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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001. Questioning the authority of the discipline of international relations, in particular structural realism, to recognize the influence of varied social phenomena on possible outcomes, this book demonstrates how seemingly insignificant acts propagated through music, humour and poetry can disturb official culture and initiate social change. This thought-provoking work is compelling reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of both international relations and cultural studies alike.

Book Synopsis Race, Gender, and Culture in International Relations by : Randolph Persaud
Download or read book Race, Gender, and Culture in International Relations written by Randolph Persaud and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 204 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.

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 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 Culture and Foreign Policy by : Howard J. Wiarda
Download or read book Culture and Foreign Policy written by Howard J. Wiarda and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political culture refers to the basic values, ideas, beliefs and political orientations by which countries, societies, and whole regions are guided. The underlying belief systems that shape cultures and societies and cause them to behave in certain, often distinct ways. The puzzle or query that chiefly concerns this author is why the United States (US) and its foreign policy have such a hard time understanding cultures and societies other than their own. This provocative book argues that the US needs to end its attitudes of superiority and condescension toward other nations and cultures and redirect its foreign policy accordingly. After an introduction that sets forth the main theoretical and conceptual arguments, the next chapters explore all the main areas of the world. The Conclusion pulls all these themes together, analyzes the common patterns that emerge, and suggests new directions for U.S foreign policy.

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 320 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.
Download or read book Post-Chineseness written by Chih-yu Shih and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been few efforts to overcome the binary of China versus the West. The recent global political environment, with a deepening confrontation between China and the West, strengthens this binary image. Post-Chineseness boldly challenges the essentialized notion of Chineseness in existing scholarship through the revelation of the multiplicity and complexity of the uses of Chineseness by strategically conceived insiders, outsiders, and those in-between. Combining the fields of international relations, cultural politics, and intellectual history, Chih-yu Shih investigates how the global audience perceives (and essentializes) Chineseness. Shih engages with major Chinese international relations theories, investigates the works of sinologists in Hong Kong, Singapore, Pakistan, Taiwan, Vietnam, and other academics in East Asia, and explores individual scholars' life stories and academic careers to delineate how Chineseness is constantly negotiated and reproduced. Shih's theory of the "balance of relationships" expands the concept of Chineseness and effectively challenges existing theories of realism, liberalism, and conventional constructivism in international relations. The highly original delineation of multiple layers and diverse dimensions of "Chineseness" opens an intellectual channel between the social sciences and humanities in China studies.
Book Synopsis Diplomatic Cultures and International Politics by : Jason Dittmer
Download or read book Diplomatic Cultures and International Politics written by Jason Dittmer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an inter-disciplinary and critical analysis of the role of culture in diplomatic practice. If diplomacy is understood as the practice of conducting negotiations between representatives of distinct communities or causes, then questions of culture and the spaces of cultural exchange are at its core. But what of the culture of diplomacy itself? When and how did this culture emerge, and what alternative cultures of diplomacy run parallel to it, both historically and today? How do particular spaces and places inform and shape the articulation of diplomatic culture(s)? This volume addresses these questions by bringing together a collection of theoretically rich and empirically detailed contributions from leading scholars in history, international relations, geography, and literary theory. Chapters attend to cross-cutting issues of the translation of diplomatic cultures, the role of space in diplomatic exchange and the diversity of diplomatic cultures beyond the formal state system. Drawing on a range of methodological approaches the contributors discuss empirical cases ranging from indigenous diplomacies of the Inuit Circumpolar Council, to the European External Action Service, the 1955 Bandung Conference, the spatial imaginaries of mid twentieth-century Balkan writer diplomats, celebrity and missionary diplomacy, and paradiplomatic narratives of The Hague. The volume demonstrates that, when approached from multiple disciplinary perspectives and understood as expansive and plural, diplomatic cultures offer an important lens onto issues as diverse as global governance, sovereignty regimes and geographical imaginations. This book will be of much interest to students of public diplomacy, foreign policy, international organisations, media and communications studies, and IR in general.
