Synopsis "Foreign Affairs: Proof of Concepts - Conceptus Maxima"
Dr Amrit Rattan K Baidwan- Macfarland presents her essays and research in foreign affairs and international relations; the causes behind the development of the Syrian civil war and its impact on the wider regions of the Middle East. How does the Syrian civil war conflict involve the thesis of the cold war paradigms, the balance of power, and containment, with Russia and the USA for the first time, since the global conflicts began, now engaged in Syria. The concepts of foreign affairs and IR have since been activated, are discussed as are major military events, peace initiatives conducted by Russia and the USA, and other regional, national concepts as well as prior conflicts, Iraq, Libya, Israel-Palestine, Arab Spring in Egypt; which expanded to become a violent civil battle in Syria and that has the potential to change the Middle east paradigm, and to reshape the Arabian Peninsula. By focusing on the global history of conflicts, this century, and the proxy cold wars in the Indo-pacific regions, between two global powers, she takes each unique topic and examines through this novel lens, the development of Syria's war. The exploits of the Islamic state of Iraq, Syria, and that of the Islamic states of Libya (ISIL) and Nigeria (ISWAP), their role in the development and escalation of unrest, and devolution to a civil war and a larger conflict ultimately embroiling the entire Arab world, most key Western nations, and Indo-Pacific Asiatic nations. Multinational Oil companies, (MNE), operating in conflicts zones, such as the above, is examined, the stakeholder enablement principle re-examined, and amendments to current legislation suggested. She further explores the role of AI in conflict zones and NASA space research, as presented by Washington, and the United States legal systems. How will granting legal personhood to AI impact on the near future for the purposes of Intellectual property law and other areas, and explores the ideas of intelligence from models moved forward by eminent philosophers, and jurists of our times. What models in existence could grant AI an existential presence as an intellect and therefore as a Legal person. This raises questions of infringement, as AI evolve to becoming persons that create, invent and paint, and even at times, have killed. What happens when they evolve into a super intelligent entity, how then will the laws, get involved through the common law, the civil tradition, and equally the criminal laws? Patent law and copyright laws are addressed along with moral rights, as they impact evolving technologies and their engagement in conflict zones. She addresses the first concept of the Holy war, Jihad (2001- present of the Arabian peninsula) taken from the Sanskrit text Mahabharata and then delivers it conceptually as a dialogue between a Sanskrit Christos and his beloved disciple before the commencement of the Jihad. Selected paintings of a Commander and Captain are also presented in her final chapter. AUTHORHOUSE - ACADEMIC PRESS
