The Evolution of the South Korea–United States Alliance - Uk Heo - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Evolution of the South Korea–United States Alliance - Uk Heo - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

In contrast to previous studies of the South Korea-United States alliance, Uk Heo and Terence Roehrig analyze the bigger picture, including the history, economics, security, alliance structure, politics, and the future of the alliance. Taking alliance theory as a starting point, the authors argue that the alliance provides an ideal case study to examine how the political development and economic growth of junior partners impact an alliance. As South Korea''s capabilities and ambitions have grown, the alliance has evolved from an asymmetric regional security relationship to an economic partnership with global interests, while China''s rise and North Korea''s nuclear development mean that South Korea remains of strategic importance for American interests in East Asia. This book will be read both as a major contribution to Korean studies and the study of alliance politics and theory.

Impacts of Human Population on Wildlife - Trevor J. C. Beebee - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Impacts of Human Population on Wildlife - Trevor J. C. Beebee - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Wildlife and the countryside are highly valued by people in the UK, and for good reason. Healthy habitats are invaluable assets and promote human wellbeing. However, they are under increasing threat from, among other things, relentless urban expansion and intensive modern agriculture. These pressures largely stem from a major underlying cause – the high and growing population of humans living in the UK. This book provides an overview of wildlife in the UK and its recent status; factors contributing to wildlife declines; trends in human numbers; international deliberations about the impacts of human population growth; and the implications for the future of wildlife conservation in the UK. The evidence-based text includes comparisons of wildlife declines and their causes in other countries, providing a global perspective. This book is for ecologists, naturalists and conservation biologists studying and working in academia or in consultancies, as well as all those interested in wildlife conservation.

Liturgy, Ritual, and Secularization in Nineteenth-Century British Literature - Joseph Mcqueen - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Liturgy, Ritual, and Secularization in Nineteenth-Century British Literature - Joseph Mcqueen - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Liturgy incarnates unseen realities in concrete forms – bread, wine, water, the architectural arrangement of religious buildings. Uncovering a nineteenth-century fascination with liturgy, Joseph McQueen here shows how Romantic and Victorian writers used such forms in their work to invest ordinary material life with spiritual and ethical meaning.
