Publisher's Synopsis
The purpose of this book is to evaluate the current international order and its efficiency and ability to achieve and maintain peace and justice through the philosophical debate on the foundation theories of state and order. Adding non-western perspectives and theories to the debate to make it more inclusive in a colorful papyrus, it is comprehensive and truly international with the inclusion of wider range of civilizations and much wider scope of history. A papyrus is able to widen the scope of the international relations theory as a discipline to cope with the profound changes in the order and reflect the thoughts of the new rising powers and global south, with the inclusion of ancient Arab, Egyptian, and Chinese philosophies and ideas on the order and its purpose, function, efficiency, and raison d'etre, along with the ancient Greek philosophies of Aristotle and Plato and the classics of the social contract theorists and others.
