This book analyses the problem of harm in world politics which stems from the fact that societies require the power to harm in order to defend themselves from internal and external threats, but must also control the capacity to harm so that people cannot kill, injure, humiliate or exploit others as they please. Andrew Linklater analyses writings in moral and legal philosophy that define and classify forms of harm, and discusses the ways in which different theories of international relations suggest the power to harm can be controlled so that societies can co-exist with the minimum of violent and non-violent harm. Linklater argues for new connections between the English School study of international society and Norbert Elias' analysis of civilizing processes in order to advance the study of harm in world politics. 606 $aInternational relations$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aHarm reduction$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aInternational relations$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aHarm reduction$xPolitical aspects. 676 $a172/.4 686 $aPOL011000$2bisacsh 700 $aLinklater$b Andrew$0281422 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813384903321 996 $aThe problem of harm in world politics$94000563 997 $aUNINA
