{"product_id":"isolated-states-deon-geldenhuys-9780521283267","title":"Isolated States: A Comparative Analysis","description":"This book examines a largely neglected phenomenon in the field of international relations--the concept of the isolated state. Deon Geldenhuys begins by discussing how he measures both voluntary and enforced international isolation by, among other things, membership of international organizations, official visits and international censure. He then presents a number of case studies of self-isolation. The remainder of the study is devoted to an analysis of the enforced isolation of Taiwan, Israel, Chile and South Africa. Using a wealth of statistical material, he demonstrates their varying degrees of isolation in the diplomatic, military, economic and socio-cultural arenas of the international community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deon Geldenhuys\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521283264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521283267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 782\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.72d","brand":"Deon Geldenhuys","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48587634376959,"sku":"9780521283267","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/isolated-states-deon-geldenhuys-9780521283267","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
