L’expression « communauté internationale » est victime de son propre succès. Son caractère rassurant – qui évoque une conception harmonieuse du système international par la mise en valeur de ses forces unificatrices – en a fait l’instrument favori des savants qui enquêtent sur la logique interne de la société mondiale et de tous ceux qui cherchent, même en dehors des sciences sociales, à rallier l’opinion publique à une cause réclamée « universelle ». De nos jours, on fait souvent « appel à la communauté internationale », on s’insurge contre des actes « portant atteinte aux intérêts » de celle-ci, on parle ou agit « en son nom »... Malheureusement, cet emploi généralisé a fini par brouiller le sens exact de l’expression : la notion de « communauté internationale » apparaît déterminée autant par les idéaux et les intérêts de celui qui l’invoque que par l’objet ou les buts qui l’ont décidé à y faire appel. Dans le cadre d’une recherche portant sur le droit des gens, l’expression constitue donc un point de départ à la fois attrayant – puisqu’il fait allusion à un concept bien connu, autant par le juriste international que par le profane – et dangereux – parce que ambigu. La présente étude relève ce défi. Elle utilise le concept de « communauté internationale » pour chercher à comprendre certaines évolutions fondamentales de l’ordre juridique international. Après avoir proposé une définition de ce concept et décrit ses diverses manifestations dans le droit contemporain (jus cogens, obligations erga omnes, responsabilité pénale internationale, etc.), elle s’intéresse plus particulièrement au domaine, maintes fois débattu, de la responsabilité des États. Grâce à un examen attentif de la théorie et de la pratique dans ce domaine, et notamment des travaux de la Commission du droit international, l’étude propose une systématisation de la responsabilité des États pour violation d’obligations dues à la communauté internationale dans son ensemble, décrivant tour à tour le…

John Keane, a leading scholar of political theory, tracks the recent development of a big idea with fresh potency - global civil society. In this timely book, Keane explores the contradictory forces currently nurturing or threatening its growth, and he shows how talk of global civil society implies a political vision of a less violent world, founded on legally sanctioned power-sharing arrangements among different and intermingling forms of socio-economic life. Keane's reflections are pitted against the widespread feeling that the world is both too complex and too violent to deserve serious reflection. His account borrows from various scholarly disciplines, including political science and international relations, to challenge the silence and confusion within much of contemporary literature on globalisation and global governance. Against fears of terrorism, rising tides of xenophobia, and loose talk of 'anti-globalisation', the defence of global civil society mounted here implies the need for new democratic ways of living.

Over the past three decades the effects of globalization and denationalization have created a division between 'winners' and 'losers' in Western Europe. This study examines the transformation of party political systems in six countries (Austria, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the UK) using opinion surveys, as well as newly collected data on election campaigns. The authors argue that, as a result of structural transformations and the strategic repositioning of political parties, Europe has observed the emergence of a tripolar configuration of political power, comprising the left, the moderate right, and the new populist right. They suggest that, through an emphasis on cultural issues such as mass immigration and resistance to European integration, the traditional focus of political debate - the economy - has been downplayed or reinterpreted in terms of this new political cleavage. This new analysis of Western European politics will interest all students of European politics and political sociology.
