In Manne van die Bybel bied Jim George in 113 dagstukkies ’n Bybelse perspektief op 83 manne in die Bybel. Uit hulle lewens kan ons iets leer van God se liefde, genade en bemoeienis met mense.

Hedendaagse mans sal bemoedig en versterk word deur manne soos:

• Daniël wat gekies het om elke dag te bid
• Nehemia wat ander kon inspireer
• Jesaja wat gewillig was om te dien
• Paulus wat ten spyte van baie teëspoed getrou gebly het
• Jesus wat die volmaakte voorbeeld van 'n dienaar is

Jim George wys in Manne van die Bybel dat ons selfs uit die lewens van manne wat gestruikel het of ontrou was, meer bewus kan word van God se vergifnis, getrouheid en heiligheid.

An Introduction to International Relations is a comprehensive introduction to the history, theories, developments and debates that shape the dynamic discipline of international relations and contemporary world politics. Bringing together an expert author team comprising leading academics from Australia and around the world, it allows readers to explore the discipline from both Australian and global perspectives. Known for its clear, easy-to-read style and relevant, real-world examples, the text has been fully updated and revised to reflect current research and the changing global political climate. This edition features extensive new material on: international history from World War I to World War II; international law; the globalisation of international society; and terrorism. A companion website for instructors offers additional case studies, critical thinking questions and links to relevant video and web materials that bring international relations theory to life.

Combining theory with compelling case studies, this book examines the globalizing world of democracy. Noted critical scholars Stephen J. Rosow and Jim George argue that democracy must be understood not as a unified concept but as a diversity of political responses to specific conditions and political struggles. Doing so reveals how democracy is taking multiple forms around the world in response to neoliberal globalism and the increasing pace and complexity of everyday life. The authors show how the current phase of globalization is destabilizing the dominance of Western democracy promotion as resisters challenge common understandings and forms of democracy. Explaining the theory behind neoliberal globalization and democracy promotion, they consider its impact and struggles against it in South Africa, post-Soviet Russia, India, and Venezuela and other "pink tide" states in Latin America. Rosow and George also examine how digital communications networks, the centralization of security, and the fluid movements of people and ideas are destabilizing traditional democratic theories. At the same time, they give rise to concepts of democracy that focus on new forms of citizenship and democratic participation, a cosmopolitan democratic constitutionalism, cross-boundary political activism, and local and community-based economic and democratic practices.
