Abstract
|
:
|
"From Power Politics to Conflict Resolution surveys John W. Burton's career, focusing on his consistent critique of a world dominated by power politics. Burton, a former career diplomat, attempted to produce a relevant, critical and practical approach to both domestic and international politics which came to be associated with the term 'provention'. David J. Dunn shows how Burton both strove to find a conceptual apparatus and voice that would address his major concerns, and how that compelling and radical approach contributes to our understanding of politics in a time of change and conflict."--Jacket.
