Eric Packer is a twenty-eight-year-old multi-billionaire asset manager. We join him on what will become a particularly eventful April day in turn-of-the-twenty-first-century Manhattan. He's on a personal odyssey, to get a haircut. Sitting in his stretch limousine as it moves across town, he finds the city at a virtual standstill because the President is visiting, a rapper's funeral is proceeding, and a violent protest is being staged in Times Square by anti-globalist groups. Most worryingly, Eric's bodyguards are concerned that he may be a target . . . An electrifying study in affectlessness, infused with deep cynicism and measured detachment; a harsh indictment of the life-denying tendencies of capitalism; as brutal a dissection of the American dream as Wolfe's Bonfire or Ellis's Psycho, Don DeLillo's Cosmopolis is a caustic prophecy all too quickly realized.

This is the first volume in a two-volume work contrasting two alternative world orders and assessing their comparative strengths and weaknesses and the chances for, and obstacles to, gradually moving from one to the other. Often referred to as the Westphalian system, it may briefly be described as an order of sovereign states, recognising each other as such and as a consequence thereof obliging themselves to not interfere in the internal affairs of each other. This volume is devoted to the darker sides of Westphalia commencing with wars and ending with genocide and other forms of crimes against humanity. As openly acknowledged by Hedley Bull, the fact that the Westphalian world system may thus enhance âe~orderâe(tm) does not automatically ensure justice or other human desiderata such as human rights, prosperity or personal security. While the Westphalian order did provide a growing body of international law regulating the conduct of war and limiting the right of states to go to war, as history has shown, these regulations have neither prevented wars nor really succeeded in tempering their conduct. The protective legal walls of the sovereignty/non-intervention norm have often allowed incumbent regimes to ruthlessly exploit and terrorise their own citizens. Proposals for a âe~sovereignty of responsibilityâe(tm) as an alternative to unlimited sovereign rights, whilst compatible with Westphalian rules, is better treated as modest steps away from Westphalia towards an alternative world order. A transference of responsibility elsewhere either to another state or world organisation, brings us to a more just and cosmopolitan order, the subject of the second volume.

Excerpt from Cosmopolis, Vol. 1 Trouvait lui-meme. Vingt-trois ans avaient suffi pour faire, des deux soldats passionnes, deux ma maques inoffensifs et dont l'un vendait de vieux volumes a l'autre Et voila encore une figure comme vous n'en trouverez guere ailleurs, que celle de ce gentilhomme francais, retire ici pour y mourir plus pres de saint-pierre. Croiriez-vous meme, a le voir chausse de grosses bottes, vetu d'une jaquette toute simple, un peu rapee, le chapeau rond coif fant sa vieille tete grisonnante, que, vous avez devant vous un des celebres elegants du Paris de 1864? Ecoutez cette autre histoire des scru' pules de devotion survenus a la suite d'une maladie mortelle jeterent tout d'un coup l'habitue du Cafe Anglais et des joyeux soupers d'alors dans les rangs de ces zouaves pontificaux. Un premier sejour a Rome durant les quatre dernieres annees du gou vernement de Pie IX, dans cette ville incompa rable a qui le pressentiment de la fin prochaine d'un Etat seculaire, l'approche du concile et l'occupa tion francaise donnaient encore un caractere plus particulier, fut un enchantement. Les germes latents de piete deposes dans le gentilhomme par l'education des Jesuites de Brugelette acheverent de re eurir, pour une moisson de nobles vertus aux jours d'epreuve. Ils vinrent trop vite. Montfanon fit la campagne de France avec les autres zouaves, et la manche vide qui se replie a la place de son bras gauche atteste avec quel courage il se battit a Patay, lors de cette charge heroique ou le general de Sonis fit deployer la banniere du sacre-coeur.

For hundreds of years until the 1900s, in today’s China, Japan, North and South Korea, and Vietnam, literati of Classical Chinese or Literary Sinitic (wényán 文言) could communicate in writing interactively, despite not speaking each other’s languages. This book outlines the historical background of, and the material conditions that led to, widespread literacy development in premodern and early modern East Asia, where reading and writing for formal purposes was conducted in Literary Sinitic. To exemplify how ‘silent conversation’ or ‘brush-assisted conversation’ is possible through writing-mediated brushed interaction, synchronously face-to-face, this book presents contextualized examples from recurrent contexts involving (i) boat drifters; (ii) traveling literati; and (iii) diplo- matic envoys. Where profound knowledge of classical canons and literary works in Sinitic was a shared attribute of the brush-talkers concerned, their brush-talk would characteristically be intertwined with poetic improvisation. Being the first monograph in English to address this fascinating lingua-cultural practice and cross-border communication phenomenon, which was possibly sui generis in Sinographic East Asia, it will be of interest to students of not only East Asian languages and linguistics, history, international relations, and diplomacy, but also (historical) pragmatics, sociolinguistics, sociology of language, scripts and writing systems, and cultural and linguistic anthropology.
