From American involvement in Iraq to post-apartheid South Africa,
the issue of public participation in foreign policy has gained
considerable prominence in the last decade. The recent WikiLeaks
campaign has brought the issue to the forefront of public opinion
by dispelling the veil of secrecy behind which politics once hid.
The public is becoming increasingly immersed in the political
landscape, and widespread opposition to both the war in Iraq and
the financial cuts suggests that the people are rediscovering their
political voice. Bringing together a range of opinions from
academia, government, think tanks, non-governmental organizations,
trade unions and business, this book raises potent questions about
the role of the public in shaping foreign policy. It explores the
breakdown of the boundaries between the public domain and the
government and argues that there is a still a long way to go before
public opinion will have the power to alter foreign policy.
Experts from academia, governments, think tanks, NGOs, trade
unions, and business investigate whether the public should play a
greater role in foreign policy making by analysing their current
role in the Iraq war (USA), Post-Apartheid (South Africa), trade
relations with China (New Zealand) and other cases.
This is an inside-out perspective of Christian perfection that
attempts to integrate the inward and outward dimensions of
holiness. At the same time, it seeks to place the emphasis on
internal attitudes of the heart primarily demonstrated through love
as foundational to holiness. However, there also exists a
reciprocal relationship between the two in that external holiness
serves to help validate inward holiness. The title is derived from
Wesley's emphasis on rightness in his explication of Christian
perfection- right heart, right thinking, right words and works.
