Cosmopolitan Dystopia shows that rather than populists or
authoritarian great powers it is cosmopolitan liberals who have
done the most to subvert the liberal international order.
Cosmopolitan Dystopia explains how liberal cosmopolitanism has led
us to treat new humanitarian crises as unprecedented demands for
military action, thereby trapping us in a loop of endless war.
Attempts to normalize humanitarian emergency through the doctrine
of the 'responsibility to protect' has made for a paternalist
understanding of state power that undercuts the representative
functions of state sovereignty. The legacy of liberal intervention
is a cosmopolitan dystopia of permanent war, insurrection by
cosmopolitan jihadis and a new authoritarian vision of sovereignty
in which states are responsible for their peoples rather than
responsible to them. This book will be of vital interest to
scholars and students of international relations, IR theory and
human rights. -- .
