For a long time, international relations scholars have adopted a
narrow view of what is global order, who are its makers and
managers, and what means they employ to realize their goals. Amitav
Acharya argues that the nature and scope of agency in the global
order - who creates it and how - needs to be redefined and
broadened. Order is built not by material power alone, but also by
ideas and norms. While the West designed the post-war order, the
non-Western countries were not passive. They contested and
redefined Western ideas and norms, and contributed new ones of
their own making. This book examines such acts of agency,
especially the redefinitions of sovereignty and security, shaping
contemporary world politics. With the decline of Western dominance,
ideas and agency from the Rest may make it possible to imagine and
build a truly global order.
