Book Synopsis Culture and International History by : Jessica C. E. Gienow-Hecht
Download or read book Culture and International History written by Jessica C. E. Gienow-Hecht and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining the perspectives of 18 international scholars from Europe and the United States with a critical discussion of the role of culture in international relations, this volume introduces recent trends in the study of Culture and International History. It systematically explores the cultural dimension of international history, mapping existing approaches and conceptual lenses for the study of cultural factors and thus hopes to sharpen the awareness for the cultural approach to international history among both American and non-American scholars. The first part provides a methodological introduction, explores the cultural underpinnings of foreign policy, and the role of culture in international affairs by reviewing the historiography and examining the meaning of the word culture in the context of foreign relations. In the second part, contributors analyze culture as a tool of foreign policy. They demonstrate how culture was instrumentalized for diplomatic goals and purposes in different historical periods and world regions. The essays in the third part expand the state-centered view and retrace informal cultural relations among nations and peoples. This exploration of non-state cultural interaction focuses on the role of science, art, religion, and tourism. The fourth part collects the findings and arguments of part one, two, and three to define a roadmap for further scholarly inquiry. A group of" commentators" survey the preceding essays, place them into a larger research context, and address the question "Where do we go from here?" The last and fifth part presents a selection of primary sources along with individual comments highlighting a new genre of resources scholars interested in culture and international relations can consult.
Book Synopsis Race, Gender, and Culture in International Relations by : Randolph B. Persaud
Download or read book Race, Gender, and Culture in International Relations written by Randolph B. Persaud and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International relations theory has broadened out considerably since the end of the Cold War. Topics and issues once deemed irrelevant to the discipline have been systematically drawn into the debate and great strides have been made in the areas of culture/identity, race, and gender in the discipline. However, despite these major developments over the last two decades, currently there are no comprehensive textbooks that deal with race, gender, and culture in IR from a postcolonial perspective. This textbook fills this important gap. Persaud and Sajed have drawn together an outstanding lineup of scholars, with each chapter illustrating the ways these specific lenses (race, gender, culture) condition or alter our assumptions about world politics. This book: covers a wide range of topics including war, global inequality, postcolonialism, nation/nationalism, indigeneity, sexuality, celebrity humanitarianism, and religion; follows a clear structure, with each chapter situating the topic within IR, reviewing the main approaches and debates surrounding the topic and illustrating the subject matter through case studies; features pedagogical tools and resources in every chapter - boxes to highlight major points; illustrative narratives; and a list of suggested readings. Drawing together prominent scholars in critical International Relations, this work shows why and how race, gender and culture matter and will be essential reading for all students of global politics and International Relations theory.

Book Synopsis Resounding International Relations by : M.I. Franklin
Download or read book Resounding International Relations written by M.I. Franklin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a provocative area of inquiry for critical theory and research into world politics and popular culture: music. Not just because political science barely engages with anything musical, but also because it is clear that many opportunities for critical scholarship and reflection on global politics and economics are present in the spaces and relationships created by organized sound. It is easy to focus on the textual elements of music, but there is more at stake than just the words. Critical reflection on the intersections between music and politics also need to take into account the visceral and non-verbal elements such as counterpoint and harmony, polyphony and dissonance, noise, rhymes, rhythms, performance and the visual/aural dimensions to music-making.
Book Synopsis Cultural Factors in International Relations by : Ram Prakash Anand
Download or read book Cultural Factors in International Relations written by Ram Prakash Anand and published by Abhinav Publications. This book was released on 1981 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite The Fact That Our Newly Emerging Worldwide Community Of States Has Become Increasingly Inter-Dependent In The Present Thermo-Nuclear Age, The World Today Is Seriously Divided By Ideology And Aspirations. Understanding Culture In A Wider Sense As Reflecting The Values, Habits, And Accumulated Mores Of A Society, There Can Be Little Doubt That Peoples And Countries Are Affected By Their Cultural Differences Which Reflect Their Values, Outlooks, Intentions, Interests, Habits And Historical Hopes And Fears. Unless These Cultural And Other Differences Are Understood And Appreciated, There Is A Possibility Of Misconceptions, Misinterpretations, And Erroneous Judgment On All Sides, Which Can Be Extremely Dangerous In This Age.This Book Seeks To Understand Some Aspects Of These Cultural Differences Of Various Countries In Their Dealings With Each Other. Specifically, It Examines In One Part The Cultural Problems In Treaty Negotiations Because It Is Through Treaties Or Agreements, Formal Or Informal, That Independent Sovereign States Interact With Each Other And Try To Protect Their Interests And Rights In The International Society. Several Eminent Scholars And Practitioners Of International Law And Relations From Several Countries Study And Evaluate The Impact Of Cultural Differences On International Relations With Special Reference To The Negotiation Of Treaties. In The Second Part, The Book Examines How Similar Or Diverse Cultural Factors Affect The Relations Amongst States In A Limited Region Of Southeast Asia. Asean Has Been Taken Up As A Subject Of Study By Several Scholars Not Only Because Of Its Importance As An Area Lying On The Crossroads Of The East And The West, But Also Because It Provides A Rich And Fertile Ground For The Study Of The Impact Of Diverse Cultural Factors On The Lives And Behaviour Of These Ancient Societies In An Entirely New Age.
Book Synopsis Culture and International Relations by : Jongsuk Chay
Download or read book Culture and International Relations written by Jongsuk Chay and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1990-01-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meeting a major challenge, twenty-four scholars collaborated to produce this unprecedented volume on the cultural dimensions of international relations. This field of study, long considered too vast, has up to now been neglected by scholars in the humanities and international relations. This 18-chapter book provides a theoretical overview, examines the present status of scholarship where international relations and the humanities intersect, and studies the impact of cultural differences in shaping foreign policy. U.S. international political culture receives special attention. Other cultures given close examination include Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The book concludes with a discussion of the key issues in culture and international relations. The importance of culture in international relations has long been recognized yet neglected. This volume fills this void of scholarship. It has three objectives: to survey studies completed to date; to determine the impact of cultural differences upon the foreign policy making process; and, most importantly, to push forward the frontiers of knowledge in this field.
Book Synopsis Politics and Culture in International History by : Adda B. Bozeman
Download or read book Politics and Culture in International History written by Adda B. Bozeman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current political conflicts in Somalia and Russia make the reappearance of this book as relevant as ever. Politics and Culture in International History illumines world politics by identifying the causes of conflict and war and assessing the validity of schemes for peace and unity. Bozeman maintains that political systems are grounded in cultures; thus, international relations are by definition hitercultural relations. She deals exclusively with the thought patterns of the world's literate civilizations and societies between the fourth millenium B.C. and the fifteenth century A.D. In a substantial new introduction, Bozeman analyzes world politics over the last half century, showing how the interplay of politics and culture has intensified. She notes that the world's assembly of states is no longer held together by substantive accords on norms, purposes, and values, but by loose agreements on the use offorms, techniques, and words. The causes and effects of these changes between the 1950s and 1990s are assayed by Bozeman.

Book Synopsis International Relations and Heritage by : Rodrigo Christofoletti
Download or read book International Relations and Heritage written by Rodrigo Christofoletti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patchwork in times of plurality encompasses the multitude of actions as a revealing symbol of ethos, actors, organisms, and manifestations of preservation and dialogue frontiers. This plural metaphor, almost like a patchwork, aggregates and yet segregates, conforms, but disfigures, and boosts the meanings which represent this new field that international relations have been recently crossing. Just like the mirror metaphor - that reflects everything to all and, sometimes, intervenes in distortions - the patchwork analogy allowed the book to take responsibility for the disclosure of preservation actions on a global scale. The book has a pioneering role insofar since it is the only publication with such characteristics, concerns, and coverage. The work studies the interconnection between cultural properties and international relations by understanding them as a mosaic before the bridges that intertwine people and borders. The main goal of this work is to illustrate in what way intergovernmental relations have been privileging heritage and culture as acting fields for its broader needs. Therefore, the book addresses topics related to the international agenda, focusing on its less debated themes. Two examples of these undervalued matters are the link between actors, preservationist actions, and the universe of world cultural heritage. The book also pursuits a critical dialogue between interdisciplinary fields that narrow heritage frontiers in search to contribute with a spectrum of academic perspectives and (inter)national study cases. To serve distinct economic, social, or political purposes, institutionalized heritage (embodied by different values) becomes instrumentalized in a top-down direction. In a development frame, when we perceive culture as indispensable to human life, the past is transformed into exchange currency. Through the creation of alternative fields of action, usually in a bottom-up logic, the present builds new heritage connections. Digital heritage's preservation, dissemination, and appreciation have been representing these same nets.
Book Synopsis Cultural Diplomacy in Europe by : Caterina Carta
Download or read book Cultural Diplomacy in Europe written by Caterina Carta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-24 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume explores European cultural diplomacy, a topic of growing interest across the scholarly and applied public policy communities in recent years. The contributions focus on Europe, culture and diplomacy and the way they are interlinked in the contemporary international context. The European Union increasingly resorts to cultural assets and activity for both internal and external purposes, to foster European cohesion and advancing integration, and to mitigate the demise of other foreign policy components, respectively. This calls for an analysis of the strategic role of culture, especially as it relates to the realm of EU external action. The chapters provide a conceptual discussion of culture in international relations and examine how this concept relates to cultural diplomacy and cultural strategy. The authors discuss roles and relationships with the EU’s 2016 Global Strategy and current EU attempts to foster the EU’s political and societal resilience.
Book Synopsis Battlestar Galactica and International Relations by : Nicholas J. Kiersey
Download or read book Battlestar Galactica and International Relations written by Nicholas J. Kiersey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at a television franchise like Battlestar Galactica (BSG) is no longer news within the discipline of International Relations. A growing number of scholars in and out of IR are studying the importance of cultural artifacts – popular or otherwise – for the phenomena that make up the core of our discipline. The genre of science fiction offers the analyst an opportunity that cannot be matched by more mimetic genres, namely the chance to look at how sets of widely-circulating expectations of the social serve to constrain authors as they work to introduce as yet unexplored problematiques, the fantasy aspect in much of science fiction storytelling is premised simply on a material difference. As such, while the physical setting of a science fiction tale might appear novel, its imaginative life world will likely retain many elements of the world we already live in and which we can readily recognize as similar to our own. For Critical IR scholarship then, BSG presents an opportunity to examine how these purported homologies or elements of redundancy between the fantastic and the real have been drawn and perhaps to consider, too, whether the show can teach us things about world politics, its various logics and structures, which we might not otherwise be sensitive to. Tackling some of the key contemporary issues in IR, the writers of BSG have taken on a range of important political themes and issues, including the legitimacy of military government, the tactical utility of genocide, and even the philosophical implications of artificial intelligence technologies for the very category of what it means to be 'human'. The contributors in this book explore in depth the argument that one of the most important aspects of popular culture is to naturalize or normalise a certain social order by further entrenching the expectations of social behaviour upon which our mentalities of rule are founded. This work will be of interest to student and scholars of international relations, popular culture and security studies.
