About the Book and Editors

STUDIES ON A JUST WORLD ORDER

Volume 1: Toward a Just World Order
edited by Richard Falk, Samuel S. Kim, and Saul H. Mendlovitz

This text is designed to provide students with a solid theoretical and methodological base for understanding how the present international system works, how that system is likely to evolve given current world trends, and what realistically can be done to alleviate the most serious global problems.

applies the world order perspective to major problem areas: militarism and war, poverty, economic underdevelopment, denial of human rights, and ecological decay. The final part explores the nature of global change, how it is likely to occur in the future, and how it is possible to realize the world order values of peace, economic well-being, and sound ecological balance.

Intended for use as a basic text in world order, peace studies, and global issues courses and as a supplementary text in international relations, international organization, and modern history, this collection encourages students to assess their own value positions and the value implications of their own governments' policies and also to look beyond local and national concerns. The seminal articles and original essays make it a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and libraries as well.

Richard Falk is Albert G. Milbank Professor of International Law and Practice at Princeton University and director of U.S. participation in the World Order Models Project (WOMP). Samuel S. Kim is professor of political science at Monmouth College and senior fellow at the Institute for World Order. Saul H. Mendlovitz is professor of international law at Rutgers University-Newark, Ira D. Wallach Professor of World Order Studies in the Institute of War and Peace Studies at Columbia University, and director of WOMP for the Institute for World Order.

TOWARD A JUST WORLD ORDER

This volume of readings unabashedly sets forth a just world order approach to the study of international politics. Such an approach is concerned with understanding the extent to which past, present, and future arrangements of power and authority are able to realize a set of human valuesincluding peace, economic well-being, social justice, and ecological balance-for people throughout the globe. At the same time, its primary intention is to sharpen understanding of what is really happening rather than to specify solutions prematurely. At the heart of this particular orientation are two sets of preoccupations: What should we fear ? What can we hope ? The responses set forth here are guided by our understanding of world order realism.

This outlook needs to be explained. More conventional students of international politics often deride the world order approach we present here as "idealistic" or "utopian." We do not want to strike a defensive note, but we ask the reader to assess our effort by reference to what he or she regards as "real" and "desirable." Our intention is to provide alternative-and we believe more realistic-tools for understanding the main international challenges and problems as well as to give a clear sense of what might be achieved by way of positive response to the human predicament.

Of course, the prospects of positive global change do not seem very bright at the moment. The arms race deepens and spreads, conflicts over scarce resources pose increasing dangers of general war, world economic stagnancy breeds more nationalistic policies, revolutionary turbulence and transnational terrorism abound, environmental quality continues to erode, impoverished populations continue to expand, water and land are alarmingly scarce in many parts of the world, and constructive negotiations of global issues are in abeyance. Governments are not well attuned to this emergent agenda of world order problems. Instead, their emphasis remains what it has been by tradition: building up national defenses and alliances and confronting the immediate economic challenges.
