This volume critically analyses the theories and concepts of international relations (IR), which will be instrumental in understanding IR from a non-western perspective. Owing to its emphasis on the need to decolonise the discipline of IR, alternate perspectives from the global South have been explored and discussed in detail.The book provides new insights to make the discipline more inclusive, universal and contributory to world peace and security. It lucidly enumerates on the concepts of state, sovereignty, power, conflict, security, diplomacy, human rights, development, market, inequalities, and migration from a non-Eurocentric lens, bringing distinct perspectives and experiences to the fore. Expanding on the Indian foreign policy of Vasudev Kutumbakam, it highlights India's policy of multi-alliances and multilateralism and, also refers to India's contributions during the COVID-19 pandemic and its drive to champion the cause of marginalised nations by reforming international institutions and pressing for development with sustainability. It is testament to India's commitment to global security through cooperation and collective action.This book will be useful to the Departments of Political Science, Global Studies, International Studies, and South Asian studies. It will be an indispensable resource for researchers, social scientists and general readers interested to understand the theories and key concepts of IR, especially from an Indian perspective.

This wide ranging volume addresses the changing landscape of problems, challenges, and possibilities that emerge once the macroscopic notion of the Anthropocene is replaced with Southern Anthropocenes. It envisions Southern Anthropocenes as an opening towards forms and ends of life that exceeds-while remaining in partial relation with-modern socio-economic horizons and the determinations of the geo-, eco-, and climate sciences.What happens if Southern Anthroposcenes are allowed to multiply, and room is made for practices of worlding and life that are impossible from within the singular Anthropocene?Key issues include emergent interfaces between beings, ways of living, and worlds; problems of co-existence in and across pluriversal contact zones; explorations of livability under rapidly changing circumstances; speculations about other futures and how to invent them; investigations of more-than human itineraries and entangled territories; and explorations how to collectively invent the portals between ways of thinking and acting on a planet in a critical state. It will be essential reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in Sociology, Anthropology, Critical Education, Environmental Humanities, Science and Technology Studies, Geography and Urban Studies.

This book provides an account of British setter colonialism across the globe from 1530 to the present day. Centering the impact of settler colonies on indigenous peoples whose land was taken and populations were disrupted, it traces resistance, revolution, migration, assimilation and elimination in North America, Latin America, South Africa, Kenya, Ireland, the Middle East and Australia. Exploring the concept of settler colonialism, understanding how it differs from other aspects of imperialism and highlighting the importance of centering indigenous peoples in the study of empire, this book clarifies key theories, terms and debates within the field. Each chapter addresses issues of race, gender and the environment through a specific case study along with comparative 'counterpoint' examples of other settler colonies. It explores how indigenous peoples tried to preserve, recreate and reassert their cultures and values, and highlights the ongoing impact of settler colonialism and the domination of indigenous peoples and culture that continues to this day.With maps, images, primary documents and suggested further reading British Settler Colonialism provides an introduction to empire and colonialism with a focus on indigenous peoples, cultures and histories.

Lan, Pei-Chia / Kim, Minjeong (eds.), The Emerging Second Generation in Asia. (Ethnic and Racial Studies) 122 pp. 2025:8 (Routledge, UK) <750-848>
ISBN 978-1-041-07652-0 hard ¥40,991.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

Presenting six case studies from Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong, this volume marks one of the first forums dedicated to the emerging second generation in Asia. It aims to enhance the literature on the second generation, which has predominantly focused on North America and Western Europe.Rather than adhering to the assimilation paradigm, this book highlights the complex, non-linear pathways of incorporation and ambivalent identity politics faced by second-generation youth in Asia. It examines how children of international marriage complicate the ethnoscape of their respective societies. By emphasizing the geopolitical contexts and state policies shaping immigrant parents' migration and settlement, chapters explore how these macrostructural factors influence second-generation children's senses of belonging and membership. Furthermore, chapters analyze the distinct manifestations of transnationalism in Asian contexts, blurring the traditional distinction between "sending" and "receiving" countries in the life trajectories of the second generation.This book was originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.

新国際経済秩序
Stubbs, Paul, The New International Economic Order: Lives and Afterlives. (Routledge Studies in Modern History) 240 pp. 2025:9 (Routledge, UK) <750-168>
ISBN 978-1-032-76767-3 hard ¥40,991.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

The New International Economic Order (NIEO) was an attempt, underpinned by the agency of the Global South, to articulate global economic and social rights consequent upon political rights gained through processes of decolonisation. The New International Economic Order: Lives and Afterlives situates the NIEO within the interregnum of the 1970s, addressing its core features, intellectual antecedents, contradictions, absences, and afterlives. Particular attention is paid to the role of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) alongside the G-77 and UNCTAD. The book traces the orchestrated United States opposition to the NIEO and the growth of neoliberalism at the end of the 1970s before discussing some of the NIEO's many afterlives. It argues that analysing, translating and adapting the NIEO is important for any re-envisioning of emancipatory global economic, political and social relations today.Using a mixture of documentary and archive material, The New International Economic Order will be of interest to students and researchers in diplomatic history, international relations, development studies and sociology. It brings together a large number of themes that are not usually considered together in the existing literature, combining theory and empirics in innovative ways.

This book collates case studies of national and subnational efforts to alleviate inequality and implement development and security policy more effectively, collaboratively, and multidimensionally.While inequality is a fundamental developmental challenge and global phenomenon, responsibility largely falls to the state to address it. This book seeks to provide a specific framework to analyse these efforts at the national and sub-national efforts. It does so through the United Nations' concept of Human Security, whose five core principles provide a good means of addressing inequality's various facets. Each chapter opens by highlighting the specific aspect of human security that is being addressed. Specific issues covered in the volume include local economic development, maritime economies, fishing communities, and governance and public administration.This book will be of keen interest to scholars of development studies, inequality (especially social inequality), and Area Studies.
