ISBN: 9781783484584 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 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?

"Unconditional Equality" examines Mahatma Gandhi s critique of liberal ideas of freedom and equality and his own practice of a freedom and equality organized around religion. It reconceives satyagraha (passive resistance) as a politics that strives for the absolute equality of all beings. Liberal traditions usually affirm an abstract equality centered on some form of autonomy, the Kantian term for the everyday sovereignty that rational beings exercise by granting themselves universal law. But for Gandhi, such equality is an equality of sword profoundly violent not only because it excludes...

African Political Thought of the Twentieth Century: A Re-Engagement

This book focuses on African political thought, as it emerged in the context of and contributed to fundamental changes in world order during the twentieth century, and as it continues to speak to the present global condition.

Subversions of the American Century: Filipino Literature in Spanish and the Transpacific Transformation of the United States
ISBN: 9780472072934 / Angielski / Twarda / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Subversions of the American Century: Filipino Literature in Spanish and the Transpacific Transformation of the United States argues that the moment the United States became an overseas colonial power in 1898, American national identity was redefined across a global matrix. The Philippines, which the United States seized at that point from Spain and local revolutionaries, is therefore the birthplace of a new kind of America, one with a planetary reach that was, most profoundly, accompanied by resistance to that reach by local peoples.

Global Justice: Critical Perspectives
ISBN: 9781138662568 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The global justice debate has been raging for forty years. Not merely the terms and conditions, but, more deeply, the epistemic, existential and ethical grounds of the international relations of persons, states and institutions are being determined, debated and negotiated. Yet the debate remains essentially a parochial one, confined largely to Western intellectuals and institutional spaces. An Introduction to the field is therefore still urgently required, because it remains necessary to include more 'global' voices into this debate of worldwide reach and significance. The book...

Cultural Studies 50 Years on: History, Practice and Politics
ISBN: 9781783483921 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Stuart Hall conceptualized his time at the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies as a series of interruptions. It was this fluidity that gave rise to Hall s conception of cultural studies as a moving target, a fusion of a range of disciplinary approaches that was uniquely influenced by politics in the world beyond the academy. The political commitments of those at the Centre were wide-ranging and, from its embrace of collective ways of research and decision-making to its deployment of various strands of European Marxist theory, had a critical impact on the Centre s working practices.

Re-Writing International Relations: History and Theory Beyond Eurocentrism in Turkey
ISBN: 9781783487837 / Angielski / Twarda / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The histories, theories and sociologies of the field of International Relations have been unable to overcome their Westcentrism. They have even reproduced it by continuing to present a linear and bounded story. This book tells a different story, challenging disciplinary and theoretical boundaries to create a connected and global IR. The first 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...

The Bandung Conference was the seminal event of the twentieth century that announced, envisaged and mobilized for the prospect of a decolonial global order.
