From the Pirate Parties in Northern Europe to Podemos in Spain and the 5-Star Movement in Italy, from the movements behind Bernie Sanders in the United States and Jeremy Corbyn in the United Kingdom, to Jean-Luc Melenchon's presidential bid in France, the last decade has witnessed the rise of a new blueprint for political...

Composition in Convergence : The Impact of New Media on Writing Assessment

Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2005

This book attempts to explore what these tensions are as writing
assessment and computer technology converge on classroom
space. However, I can make no promises that this examination of
the issues can resolve the tensions. Perhaps no amount of study can
resolve the tensions that exist. The difficulties span political,...

Inside Cyber Warfare: Mapping the Cyber Underworld

O'Reilly, 2011

I was recently invited to participate in a cyber security dinner discussion by a few members of a well-known Washington, DC, think tank. The idea was that we could enjoy a fine wine and a delicious meal while allowing our hosts to pick our brains about this “cyber warfare stuff.” It seems that the new...

Justice for Some: Law and the Question of Palestine

Cambridge University Press, 2019

Justice in the Question of Palestine is often framed as a question of law. Yet none of the Israel-Palestinian conflict's most vexing challenges have been resolved by judicial intervention. Occupation law has failed to stem Israel's settlement enterprise. Laws of war have permitted killing and destruction during Israel's...

Gender in International Relations

Columbia University Press, 1992

As a scholar and teacher of international relations, I have frequently asked myself the following questions: Why are there so few women in my discipline? If I teach the field as it is conventionally defined, why are there so few readings by women to assign to my students? Why is the subject matter of my discipline so distant from women's lived...

The Conspirators Hierarchy: The Committee of Three Hundred

Global Insights Publications, 1997

Can you imagine an all powerful group, that knows no national boundaries, above the laws of all countries, one that controls every aspect of politics, religion, commerce and industry; banking, insurance, mining, the drug trade, the petroleum industry, a group answerable to no one but its members. To the vast majority of us, such a group would...

Victorian Poetry: Poetry, Poetics and Politics (Routledge Critical History of Victorian Poetry)

Routledge, 1996

To my mind Armstrong's book makes its contribution to the study of Victorian Literature in two key ways. I expect I will return often to her very sophistocated consideration of that old chesnut, the Victorian crystallization of lyric subjectivity in a political-poetical dramaturgy of self-spectatorship. And I find an extraordinary resonance in her...
