Beskrivning

Challenging the Western-centric foundations of International Relations (IR), this groundbreaking edited volume places Asian perspectives at the forefront of IR scholarship. Spanning nine countries across Asia, this rigorous examination reveals how concepts of sovereignty and internationalism have been uniquely interpreted and adapted across diverse Asian contexts. Moving beyond American social science paradigms, the book traces the fascinating encounters between Western and Asian worldviews, explores country-specific IR developments and demonstrates their transformative impact on global academic discourse. It is essential reading for scholars seeking to understand IR’s true global diversity and the promising future of post-Western international theory.
