"This book explores the foreign policy of the world's foremost military coalition towards the world's principal crisis; it analyses the discursive war of position that has taken place across the Anglosphere, which helped to sell war and peace in Syria. In its first half, the book considers the domestic situation in Syria, the role and history of the Anglosphere, and the importance of language for foreign policy's possibility. In the second half, the book analyses the foreign policy debates that have taken place within the Anglosphere coalition - the US, UK and Australia - since the onset of the Syrian Civil War in 2011. This analysis is structured chronologically in four phases, as the Syrian crisis evolved from a battle for democracy and human rights (2011-), through chemical weapons concerns (2012-), and counter-terrorism (2014-), to proxy war (2015-). The book argues that Anglosphere foreign policy ultimately perpetuated the Syrian Civil War through the production of an ends-means gap.

This treatise investigates the emergence of the early modern law of nations, focusing on Alberico Gentili’s contribution to the same. A religious refugee and Regius Professor at the University of Oxford, Alberico Gentili (1552–1608) lived in difficult times of religious wars and political persecution. He discussed issues that were topical in his lifetime and remain so today, including the clash of civilizations, the conduct of war, and the maintenance of peace. His idealism and political pragmatism constitute the principal reasons for the continued interest in his work. Gentili’s work is important for historical record, but also for better analysing and critically assessing the origins of international law and its current developments, as well as for elaborating its future trajectories.

How have professional communicators transformed the business of politics? How do political bodies use the media to sell domestic and foreign policies to the public? This fully revised new edition of The Media and Political Process assesses the impact of spin doctoring and media activity in liberal democracies that are just as concerned with impression management and public relations as with policy. Political processes never stand still, and this revised second edition explores the mediatisation of the political process in light of recent developments, from Vladimir Putin's growth into a political celebrity, to the activities of spin doctors in the 2008 US Presidential Elections. Providing a comprehensive overview of the evolution, operation and terminology of political communication, this text is an accessible, lively resource for students of political communication and media and politics, and will be important further reading for students of journalism, public relations and cultural studies.

'The post-Cold War era is characterised by shifting patterns of war and peace. The new demands and challenges facing external actors, such as international peacekeeping forces and mediators, are therefore manifold.In War and Peace in transition the authors address some of the critical and transformative issues in war and peacemaking, such as the roles of private military security companies and the use of force in peace support operations. The authors discuss how states, organisations and individuals contribute to conflict resolution. Another focus is the challenge of coordinating various peacemaking efforts.The contributors-scholars in the field of Peace and Conflict Research-take a systematic approach to analysing som of these transient aspects of war and peace with empirical cases ranging from Iraq, Israel-Palestine, Sri Lanka to the Armenian genocide.'
