Conserving Europe's Wildlife Law and Policy of the Natura 2000 Network of Protected Areas

Conserving Europe's Wildlife Law and Policy of the Natura 2000 Network of Protected Areas

The Natura 2000 network of protected areas is the centrepiece of European Union nature policy currently covering almost one-fifth of the EU’s entire land territory plus large marine areas. This vast EU-wide network which aims to conserve Europe’s most valuable and threatened species and habitats has major impacts on land use throughout all Member States of the EU. This book critically assesses the origins and implementation of the Natura 2000 network established under the Birds Directive of 1979 and the Habitats Directive of 1992. Based on original archival research and interviews with key participants the book records a detailed history of the origins and negotiation of Natura 2000 policy and law with the history of EU environmental policy provided as a framework. An historical institutionalist approach is adopted which emphasises the importance of understanding legal and policy development as processes that unfold over time. Three phases in the history of EU environmental policy are identified and described and the history of EU nature policy is placed within the context of these three phases. Informed by this history the author presents a comprehensive summary and assessment of the law and policy that protects Natura 2000 sites at EU level and reviews the nature conservation outcomes for the targeted species and habitats. The book reveals how a knowledge of the history of Natura 2000 enriches our understanding of key issues such as conflicts in establishing and conserving the Natura 2000 network EU integration in the field of nature conservation and the future of EU nature policy. | Conserving Europe's Wildlife Law and Policy of the Natura 2000 Network of Protected Areas

Metropolis 2000 Planning Poverty and Politics

Metropolis 2000 Planning Poverty and Politics

Originally published in 1993 Metropolis 2000 analyses 20th century metropolitan development and planning under the economic and environmental conditions of the world’s regions. Attempts to achieve the physical integration of the city without economic equality have failed. The book advances the principle of ‘integrated diversity’ which emphasises linking neighbourhood planning with a broader vision of the planned metropolis and applies a political economy approach and argues for a new form of pro-urban thinking. The book argues that the basis for a humane approach to city planning is viewing the metropolis as a beneficial accompaniment to national independence equality and social progress. | Metropolis 2000 Planning Poverty and Politics

Tracing the (Post)Apartheid Novel beyond 2000 Interviews with Selected Contemporary South African Authors

Tracing the (Post)Apartheid Novel beyond 2000 Interviews with Selected Contemporary South African Authors

This anthology comprises of interviews with contemporary South African authors offering vignettes of their lives and summaries of their works. In curating this book Danyela Demir and Olivier Moreillon step beyond pure literary theory and analysis. They welcome the authors to speak and assess the literary panorama in which they live and co-create. However Demir and Moreillon also trace concepts and terms that describe the current South African literature such as post-transitional literature and literature beyond 2000. By adopting a world-literary approach to (post)apartheid literature this book contributes to debates on contemporary South African writing. In addition Tracing the (Post)Apartheid Novel Beyond 2000 seeks to raise awareness of the imbalance in both critical and public attention between literary ‘big names’ such as André P. Brink J. M. Coetzee Nadine Gordimer and Zakes Mda who are popular worldwide and the younger and newer generation of South African writers who go largely unnoticed.

Legal Accountability and Britain's Wars 2000-2015

Legal Accountability and Britain's Wars 2000-2015

This book discusses the manner in which Britain’s wars which took place between 2000 and 2015 have interacted with the relevant principles of international law and English law for the purpose primarily of considering legal accountability. During a debate in the House of Lords in 2005 a former Chief of the Defence Staff commented that ‘the Armed Forces are under legal siege. ’ The book will discuss the major legal issues which have arisen ranging from the various votes in Parliament to go to war the constitutional relationship between ministers and senior commanders the right under international law to use force the influence of human rights law the role of the courts in England (including the coroners’ courts) to the legal regime applying to the conduct of UK military operations. It will assess critically whether the armed forces will now have to accept that operations conducted outside the UK are subject to greater legal scrutiny than previously and whether if this is the case it is likely to hinder their future military activities. This book will be of great interest to scholars of international law the law of armed conflict military studies and international relations as well as to those with a professional or other interest in the subject matter. | Legal Accountability and Britain's Wars 2000-2015

Ukraine's Foreign and Security Policy 1991-2000

Ukraine's Foreign and Security Policy 1991-2000

This book analyses Ukraine's relations with each of its neighbours in the 1990s. It examines the degree to which these relations fitted into Ukraine's broad objective of reorienting its key political ties from East to West and asseses the extent to which Ukraine succeeded in achieving this reorientation. It shows how in the early days of independence Ukraine fought off threats from Russia and Romania to its territorial integrity and how it made progress in establishing good relations with its western neighbours as a means of moving closer towards Central European sub-regional and European regional organisations. It also shows how the sheer breadth and depth of its economic and military ties to Russia continued to exert such a strong influence that relations with Russia dwarfed Ukraine's relations with all other neighbours resulting in a foreign and security policy which attempted to counterbalance the competing forces of East and West. | Ukraine's Foreign and Security Policy 1991-2000

Gendering Peace in Europe c. 1880–2000

Gendering Peace in Europe c. 1880–2000

This book examines the connection between notions of gender diplomacy society and peacemaking in the period c. 1880 to the mid- to late-twentieth century. The chapters in this volume place gender history at the interface with international history and international relations. They explore a wide variety of themes and issues within the British and European context especially notions of gender identity the politics and culture of women’s suffrage in the early part of the twentieth century and the role gender played in the formulation and execution of British foreign policy. The book also breaks new ground by attempting to gender diplomacy. Further it revisits the popular view that women were connected with the peace movements that grew up after the First World War because the notion of peace was associated with stereotypical female traits such as the rejection of violence and the nurturing rather than destruction of humankind. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Diplomacy and Statecraft. | Gendering Peace in Europe c. 1880–2000

Economies of Representation 1790?2000 Colonialism and Commerce

Economies of Representation 1790?2000 Colonialism and Commerce

Although postcolonialism has emerged as one of the most significant theoretical movements in literary and cultural studies it has paid scant attention to the importance of trade and trade relations to debates about culture. Focusing on the past two centuries this volume investigates the links among trade colonialism and forms of representation posing the question 'What is the historical or modern relationship between economic inequality and imperial patterns of representation and reading?' Rather than dealing exclusively with a particular industry or type of industry the contributors take up the issue of how various economies have been represented in Aboriginal art; in literature by North American Caribbean Portuguese South African First Nations Australian British and Aboriginal authors; and in a diverse range of writings that includes travel diaries missionary texts the findings of the Leprosy Investigation Commission early medical accounts and media representations of HIV/AIDS. Examining trade in commodities as various as illicit drugs liquor bananas tourism adventure fiction and modern Aboriginal art as well as cultural exchanges in politics medicine and literature the essays reflect the widespread origins of the contributors themselves who are based throughout the English-speaking world. Taken as a whole this book contests the commonplace view promoted by some modern economists-that trade in and of itself has a leveling effect equalising cultures places and peoples-demonstrating instead the ways in which commerce has created and exacerbated differences in power. | Economies of Representation 1790?2000 Colonialism and Commerce
