"This book explores the economic effects of war reparations, with a focus on how sovereign debt has financed the transfers. Results have varied: from quick repayments of large reparations to catastrophic economic crises. The occurring theme across the book has been that enforcement of debt contracts has important consequences"--
"This volume tells the story of the interaction between Christianity and law-historically and today, in the traditional heartlands of Christianity and around the globe. Sixty new chapters by leading scholars provide authoritative but accessible accounts of foundational Christian teachings on law and legal thought over the past two millennia; the current interaction and contestation of law and Christianity on all continents; how Christianity shaped and was shaped by core public, private, penal, and procedural laws; various old and new forms of Christian canon law, natural law theory, and religious freedom norms; Christian teachings on fundamental principles of law, politics, and legal order; and Christian contributions to controversial legal issues. Together, the chapters make clear that Christianity and law have had a perennial and permanent influence on each other over time and across cultures, albeit with varying levels of intensity and effectiveness"--

"dear elia explores the many different kinds of unwellness that reside and proliferate among Asian Americans (and others) in the university, including pressures from immigrant families, the devaluing of critical ethnic studies and exploitation of contingent faculty, and the kinds of access and care demanded (and foreclosed) by approaches to COVID-19. Mimi Khúc offers a pedagogy of unwellness: the understanding that we are all unwell in different ways at different times, in relation to differentially disabling and enabling structures, and so we need differential care. Khúc & shows in no uncertain terms how unwellness is structural, and that being unwell is not a failure"--
"A Theory of De Facto States offers a new perspective on the phenomenon of de facto states - political communities that manifest forms of statehood in international politics but lack international legal recognition - zooming in on two prominent examples, Somaliland and Kosovo. Employing a thorough understanding of classical realist theories of international relations, this book provides a fresh critique of the common ways in which existing research tends to identify the ostensible state features of these communities. In contrast to the prevalent portrayals of such features in terms of international legal, discursive, and/or everyday logics, this book argues that de facto states can be most fundamentally characterised as exceptional polities in international relations. Showcasing how the statehood and sovereignty of de facto states is based in international political crises, this book concludes that these entities function as recurring disruptions of any supposed international political order. A Theory of De Facto States will therefore be of interest to researchers of secession, de facto statehood, and International Relations theory alike"--
"In this book, Petre Petrov argues that Soviet ideology, in the form in which it solidified during the Stalinist period, should not be seen as a member of a known political ideology. Rather, Soviet ideology is its own kind of political ideology, whose original life calls for an innovative conceptual treatment"--
