To return to a discussion of a couple of weeks ago, this is pretty cool. Obviously, tonight's double feature is a no-brainer, and ditto Treasure of the Sierra Madre (which I prefer to The Searchers), but I've actually only seen a fraction of the remaining films. So, what should my...
At the request of frequent commenter God, and because I promised to do so some time ago, here is an international relations reading list. Some of these books are accessible to.
Chris Bertram reads Perry Anderson's NLR piece on Rawls, Habermas and Bobbio on global justice so I don't have to. Looks like more loud, public axe-grinding in a peer-reviewed journal. The.
