Bøger i Global Dialogues: Non Eurocentric Visions of the Global serien

This book provides a generous immanent description of liberalism, but also works against and looks beyond it.

Explores the ancient relationship between India and China to conceptualise a 'third space' wherein we can discover how their emergence might benefit, rather than threaten, international society.

The book presents a possible way of reading and re-writing the Eurocentrism of International Relations. The method proposed to re-write histories of the manifestations and criticisms of Eurocentrism is through ';connected histories'. The first section of the book focuses on manifestations of Eurocentrism in and through disciplinary formations and geopolitical contexts. This section explores the ';field of IR' as a problematic unit that already assumes a coloniality of power. It questions the existence of ';fields of study' and the borders between them by examining the permeability between history and IR, and highlighting how Eurocentric assumptions about world politics are reproduced in the different ';fields'. The second section of the book focuses on criticisms of Eurocentrism in and through disciplines and geopolitical contexts. This setion explores the different ways in which theoretical strategies criticizing Eurocentrism were formulated in conversation with each other across disciplines and geopolitical contexts.

International Relations tends to rely on concepts that developed on the European continent, obscuring the fact that its history is far less ';international' than one might expect. But in today's global world, who does this ignore and marginalize? And what impact does that have on the discipline's potential to assess world politics?This book explores an Islamic approach to the ';international', showing that Islam can contribute keen insights into how we ';do' IR, and how we might change that practice to be more inclusive, while also highlighting the limits of an ';Islamic International Relations'. Exploring conceptualizations of community and difference in Islamic traditions, the book relates these notions to concepts that are considered universal in IR, such as state-based politics and the necessity for secularism. In this way, the book shows how the study of political Islam might help to interrogate and redefine key concepts within international politics. In a world of continuing polarization between ';Islam' and ';the West', this book offers IR a chance to engage in a constructive dialogue with Islamic traditions, in order to better understand global politics.

This book explores how 'Sufism' - as an established non-Western philosophy with a remarkable temporal-spatial spread across the globe - facilitates a creative intervention in the theoretical-practical understanding of Global IR.
