Bøker av Paul (Birkbeck College Hirst

Future developments in war, armed conflict and international relations are central to our collective fate in this century. This book looks forward by considering the forces that will drive changes in military organizations, sources of conflict, the power of states and the nature of the international system.

In this book Paul Hirst makes a major contribution to democratic thinking, advocating "e;associative democracy"e;; the belief that human welfare and liberty are best served when as many of the affairs of society as possible are managed by voluntary and democratically self-governing associations.
