{"product_id":"revisiting-the-potential-and-limitations-yun-wang-9783639144628","title":"Revisiting the Potential and Limitations of Security Institutions","description":"Current literature on institutionalism tends to promise that as the vigor and intensity of formal institutions increase, conflicting transnational relations will decrease. However, security hot spots like Taiwan Strait show that even though the rivals are notably integrated and institutionalized, political conflicts have not eased. Nevertheless, war is absent for half a century. A possible answer to this dilemma is recognizing that there is a tacit, informal, and fragile framework of international norms that works beyond \"cheap talks.\" Tacit norms are essential for building political confidence before those who disagree can found a negotiation upon them. To identify this unspoken norm-building process, this book provides a dual- level analytical approach through ideational perspectives. This new approach highlights the critical effects of cognitive factors such as identity, ideology, and their local host, political groups in the institutionalization process. The book offers a fresh comparative view of security studies and it endeavors to inspire new ways of thinking about conflict resolution and peacemaking policies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yun Wang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639144627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639144628\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.36d","brand":"Yun Wang","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454053101823,"sku":"9783639144628","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_590c26a1-bb35-45a8-a8a5-da871799be25.jpg?v=1777303903","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/revisiting-the-potential-and-limitations-yun-wang-9783639144628","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
