Jeanne Morefield synthesizes Palestinian American theorist and
cultural critic Edward Said’s critical humanism as a conceptual
approach for addressing crises in contemporary global politics that
demands reflection about historical context and the nature of the
collective public before considering solutions to perceived
problems. Said’s approach to humanistic inquiry speaks directly
to the way scholars of international ethics who speak from a
liberal internationalist perspective react to global crises by
fixating on the international status quo, often advocating global
order for global order’s sake. In the process, Said’s humanism
transforms the very idea of what it means to theorize global ethics
in a postcolonial age and offers a clarifying way to navigate
through foreign policy discussions with conflicting interest groups
and ideologies.
