Power Shift: On the New Global Order
Autor Richard Falken Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 iul 2016
Our ideas about global order have yet to catch up with these new behavioral trends, including the rise of non-state transnational political actors in the context of neoliberal globalization. In this historical setting the modern territorial sovereign state is confronted by multiple challenges ranging from climate change to mass migration to transnational political extremism.
The existing global order seems currently overwhelmed by these challenges, resulting in widespread stress and chaos that is transforming global security in ways that endanger democratic governance. The future will be determined by whether the peoples of the world make their weight felt in support of sustainable global justice and overcome the impact of oppressive and exploitative patterns of corporate and state behavior. It is this problematic set of circumstances that Power Shift addresses.

Recenzii
Power Shift . is full of interesting insights and displays an impressive degree of rhetorical power. For all those who are in search of a forceful, mostly Left critique of the status quo, this book is a must-read.
Falk has brought powerful moral and legal insights to debates about order and justice in world politics.
Richard Falk is always ahead in identifying the perils of our time. Emerging but neglected issues are here addressed with passion and rationality.
These elegantly written and erudite essays expose the myopic and embedded character of geopolitical and statist framings and, at the same time, identify openings for a different kind of future offered by the citizen pilgrim. The critique of drone warfare and how it undermines international law is particularly devastating.
Eloquently written by the world's leading international lawyer, Richard Falk's new book is an absolute must read for anyone seeking to understand power shifts in the world order and our human condition in the early twenty-first century.
Original, eloquent, challenging and hopeful, Richard Falk is always worth reading.
