Asian perspectives on the European experience of regionalism / Pettman, Ralph   Journal Article
Pettman, Ralph Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract How have European state-makers managed to coordinate various key activities to the point where many of them see the European Union as providing a model for the rest of the world in general and Asia in particular? For example, most of Europe now shares a common market and a common currency. This was originally considered unthinkable. However, most European state-makers did surrender significant aspects of their sovereign power to make this happen. State-makers in the Asian region have not yet followed suit. This tells us something about their competing politico-strategic, economic and social concerns. Asian state-makers are nonetheless capable of sustaining their own form of regionalism. This tells us something about the different politico-cultural context in which they live. This context makes it possible to promote distinctly 'Asian' perspectives. It provides an Asian alternative to European regionalism and a way of compensating for the limits and distortions of the European Union.

Human security as global security: reconceptualising strategic studies / Pettman, Ralph Apr 2005  Journal Article
Pettman, Ralph Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Apr 2005.
Summary/Abstract The article argues that global security should be seen as synonymous with human security, and that strategic studies should be located within that broader rubric. Mounting such an argument means meeting the charge of those who see the broader construction of strategic studies as vague and meaningless, and as detracting from the ability to make good policy. The article attempts, therefore, to map human security in as inclusive and systematic a way as possible. It attempts to show that the concept is neither vague nor meaningless, and is suitable, therefore, to be the basis for a comprehensive account of global security.

Power and morality: a misleading dichotomy / Pettman, Ralph   Journal Article
Pettman, Ralph Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract This article critically addresses E H Carr's dichotomy of power and morality by demonstrating that all analytical languages used to articulate world affairs systematically refer to both power and morality, albeit in a different manner. The distinction between the two concepts is an analytical one, rather than a dichotomy of the kind that Carr constructs. Although Carr's dichotomy has recently resurfaced as a distinction between 'communitarianism' and 'cosmopolitanism', such an interpretation of his work remains problematic. This is demonstrated through a case study of President Jimmy Carter-whose policies manifest both realist and liberal approaches and combine power-centred concerns with moralistic ones. Therefore, in practical world affairs, there is no power-morality dichotomy; there are only different accounts of what both power and morality entail.

Psychopathology and world politics / Pettman, Ralph   Journal Article
Pettman, Ralph Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract The relationship between psychopathology and world politics can be considered firstly from the world politics perspective. This means examining the dysfunctional forms of human behaviour manifest there-both individual and collective/communal. It means examining how such behaviour can be described and explained in psychiatric or psychological/psychoanalytical terms. The relationship between psychopathology and world politics can also be considered from the psychopathology perspective. This means examining some of the key psychopathological concepts that are of relevance to world affairs. It means examining paranoia or narcissism, for example, and the way understanding syndromes like these helps further our understanding of world affairs.
