How should we respond to the emergence of the United States as the military, commercial, and cultural centre of a global empire? How can we elaborate a global rule of law based on equality and democracy when the world's most powerful polity acknowledges no higher authority in the international arena than its own domestic priorities? For Hall the answer lies in the concept of the Fourth World, an inclusive intellectual tent covering a wide range of movements whose leaders seek to implement alternative views of globalization. Larger than any earlier political movement, the Fourth World embraces basic principles that include the inherent rights of self-determination and a more just approach to the crafting and enforcement of international law.McGill-Queen's native and northern series ;34.Indians of North AmericaGovernment relationsAmericaCivilizationEuropean influencesIndians of North AmericaGovernment relations.970.004/97Hall Tony1951-1594051MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910821628703321The American empire and the fourth world3914451UNINA
