How would the history of international relations in 'the East' be
written if we did not always read the ending - the Rise of the West
and the decline of the East - into the past? What if we did not
assume that Asia was just a residual category, a variant of
'not-Europe', but saw it as a space of with its own particular
history and sociopolitical dynamics, not defined only by encounters
with European colonialism? How would our understanding of
sovereignty, as well as our theories about the causes of the
decline of Great Powers and international orders, change as a
result? For the first time, Before the West offers a grand
narrative of (Eur)Asia as a space connected by normatively and
institutionally overlapping successive world orders originating
from the Mongol Empire. It also uses that history to rethink the
foundational concepts and debates of international relations, such
as order and decline.
