Babb, University of Tokyo, Japan Acclaim for the first edition: ‘This is an amazing book. It is a wideranging and often fairly detailed survey of political thought around the world that genuinely takes a global standpoint. It is not that the Western tradition is front and center and then occasionally other views enter; the author engages with the various traditions on their own terms and puts them side by side. There is no book out there that is remotely like this. The fields of political theory and political philosophy will benefit enormously from having this book available.’ – Mathias Risse, Harvard University, US March 2024 c 608 pp Hardback 978 1 0353 2094 3 c £155.00 / c $225.00 March 2024 Paperback 978 1 0353 2096 7 c £49.00 / c $68.00 TEXT Creative Social Policy The Collective Emancipation of Human Potential Johannes Kananen, University of Turku, Finland ‘This book offers an imaginative new direction for social policy, intended to further human interests at the social rather than the individual level.’ – Peter Taylor-Gooby, University of Kent, UK Feb 2024 192 pp Hardback 978 1 0353 2139 1 £80.00 / $115.00 eBook • Elgaronline The Unmaking of Special Rights Differential Treatment of Developing Countries in Times of Global Power Shifts Klaus Dingwerth, University of St.Gallen, Switzerland, Clara Weinhardt, Maastricht University, the Netherlands, Julian Eckl, University of St.Gallen, Switzerland, Till Schöfer, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany and Simon Herr, University of St.Gallen, Switzerland ‘A fascinating analysis of a core conflict in global governance today – the battle over special treatment for developing countries amid the rise of major economic powers from the Global South.

It deftly synthesizes a vast literature while opening up fresh vistas of understanding, balancing general lessons with complicated details. The result is a rich, broad-spectrum portrait of Commons that includes a history of land ownership, contemporary case studies, and attention to the micro-social dynamics of commoning, as well as critical lessons (and limitations) of Ostrom’s Commons research, anarchism, political ecology, and Marxism.
