The End of Certainty: Towards a New Internationalism
ISBN: 9781848133037 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is a magical realist book on world politics.

The book's main argument is that international politics has failed because the certainties of singular traditions of philosophy fail to help us in understanding power shifts and struggles in an endlessly diverse world. Chan argues that fusing different strands of Western, Eastern, religious and philosophical thought, is far more likely to help us understand and move forward...
