STABILITY OF STATES. THE NEXUS BETWEEN TRANSNATIONAL THREATS,GLOBALIZATION AND INTERNAL RESILIENCE
In this study, the authors contend that in our globalized world the stability of any individual state (irrespective of its size and importance) plays a critical role in the stability of the entire international system. There are multiple ways to achieve state stability, whether through western-style democracies or through other forms of good and effective governance that are in keeping with local cultures and histories. Regardless of whichever system is used, it is critical that there are certain minimal criteria of governance that are adhered to and must include human dignity, equality, and prosperity. This book contributes a timely analysis of ways to achieve and the methods required to maintain global stability and provides a valuable tool to anyone who is interested in true and lasting transnational security.ÉPUISÉVOIR PRODUIT18,00 € -

A PROPOSAL FOR INCLUSIVE PEACE AND SECURITY
In this era of globalization, a multitude of threats impact the security of populations everywhere. These threats now increasingly transgress the traditional boundaries of states and are often non-military in nature, requiring more comprehensive and multifaceted approaches and policy responses. While every threat is unique in terms of its root causes and remedies, philosophical and conceptual methods exist that offer valuable tools for analysis and potential policy recommendations for states facing such threats. This book presents in a novel way eight such approaches that - when applied against any transnational threat - may help to enhance the effectiveness of states in their pursuit of longterm and durable security.ÉPUISÉVOIR PRODUIT18,00 € -
Futuwah. Traité de chevalerie soufie
En Islam comme dans le monde chrétien médiéval, l'esprit de chevalerie était loin de se réduire à une éthique militaire. Au contraire, la futuwah, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble des traditions, coutumes et pratiques qui constituaient le code de la vie chevaleresque musulmane au Moyen Âge, s'entendait avant tout au sens spirituel et éthique. Véritable initiation, la futuwah amène l'individu à suivre la noble voie du service divin ; elle forme le sommet de la démarche soufie. Le présent livre, traduction d'un texte arabe dû à un auteur d'origine persane du Xe-XIe siècle, Abû Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Husayn al-Sulamî, est commenté par Faouzi Skali, l'un des auteurs de langue française les plus lus sur le soufisme. Futuwah fait partie de ces grands classiques de la spiritualité universelle que l'on relit sans cesse.ÉPUISÉVOIR PRODUIT8,85 €
