This major new book tackles key questions on Europe in the context
of shifting parameters of East and West. The contributors -
sociologists, anthropologists, philosophers and historians - show,
from a variety of different perspectives, that the conventional
equation of Europe with the West must be questioned. Featuring four
thematically organized chapters, the book looks at: a post-Western
world Asia in Europe: encounters in history between Europe and Asia
otherness in Europe and Asia. Exploring new expressions of European
self-understanding in a way that challenges recent ideological
notions of the 'clash of civilizations', this outstanding work
draws on recent scholarship that shows how Europe and Asia were
mutually linked in history and in contemporary perspective. It
argues that as a result of current developments and the changing
geopolitical context, both Europe and Asia have much in common and
that it is possible to speak of cosmopolitan links rather than
clashes. This book will be of great value to students and
researchers in the fields of sociology, European politics and
history and cultural theory.
