Is there a country in today's world, democratic or authoritarian, that does not deprive some portion of its population from a say in how they are governed? This is the reality of political exclusion--a dangerous social imbalance whose spectrum of response extends from frustration at one end to violence at the other. Is inclusionary governance possible? And if so, how is it to be achieved? Achieving Inclusionary Governance: Advancing Peace & Development in First & Third World Nations gives the most detailed & coherent answers to these questions yet formulated. Paupp shows that not only is inclusionary governance possible, but that the essential legal foundation is already in place; all that is required is the compliance of nations with their obligations under international human rights law, & the centuries-old, nation-state-dominated, war-oriented "balance of power" will be gone forever. Paupp's analysis is particularly valuable in its insistence that the governments of both developed (First World) & undeveloped (Third World) nations must each commit themselves to the goal of inclusionary governance: First world governments to enforcement of global & domestic human rights regimes, Third World governments to the rights of the poor & marginalized majority within the boundaries of their countries. A masterful synthesis of current international relations & social theory, human rights law, & analysis of the genuine democratic ideal, Achieving Inclusionary Governance: Advancing Peace & Development in First & Third World Nations is an essential starting point for any study or project that aims to pursue, in today's globalized environment, the democratic tradition on its historically mandated way to realizing the political, civil, & socioeconomic rights of all people.Paupp, Terrence Edward is the author of 'Achieving Inclusionary Governance Advancing Peace and Development in First and Third World Nations' with ISBN 9781571051363 and ISBN 1571051368.
