The Political Discourse of Anarchy
Author: Brian C. Schmidt
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438419015
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
CHOICE 1998 Outstanding Academic Books This detailed disciplinary history of the field of international relations examines its early emergence in the mid-nineteenth century to the period beginning with the outbreak of World War II. It demonstrates that many of the commonly held assumptions about the field's early history are incorrect, such as the presumed dichotomy between idealist and realist periods. By showing how the concepts of sovereignty and anarchy have served as the core constituent principles throughout the history of the discipline, and how earlier discourse is relevant to the contemporary study of war and peace, international security, international organization, international governance, and international law, the book contributes significantly to current debates about the identity of the international relations field and political science more generally.

The Anarchist Imagination
Author: Carl Levy
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317435508
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This is a broad ranging introduction to twenty-first-century anarchism which includes a wide array of theoretical approaches as well as a variety of empirical and geographical perspectives. The book demonstrates how the anarchist imagination has influenced the humanities and social sciences including anthropology, art, feminism, geography, international relations, political science, postcolonialism, and sociology. Drawing on a long historical narrative that encompasses the 'waves' of anarchist movements from the classical anarchists (1840s to 1940s), post-war wave of student, counter-cultural and workers' control anarchism of the 1960s and 1970s to the DIY politics and Temporary Autonomous Zones of the 1990s right up to the Occupy! Movement and beyond, the aim of this volume is to cover the humanities and the social sciences in an era of anarchist revival in academia. Anarchist philosophy and anarchistic methodologies have re-emerged in a range of disciplines from Organization Studies, to Law, to Political Economy to Political Theory and International Relations, and Anthropology to Cultural Studies. Anarchist approaches to freedom, democracy, ethics, violence, authority, punishment, homelessness, and the arbitration of justice have spawned a broad array of academic publications and research projects. But this volume remembers an older story, in other words, the continuous role of the anarchist imagination as muse, provocateur, goading adversary, and catalyst in the stimulation of research and creative activity in the humanities and social sciences from the middle of the nineteenth century to today. This work will be essential reading for scholars and students of anarchism, the humanities, and the social sciences.

Polite Anarchy
Author: Jack Murray
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781686870774
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Polite Anarchy is a story about greed. It is a story about how everything Australians hold dear about their country has been sold to of the highest bidder and left ordinary Australians desperate and penniless. It is about greed, power, money and revenge - the unholy alliance between banks and GovernmentPolite Anarchy paints a fictional but factual picture of how incredibly fragile all our lives have become and how one person could bring down an entire country by simply tapping into our innermost fears. The story is based on the fact that we have allowed our political and financial systems to become so finely balanced that it would take almost nothing to cause their collapse. It also highlights the growing divide between city and country and the dangers that poses to our future. At its core, the book is the anatomy of a disaster, where a series of seemingly innocent events that would be meaningless on their own, combine to create the complete collapse of our financial system. The story highlights the level of distrust we harbour about our governments and business leaders and the underlying fear that creates. It tells the story of what really goes on behind the closed doors of government, the seedy underbelly of financial markets and the harshness of the Australian outback. Polite Anarchy is a fiction. But it could become real any day now.

Daoism, Dandyism, and Political Correctness
Author: Thorsten Botz-Bornstein
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 143849453X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
How would Zhuangzi, a Chinese philosopher who lived in the fourth century BCE, have reacted to the recent linguistic reforms commonly referred to as "political correctness"? Zhuangzi was a language skeptic, which means that he did not believe that language could convey the true meanings of the world. Might Zhuangzi have argued that political correctness creates but a dream world made of rules, policies, and words—no more real than when he "dreamt he was a butterfly"? Written in a provocative tone, this book looks at political correctness through the lens of ancient Chinese philosophy, as well as through Brummell's and Wilde's aesthetic philosophy of dandyism. Several scholars have established links between Zhuangzi and dandyism, and Wilde wrote one of the first reviews of Herbert Giles's English translation of the Zhuangzi. Like Daoism, dandyism does not engage in a Confucian "correction" of language, instead preferring aimless roaming and rambling. The Daoist "carefree wanderer" is a flâneur, and both Daoist and dandy deconstruct the puritanism and correctness sought by Confucianism, Victorianism, and our contemporary neoliberal culture. Instead of seeking to induce correct opinions, they seek to liberate the mind.

The Coming Anarchy
Author: Robert D. Kaplan
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 1400033039
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Robert Kaplan, bestselling author of Balkan Ghosts, offers up scrupulous, far-ranging insights on the world to come in a spirited, rousing, and provocative book that has earned a place at the top of the reading lists of the world's policy makers. The end of the Cold War has not ushered in the global peace and prosperity that many had anticipated. Volatile new democracies in Eastern Europe, fierce tribalism in Africa, civil war and ethnic violence in the Near East, and widespread famine and disease—not to mention the brutal rift developing as wealthy nations reap the benefits of seemingly boundless technology while other parts of the world slide into chaos—are among the issues Kaplan identifies as the most important for charting the future of geopolitics. Historical antecedents in Gibbon's Decline and Fall and in the legacies of statesmen such as Henry Kissinger contribute to this bracingly prophetic framework for addressing the new global reality. Bold, erudite, and profoundly important, The Coming Anarchy is a compelling must-read by one of today's most penetrating writers and provocative minds.
