This book reinvigorates the governmentality debate in International
Relations (IR) by stressing the interconnectedness between
governmentality and globality. It addresses a widening gap in the
social sciences and humanities by reconciling Michel Foucault's
concept of "governmentality" with global politics. The volume
assembles leading scholars who draw attention to the importance of
approaching governmentality in IR from the perspective of
globality, and thereby suggests to consider governmentality and
globality as fundamentally entangled. Accordingly, the contributors
engage in a multifaceted debate about the relationship of
governmentality and globality, relating their views to the
proposition that globality cannot be equated with the international
level and should rather be considered as a genuine context of its
own requiring distinct consideration. The book builds on the
increasing importance and popularity of governmentality studies,
not only by updating Foucault's concepts at a theoretical level,
but also by introducing novel empirical problems and practices of
global governmentality that have not hitherto been explored in IR.
With a wide theoretical and empirical range, it is relevant not
only to IR in general and International Political Sociology in
particular, but to any student or practitioner in political
science, political theory, geography, sociology, or the humanities.
