Contents:

The apology : definitional issues -- The emergence of the apology -- The apology : the principal issues -- The ideological location of the apology -- Intra-state apologies : reflections on the politics of support and opposition -- Inter-state apologies and international relations -- Evaluating the apology : advantags and disadvantages.

Summary: This book offers a critical consideration of the apology in politics. It provides a detailed overview of all aspects of the phenomenon of the apology made by states, which has increased significantly since the mid-1980s. It is the product of a decade's research and reflection on the subject and thus provides a complete coverage of all the key debates and features. States of Apology evaluates the relationship between the personal apology and the apology in politics, the political and cultural factors behind its emergence and the philosophical problems generated by the state apologising and in particular the question of responsibility across generations. The book also considers the dynamics of domestic apologies and the relationship of the apology to the field of international relations. It is written in a clear and jargon-free style which will make it accessible to both students and non-students alike.--Provided by publisher.
