Humanitarianism

This book traces the events and trends that defined modern humanitarianism, from the eighteenth century up to the present day. It describes the origins of international humanitarian action, the development of major humanitarian organizations and movements, the evolution of international humanitarian law, and the expansion of the international humanitarian sector.

Disanimality

Disanimality explores different ways of thinking about people with disabilities or chronic and terminal illnesses in relation to animals and advocacy for animal rights. The juxtaposition of disability, illness, and animality can be uncomfortable for many disability advocates, particularly if the suggestion is that the mistreatment of animals is somehow just like the mistreatment of people with disabilities.

Living Just Enough for the City

Living Just Enough for the City develops an urban political theory by asking "where are we?" and "where should we be going?". By using the city as both a site for theorising and a focal point it reconstructs key concepts in political theory and provides important insights into contemporary political life.
