{"product_id":"civilizations-and-world-order-fred-dallmayr-9781498501545","title":"Civilizations and World Order: Geopolitics and Cultural Difference","description":"\u003cbr\u003eCivilizations and World Order: Geopolitics and Cultural Difference examines the role of civilizations in the context of the existing and possible world order(s) from a cross-cultural and inter-disciplinary perspective. Contributions seek to clarify the meaning of such complex and contested notions as \"civilization,\" \"order,\" and \"world order\"; they do so by taking into account political, economic, cultural, and philosophical dimensions of social life. The book deals with its main theme from three angles or vectors: first, the geopolitical or power-political context of civilizations; secondly, the different roles of civilizations or cultures against the backdrop of \"post-coloniality\" and \"Orientalism\"; and thirdly, the importance of ideological and regional differences as factors supporting or obstructing world order(s). All in all, the different contributions demonstrate the impact of competing civilizational trajectories on the functioning or malfunctioning of contemporary world order.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Dallmayr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498501540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498501545\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.90d","brand":"Fred Dallmayr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124184772863,"sku":"9781498501545","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4e2b076b-4530-40ff-a131-fa1fca1b2407.jpg?v=1687435243","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/civilizations-and-world-order-fred-dallmayr-9781498501545","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
