Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | ""This is one of the few books about g̀lobal' politics that has engaged my attention in a long time. It is well informed, well edited, and equally well written. Locating Global Order is both important and provocative -- important, in that it insists on interrogating the relationship between politics and location to avoid cliches about territorialized nation-states or patterns of globalization; provocative, in that it disrupts some powerful claims about where politics ought to be occurring." R.B.J. Walker, author of After the Globe/Before the World" ""Locating Global Order is interesting, intelligent, and accessible. It would work well as a reader for senior undergraduates and graduate students in Canadian foreign policy and related fields." Mark Neufeld, author of The Restructuring of International Relations Theory Since 9/11, policy makers and observers have questioned whether America should don the mantle of empire for the sake of world peace, or whether peace will come through world government. Locating Global Order questions the very idea that the political order is hierarchical, with state and international institutions at the top and groups and individuals at the bottom. Chapters examining case studies on Canada's role in the construction and maintenance of global order post-9/11, both domestically and internationally, reveal that this order is not exclusively American -- allied powers are a key component of its hegemony."--BOOK JACKET. |
