商品描述

This book asks what it means to think globally about world politics. In an attempt to contextualise the recent 'globalising turn' in International Relations (IR), it takes stock of more than 30 years of efforts at addressing IR's Eurocentric limitations, and explores what 'thinking globally' means in practice through focusing on the study of (international) security and foreign policy. The authors offer thinking globally about world politics not as an alternative to, but as a critical engagement with, IR. It involves curiosity about what others think about the world, making a sustained effort to locate the knowledge they have produced, and recognising past and present contributions to what we otherwise view as 'European' ideas, practices, and institutions. Rather than focusing on abstract debates about the state of the discipline, the aim is to provide researchers with the conceptual tools to think globally and design their own research projects.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書探討了在世界政治中如何以全球視角思考的意義。為了將國際關係(IR)中最近的「全球化轉向」置於背景中,它回顧了30多年來解決IR歐洲中心主義限制的努力,並通過專注於(國際)安全和外交政策的研究,探索了「全球思考」在實踐中的含義。作者們提供了對世界政治的全球思考,不是作為IR的替代方案,而是作為對IR的批判性參與。這涉及到對他人對世界的看法的好奇心,持續努力找到他們所產生的知識,並認識到對我們所認為的「歐洲」觀念、實踐和制度的過去和現在的貢獻。目標不是專注於關於學科狀況的抽象辯論,而是為研究人員提供思考全球並設計自己研究項目的概念工具。
