• Sommario/riassunto: The idea of building a blueprint ‘rule of law’ through military intervention has seized the imagination of practitioners and theorists alike in the past decade of peacebuilding operations, and an emphasis on simultaneous judicial reconstruction and security sector reform has emerged as their central strategy. This work, in a fresh approach based ; on recent military operations in Iraq and beyond, challenges both the universality of the blueprint and the doctrinal assumption that institutional reform by military interveners builds peace and legitimacy. In a comprehensive review, the essential role of the community in developing its own relationship with law, while interveners refocus exclusively on restoring public security using their extraordinary powers under international humanitarian law, emerges as the only future for ‘rule of law operations.’

• Sommario/riassunto: La historia del imperialismo comienza en Asiria. Tal es la tesis argumentada en este libro, que reconstruye la ideología imperial asiria, matriz de la organización política, administrativa, religiosa y cultural de ; uno de los reinos, luego imperio, más paradigmáticos de las civilizaciones mesopotámicas antiguas. No se trata de establecer ingenuos primados, sino de investigar las formas simples del imperialismo, de esa «misión imperial» que Asiria encarna de un modo más directo y explícito que las complejas y sofisticadas ideologías posteriores. El caso asirio puede contribuir así a una mejor comprensión del fenómeno histórico del imperialismo que, mediante el estudio comparativo de sus distintas formaciones, deduce ideas y problemáticas, parecidos y divergencias.
