Inhaltsangabe

¿Por qué los Estados y las organizaciones de las relaciones internacionales participar en la "guerra global sobre el terrorismo? Este libro pide esta pregunta dentro de un marco amplio, explorando los mecanismos y las causas de la participación en la gobernanza mundial y teniendo combatir el terrorismo como un caso pertinente. La Asunción de Egalitarian estructuras de gobierno mundial, el autor defiende que potencia las relaciones más difíciles y el uso de energía (influencia, coacción y fuerza) desempeñan un papel más importante que previamente se sugiere. Proporciona una evaluación crítica de las políticas de lucha contra el terrorismo de EU, US y ASEAN, el libro identifica un número de las causas de la participación en la gobernanza hegemónico, incluyendo asimétrico interdependencia con la presión de nosotros, abierto y informal en el caso de la UE, y la autoridad y la legitimidad de los principales actores.

Críticas:

'Throughout the early twenty-first century, state governments have worked to develop policies and mutual understandings which advocates claim will improve their collective ability to protect themselves from terrorism. In this book, Anna Cornelia Beyer demonstrates that their efforts conform to a pattern of organisation and power relations which she describes as 'hegemonic governance'. Using data gathered from primary source documents and original interviews with recognised authorities, she contributes meaningful knowledge to several bodies of scholarly literature. In addition to this, her work also contains a useful approach to policy-oriented studies of counterterrorism.' - Dr Tom Kane, Senior Lecturer, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Hull; 'Anna Cornelia Beyer argues in this book for a 'hegemonic global governance' perspective, rather than pure unilateralism or multilateralist global governance, to explain participation in the Global War on Terrorism. In particular this is represented by unprecedented forms of cooperation in the area of counterterrorism, which may have had a transformative impact on global governance, which she successfully tests through regional case studies of the EU and ASEAN. This book finesses the relationship between power and governance, and raises a number of interesting questions. Beyer's broader ambition to inform security governance is of particular value, with interesting and helpful use of interviews with key figures in the field, in addition to those with relevant policy figures to underwrite the case studies of regional collective actors.' - Dr Hugh Dyer, Senior Lecturer, Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Leeds

Reseña del editor:

Why do states and international relations organisations participate in the 'global war on terrorism'? This book asks this question within a broad framework, exploring the mechanisms and causes for participation in global governance and taking counter terrorism as a pertinent case. Challenging the assumption of egalitarian structures of global governance, the author argues that power relations and the use of power (influence, coercion and force) play a more important role than previously suggested. Providing a critical assessment of the counter terrorism policies of EU, US and ASEAN, the book identifies a number of causes of participation in hegemonic governance, including asymmetric interdependence with the US, open and informal pressure in the case of the EU, and the authority and legitimacy of the leading actors.
