Governing Security investigates the surprising history of two major federal agencies that touch the lives of Americans every day: the Roosevelt-era Federal Security Agency––which eventually became today's Department of Health and Human Services––and the more recently created Department of Homeland Security. By describing the legal, political, and institutional history of both organizations, Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar offers a compelling account of crucial developments affecting the basic architecture of our nation. He shows how Americans end up choosing security goals not through an elaborate technical process, but in lively and overlapping settings involving conflict over statutory programs, agency autonomy, presidential power, and priorities for domestic and international risk regulation. Ultimately, as Cuéllar shows, ongoing fights about the scope of national security reshape the very structure of government and the intricate process through which statutes and regulations are implemented, particularly during––or in anticipation of––a national crisis.

"Public services, especially in urban areas, are a pressing concern. Following India's landmark constitutional amendment in 1992-93, it was expected that local governments would be more able, responsive and accountable, and public service delivery more effective. Both scholarly and other approaches emphasise two routes for this - formal architecture of decentralisation (laws) and people's participation. However, a quarter century later, both everyday experience and literature suggest that local accountability is low and service delivery is poor despite the presence of a legal framework and people's participation. Why is this the case? This book provides an answer by opening up the 'black box of local governance' through studying specifics of administrative procedures, organisational structure, staffing, and interactions with other levels of government. In these seemingly stodgy contents of the government black box, the book locates the explanation of how and why some city governments can effectively deliver services and others cannot. It examines the various aspects of city governments as "decentralised capacity" and traces differences in local service delivery - street lighting, water supply, sewerage, drainage, roads, and other services - to differences in decentralised capacity. It makes the argument through a comparative study of states with city governments as units of analysis (23 city governments in the three states of Gujarat, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu). The work looks closely at subnational variation and uses the comparative approach both for structuring the empirical material well as for theorisation. Specifically, it finds that while there is considerable interstate variation in capacity of city government and decentralised service delivery, there is far less intrastate variation on these matters. Methodologically, this enables the analysis to locate the larger explanation within a framework of state-local political and administrative relations. It explores details of the "policy process" from national legislative intent (constitutional amendment) to accompanying state laws to administrative rules for organising government. It also examines the designing of policy instruments against potential "policy drift" through which implementation is at odds with original intent"--

The oil and gas industry’s wide international exposure and constantly changing landscape leave it particularly vulnerable to disputes. As this practical book demonstrates, the risks associated with disputes can be mitigated by parties utilising governing law and dispute resolution clauses in contractual agreements within the sector. Examining a global range of jurisdictions, the book offers clear guidance on the most appropriate choice of law and choice of dispute resolution forum for oil and gas contracts, analysing the key issues and defining the legal contours involved.

Despite a growing interest in critical social and political studies of climate change, the field remains fragmented and diffuse. This is the first volume to collect this body of scholarship, providing a key reference point in the growing debate about climate change across the social sciences. The book provides a new set of insights into the ways in which climate change is creating new forms of social order, and the ways in which they are structured through the workings of rationality, power and politics. Governing the Climate is invaluable for three main audiences: social science researchers and advanced students in the field of climate change; the wider research community interested in global environmental politics and global environmental governance; and policy makers and researchers concerned more broadly with environmental politics at international, national and local levels.
