Are human rights enough? On human rights and inequality
In this paper I respond to the central claims presented in Samuel Moyn’s influential book, Not Enough: Human Rights in an Unequal World. Moyn argues that human rights have the following features: they are powerless to combat growing material inequality; they share key characteristics with neoliberalism; they make only minimalist or sufficientarian demands and therefore are not enough to achieve the equality demanded by justice. He suggests, in pa…

A History of English Phonology
This is an attempt to view historical phonological change as an ongoing, recurrent process. The author sees like events occurring at all periods, a phenomenon which he considers is disguised by too great a reliance upon certain characteristics of the scholarly tradition. Thus he argues that those innovations arrived at by speakers of the English language many years ago are not in principle unlike those that can be seen to be happening today. Phon…
Grammatical Gender in English
First published in 1988, this book explores the grammatical loss of gender in English. It demonstrates that from the end of the Old English period, there was a considerable time period, of about three hundred years, during which there existed "echoes" of the gender classification of nouns. The study records the best known conclusions concerning the behaviour of anaphoric pronouns under grammatical gender "stress" in the late Old English and Middl…

From King Cane to the Last Sugar Mill
Sugarcane arrived in Hawai‘i with the Polynesian settlers, and sugar grew into an important industry in the mid-1800s. By the early twentieth century Hawai‘i had become a world leader in sugarcane production and research. However, despite a century of almost continuous growth and development, in the last quarter of the twentieth century the industry faltered, unable to cope with continually increasing costs of production that outpaced sugar price…
Neighborhood Social Capital, Neighborhood Disadvantage, and Change of Neighborhood as Predictors of School Readiness
Neighborhood income and social capital are considered important for child development, but social capital has rarely been measured directly at an aggregate level. We used Canadian data to derive measures of social capital from aggregated parental judgments of neighborhood collective efficacy and neighborhood safety. Measures of neighborhood income came from Census data. Direct measures of preschoolers’ school readiness were predicted from neighbo…
De la Ville a l'Etat
Mathieu Marraud’s very dense but highly rewarding volume runs counter to two current historiographical tendencies. First, despite Sarah Maza’s The Myth of the French Bourgeoisie (2003), Marraud shows that there is still historical mileage in studying a social group which it would be difficult to imagine calling anything else but ‘bourgeois’. Second, it overrides the move in historical analysis in recent years, grounded in lack of confidence about…
Liberalismo, nacionalismo y transnacionalismo en la obra y vida de Vicente Fidel López (1815-1903)
This article explores the contribution made to the consolidation of the Argentine national project, both as a writer and a high-ranking politician, by Vicente Fidel López (1815-1903), a member of the so-called Generation of ‘37. By focusing on some of his less well-known writings, it situates López as a socially inclusive conservative and at the same time as a patrician economic nationalist. Unlike most of the historiography on López, which has f…
The Human Right to Subsistence
Is there a human right to subsistence? A satisfactory answer to this question will explain what makes human rights distinctive, what is meant by subsistence, and why subsistence is an appropriate content of a human right. This article situates the human right to subsistence within the context of recent philosophical discussions of human rights. The argument for human subsistence rights provides an instructive example of how to understand what hum…

Through t…
Suffering Childhood in Early America
In this thoughtful and closely observed book, Anna Mae Duane traces the work that children, both historical and symbolic, performed in mediating the unsettling realities of intercultural contact in British North America during the colonial and early national periods. Duane contends that children, specifically in their capacity for suffering, served complex ends in legitimating revolution and disabling claims to citizenship of some Americans, nota…
Human rights and moral cosmopolitanism
What does it mean to defend moral cosmopolitanism in terms of human rights? I outline ‘human rights cosmopolitanism’, explain the role of equality in giving content to this conception, and defend the liberal view of human rights against the restricted view by considering – and responding to – several arguments for remaining neutral between a range of cultural and ideological perspectives on the demands of social justice and political legitimacy. …
The Comedy of Errors? A Reply to Mette Eilstrup-Sangiovanni
In her response to our article, Mette Eilstrup-Sangiovanni replaces balance-of-power theory (threat of hegemony begets balancing, which produces a tendency of international systems toward equilibria of power) with a complex congeries of competing and contingent conjectures about when states might balance. While these are certainly part of the extensive literature on the balance of power, lumping them together and calling them a `theory' invites a…

Hierarchy and Resistance in American State-Systems 1400–1800 CE
After spelling out some implications of recent ethno-history, this chapter examines the two great areas of extensive urbanization and political organization encountered by the Spanish in the Americas in the early 16 th century, asking when and to what extent balancing had failed in each prior to the Spanish invasion, and seeking to account for this. It goes on to ask why Aztec and Inca overlordship was followed by Spanish empire rather than a rec…

Testing Balance-of-Power Theory in World History
The balance of power is one of the most influential theoretical ideas in international relations, but it has not yet been tested systematically in international systems other than modern Europe and its global successor. This article is the product of a collective and multidisciplinary research effort to redress this deficiency. We report findings from eight new case studies on balancing and balancing failure in different international systems tha…
Introduction to the special issue
Institutions with Global Scope
This paper attempts to evaluate two arguments dealing with the nature and form of global political institutions. In each case I assume the general plausibility of moral cosmopolitanism, the view that every person in the world is entitled to equal moral consideration regardless of their various memberships in states, classes, nations, religious groups, and the like. The first argument is designed to show that moral cosmopolitans should be committe…

Three theses concerning phonological representations
I. Some recent work in phonology/phonetics has tended to reaffirm the relevance of larger-than-segment (non-syntactico-morphological) structural units like the syllable: that is, that phonological representations are per se more highly structured than has generally been supposed in the immediate past. On the one hand, it has been argued that various ‘prosodic’ phenomena have as their domain non-arbitrary groupings of segments, including in partic…

International Business in the Nineteenth Century

The facts are by now sufficiently clear for it to be common ground in any discussion of late nineteenth-century imperialism that the British State was disinclined to interfere on behalf of British capitalists with Latin American interests when these were threatened by local firms or States. Equally it is clear that British capitalists did not invest in Argentina in the belief that, by so doing, they were actively assisting the foreign policy of t…

Christian Realism and the Foundations of the English School
The hard edge imparted to mid-twentieth century British International Relations by Christian realism has been neglected in histories of the second great debate. Indeed standard accounts of the development of the discipline have little to say about its secularization. Against a backdrop of renewed interest in political theology, this article sets out to remind a secular readership of the Augustinian element in the British tradition, principally by…
Carr, Mannheim, and a Post-positivist Science of International Relations
Recent work on Carr has looked beyond The Twenty Years' Crisis to the seeming anomaly of a political realist advocating regional integration in Western Europe, a welfare state at home, and a free hand for the USSR in Eastern Europe. Some have seen this anomaly, and Carr's successive appeasements of Germany and the USSR, as mere opportunism, but this paper finds a coherence in Carr's work deriving substantially from Mannheim. It was from Mannheim …

Some Constraints on Medial Consonant Clusters
It can be argued that syllable shape is a function of the morpheme structure constraints in a given language—and that, in segments more than one syllable long, the composition of medial clusters is a reflection of those constraints as they apply to initial and final groups. Further, given a convention for syllable bracketing, it is possible to show a further characteristic of medial clusters: namely, that they ideally overlap, i.e. have simultane…

While many of Logan’s points were interesting and suggested ways in which some of the statistical burdens could be raised from human shoulders, in my opinion much ot what he says tends both to oversimplify the problem of computer usefulness in this fiel…

Editoral Comment
Milestone. This Review is edited and published in a nation now celebrating the 200th anniversary of its political independence. With predictable contentiousness, scholars have divided over the question of whether they can add anything to the occasion. Some argue that the proper role of the political scientist is to stand outside the dominant ideologies which sustain the state and act as critic and goad in behalf of higher, unrealized ideals. Othe…
