Bringing together an international team of contributors, this
volume draws on international political theory and intellectual
history to rethink the problem of a pluralistic world order.
Inspired by the work of international political theorist Nicholas
Rengger, the book focuses on three main areas of Rengger’s
contribution to the political theory of international relations:
his Augustine-inspired idea of an ‘Anti-Pelagian Imagination’;
his Oakeshottian argument for a pluralist ‘conversation of
mankind’; and his ruminations on war as the uncivil condition in
world politics. Through a critical engagement with his work, the
book illuminates the promises and limitations of civility as a
sceptical, non-utopian, anti-perfectionist approach to theorizing
world order that transcends both realist pessimism and liberal
utopianism.
