International Relations - A Philosophical Interpretation - Hardcover

by Ajit Kumar Sinha (Author)

This book offers a novel philosophical interpretation of International Relations (IR) and critically analyses the dynamics of IR on its ontological basis, cognitive tools, telic principles, creative cultural nuclei, militarization, conflict resolution strategies, and emerging open socio-political system oriented towards equality of human rights, ecological harmony, elimination of political inconsistencies, respect for peace and law, and global order. Scanning across the scenarios in China, India, Afghanistan, Latin America, and other third-world countries (TWCs), the book inspects the insurgence of political awakening in TWCs, China's emerging as a global power, India's emerging economy, Japan's pacifist strategy, and the impact of the Israel-Palestinian conflict on the Middle East. The book delves into an in-depth analysis of the domestic and foreign policies of the two superpowers, the USA and the erstwhile USSR (Russian Federation). The nexus between defence preparedness of the countries and dynamics of foreign policies has been critically appraised in the book with a final note on emerging prospects of World Order as a Futuristic Model through global consciousness, harmony, tolerance, advanced technological and empirical knowledge.
