{"product_id":"international-politics-of-recognition-thomas-lindemann-9781594518102","title":"International Politics of Recognition","description":"The origins of international conflict are often explained by security dilemmas, power-rivalries or profits for political or economic elites. Common to these approaches is the idea that human behaviour is mostly governed by material interests which principally involve the quest for power or wealth. The authors question this truncated image of human rationality. Borrowing the concept of recognition from models developed in philosophy and sociology, this book provides a unique set of applications to the problems of international conflict, and argues that human actions are often not motivated by a pursuit of utility maximisation as much as they are by a quest to gain recognition. This unique approach will be a welcome alternative to the traditional models of international conflict.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Lindemann, Erik Ringmar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1594518106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781594518102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Thomas Lindemann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110724849919,"sku":"9781594518102","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e1c7ca84-5791-480b-b20f-4187a20b8404.jpg?v=1725469587","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/international-politics-of-recognition-thomas-lindemann-9781594518102","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
