Introduction: understanding the post-western world -- Part I. How do we think about global politics? universals in international studies: competing universals: realism; competing universals: liberalism; searching for the particular: after constructivism -- Part II. What do we overlook? international politics in the non-western world: violence, rationality, and the state; politics, economics, and self-identity; the construction of difference in international affairs -- Part III. What now? reinventing international studies for the post-western world: reinventing realism: power and violence in the post-western world; reinventing liberalism: values and change in the post-western world; the way forward: searching for new universals in global politics |
| Summary |
"To fully understand the non-Western world and its growing impact on global politics, International Studies as a discipline has to change. The assumption that it speaks to universal realities has left the subject trapped within its current conventions and debates. Pierre P. Lizee argues that the nature of the state in the non-Western world, the nature of the market, and other such realities have to be studied in more detail in order to produce a better account of the way in which the non-Western world will influence global politics. Indeed, democratization, conflict resolution, development and international stability will all move forward within processes and agendas designed to a growing degree by non-Western actors."--Publisher's site |
