterly "There is much in this book for Renaissance scholars, historical sociologists, and students of contemporary history. For the ... historically oriented sociologist, the book is an important contribution to understanding the European heritage."--Gerard Delanty, American Historical ReviewTable of ContentsList of Illustrations xi Preface xiii Introduction 1 Chapter 1: The Renaissance Defining and Engagement of the Global Arena of Humanity 9 Imperial and Global Motifs in the Advent of the New Geography 13 The Fully Habitable World for Renaissance Europe 31 Chapter 2: The Universalizing Principle and the Idea of a Common Humanity 63 The Universalizing Process: From Christendom to the Civilization of Europeans 66 The Career of Natural Rights in the Early Modern Period 103 Chapter 3: The Emergence of Politically Constituted Dissent in the European World 149 The Initial Constituting of Political Dissent: Thomas More's Horrific Vision 154 Party and Opposition in the Eighteenth-Century Anglo-American Experience 168 Aftermath 195 Epilogue 207 Notes 219 Bibliography 243 Index 269

Princeton University Press Standing Soldiers Kneeling Slaves
Book SynopsisTrade Review"In a fascinating study of public space and the less-than-public contradictions of nineteenth-century culture, Kirk Savage sheds light not only on memory and monument but also on the invention of the 'popular' itself." —Henry Louis Gates, Jr. "A richly detailed and engagingly written study." —Boston Globe "Kirk Savage shows ingenuity in his analysis and interpretation of post-war commemorative sculpture." —Times Literary Supplement"An important and innovative work that will surely gain a wide scholarly audience . . . My hope is that it will also gain the wider readership its message deserves among the civic leaders who shape public policy and the general citizenry who both inherit and build the public monuments that guide public memory. Though the story Savage traces is often a discouraging one, his message is ultimately hopeful. By understanding how we have defined our past and our present through the lasting medium of public sculpture, we can imagine how we can shape, and perhaps redeem our future." —Catherine W. Bishir, Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians "[A] tour de force." —Library Journal

Princeton University Press The Origins of Citizenship in Ancient Athens
Book SynopsisIn this unusual synthesis of political and socio-economic history, Philip Manville demonstrates that citizenship for the Athenians was not merely a legal construct but rather a complex concept that was both an institution and a mode of social behavior. He further shows that it was not static, as most scholarship has assumed, but rather has slowly evolved over time. The work is also an explanation of the origins and development of the polis.Originally published in 1990.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press sincTrade Review"There can be no questioning the value and validity of Manville's patient unravelling of the strands that...make up the close weave of classical Athenian citizenship: corporate identity, territoriality, population density, personal freedom, and landownership above all. It is one of the many strengths of Manville's quietly persuasive approach that he can deploy comparative ethnographic evidence from so-called 'primitive' states with telling sensitivity."--Paul Cartledge, The Times Literary Supplement "This book well repays the attention of anyone, whether historian, literary critic, or archaeologist, who is interested in the wider context of pre-classical Athenian society."--Gregory Crane, Bryn Mawr Classical Review "A real contribution to the perennial debate on the Athenian way of life. I would recommend it strongly to all who are also interested in the origins of our own society and our own brand of citizenship."--Harold B.

MP-KAN Uni Press of Kansas Indian Gaming and Tribal Sovereignty
Book SynopsisProviding a clear account of the laws and politics of Indian gaming, this book explains how it has become one of the most politically charged phenomena: at stake are a host of competing legal rights and political interests for tribal, state, and federal governments. This book uses examples that reflect a wide range of tribal experience.Trade Review“Light and Rand have studied the history, legalities, economics, politics, and social issues surrounding Indian casinos to produce this readable and highly informative volume. Their work, the most significant and comprehensive book on the subject to date, remarkably examines and documents from both Indian and non-Indian perspectives the wide array of concerns, public policy shifts, and sovereignty issues that have surfaced in the wake of the ever-increasing visibility of Native American casinos.

It is an impressive achievement and very readable. Charles managed to obtain related files and follow the threads in those accounts which, in turn, led him to others. A groundbreaking book, covering a topic in FBI history that has not been previously explored in any significant way.” Matthew Cecil, author of Hoover’s FBI and the Fourth Estate: The Campaign to Control the Press and the Bureau’s Image.

University of British Columbia Press Securing Borders
Book SynopsisDetention and deportation are the two most extreme sanctions of an immigration penality that polices noncitizens, identifies those deemed dangerous, diseased, deceitful, or destitute, and refuses them entry or casts them out. They play a key role in regulating national borders, citizens, and populations. But what determines whether a noncitizen is deserving or undeserving? And how have anxieties about risky outsiders and the quest for security shaped Canada's response to immigrants and refugees?Anna Pratt takes a close look at the discursive formations, transformations, and technologies of power that have surrounded the laws, policies, and practices of detention and deportation in Canada since the Second World War. She demonstrates that although the desire to fortify the border against risky outsiders has long been prominent in Canadian immigration penality, the degree to which concerns about security, crime, and fraud have come to govern the process is unprecedented.<Trade ReviewUltimately, Pratt writes convincingly of how (specific groups of) humans have become the object of management. This book also urges for research on a number of immigration management-related issues (e.g. discretion on the part of immigration officials). What I also consider a strength of the book is that it brings abundant light onto these minority ethnic groups in Canada that are relatively neglected by research … it will be invaluable for the researcher of immigration and ethnicity as well as to public official working with migrants and NGO workers. -- Georgios A. Antonopoulos, University of Durham * British Journal of Criminology Advance Access *Pratt’s book provides a complete and lucid analysis of the darker side of immigration policies in Canada. It maintains balance between a theoretical framework, historical backgrounders and practical illustrations, as well as between law and social science insights which will make reading accessible to a larger audience…It is, arguably the most complete and up-to-date Canadian book on detention and deportation. -- Sophie Dorais, McGill University * Canadian Journal of Law and Society, vol. 21, no. 1, 2006 *This book goes a long way to render visible the material conditions and tangible practices of the detention and deportation of undeserving and undesirable non-citizens, who are essentially being criminalized for the mere act of migration. -- Harsha Walia * The Rain Review of Books, Issue 4:1, Winter 2006 *Anna Pratt, a sociologist who teaches criminology, examines an important aspect of Canada’s refugee policy – detention and deportation – from the perspective of human rights and social justice. She sees larger a pattern in connections between the federal government’s immigration and refugee policies, public concerns about crime and welfare fraud, media reporting on immigrant communities such as Toronto’s Somalis, and the trend towards neo-liberalism. -- Greg Marquis, University of New Brunswick * Law and Politics Review, Vol. 16, No.3 *Table of Contents1 Overview and Orientations2 Detention at the Celebrity Inn3 Reframing Discretion4 From Purity to Security5 Floods and Frauds6 Risky Refugees7 Discretion, Dangerousness, and National Security8 Criminals First9 Risk-Smart Borders10 ConclusionAppendix:NotesBibliographyIndex

University of British Columbia Press Reaction and Resistance
Book SynopsisThe image of backlash is pervasive in contemporary debates about the impact of second-wave feminism on law and policy. But does it really explain the resistance to feminist initiatives for social change in contemporary culture?In this timely volume, contributors from various disciplines analyze reaction and resistance to feminism in several areas of law and policy child custody, child poverty, sexual harassment, and sexual assault and in a number of institutional sites, such as courts, legislatures, families, the mainstream media, and the academy. Collectively, their studies paint a more complicated, often contradictory, picture of feminism, law, and social change than the popular image of backlash suggests.Reaction and Resistance offers feminists and other activists empirically grounded knowledge that can be used to develop legal and political strategies for change.Trade ReviewReaction and Resistance adds to the extant critical and feminist theorizing about the workings of social movements and counter-movements. Their research provides empirically grounded knowledge that feminists and other social activists can draw on in developing new legal and political strategies…. The contributors, taken together, bring an interdisciplinary, historically informed approach to the analysis of feminism, law, and social change. The chapters provide exemplars of the complete range of issues that feminists have addressed. They build on and expand the existing work and synthesize knowledge about the dynamics and impacts of feminist social movements. -- SirReadaLot, February 2008This text provides an analysis of the resistance to feminism evident in the Courts, government, media and academia.

University of British Columbia Press The Politics of Acknowledgement
Book SynopsisHuman rights violations leave deep scars on people, societies, and nations. Since the early 1990s, international rights groups have argued that resolving the violence of the past through instruments of transitional justice such as truth commissions is a necessary condition for a peaceful future. But how can nations ensure that these tribunals are the best path to reconciliation?The Politics of Acknowledgement develops a theoretical framework of acknowledgement with which to evaluate truth commissions. Rather than applying this framework to successful tribunals, Joanna Quinn uses it to analyze the difficulties encountered and the ultimate failure of two poorly understood truth commissions in Uganda and Haiti. The failure of these commissions reveals that if reconciliation is to be achieved, acknowledgement of past violence and harm by both victims and perpetrators must come before goals such as forgiveness, social trust, civic engagement, and social cohesion.Table of Contents1 IntroductionPart 1: Theoretical Model2 The Politics of Acknowledgement3 Truth Commissions4 The Truth Commissions of Uganda and HaitiPart 2: Analysis: Parallels between the Ugandan and Haitian Cases5 Political Will6 Institutional Constraints7 Whither Acknowledgement?8 Social Underpinnings9 Acknowledgement: A New Lens for EvaluationAppendicesNotesBibliographyIndex

University of British Columbia Press In Defence of Principles
Book SynopsisSince 9/11 and the onset of the war on terror, the principal challenge confronting liberal democracies has been to balance freedom with security and individual with collective rights. In Defence of Principles sheds new light on the evolution of human rights norms in liberal democracies by charting the activism of four Canadian NGOs on issues of refugee rights, hate speech, and the death penalty, including their use of difficult, often controversial legal cases as platforms to assert human rights principles and shape judicial policy-making.Although human rights principles are often spoken of in absolute terms, this book reminds us that they are never certain even in countries that have a vibrant civil society, a long tradition of rule of law, and a judiciary that possesses the constitutional authority to engage in judicial review. The struggles of these NGOs reveal not only the fragility but also the resilience of ideas about rights in liberal democracies.Trade ReviewIn Defence of Principles is a comprehensive survey of three groundbreaking Charter cases and the NGOs that plunged into the heart of these controversies. Thompson’s book ultimately reminds readers of the fragility of NGOs’ gains in the field of human rights, as the experiences of AI Canada in Kindler and of the CCC in Singh both show. Thompson’s work also describes how NGO intervention is not without its costs. The CCLA and AI Canada, for instance, paid a substantial price in the form of adverse publicity and decreased donations, respectively, for being seen to side with odious individuals (whether a virulent racist or two violent criminals). In spite of these setbacks, the persistence of Singh, Keegstra, and Kindler in current debates on refugees, free expression, and capital punishment remains a legacy of the intervention and bold ideas of Canada’s NGOs. -- Stephen Hsia * Osgoode Hall Law Journal Vol 49, No 2 *This is a well-crafted, subtle, and highly relevant though specialized contribution to human rights and security.

University of British Columbia Press Contemporary Slavery
Book SynopsisContemporary slavery has recently and unexpectedly emerged as a source of both popular fascination and a spur to political mobilization. This volume brings together a cast of leading experts to carefully explore how the history and iconography of slavery has been invoked to support a series of government interventions, activist projects, legal instruments, and rhetorical and visual performances. However well-intentioned these interventions might be, they nonetheless remain subject to a host of limitations and complications. Recent efforts to combat contemporary slavery are too often sensationalist, self-serving, and superficial; and therefore end up failing the crucial test of speaking truth to power. The widely held notion that anti-slavery is one of those rare issues that transcends politics or ideology is only sustainable because the underlying issues at stake have been constructed and demarcated in a way that minimizes direct challenges to dominant political and economic Trade ReviewContemporary Slavery is a must-read for every academic, practitioner, and activist working in the field of slavery and human trafficking… Each of the chapters provides a new perspective, and the strongest impact is gained by just this: the holistic, diverse representation of observations, analysis, and research ... this book is an invaluable compilation of thoughtful, nuanced chapters, which build a case for more careful academic engagement with the language of slavery. -- Journal of Human Trafficking * Nandor Kunst & Kurttuli Lingenfelter *
