Product Information
The Foreign Encounter In Myth And Religion is the second volume of Modes of Foreign Relations and Political Economy , a three-volume project which is changing the way we think about international relations. In the first, Deutscher prize-winning volume, Kees van der Pijl introduced the ground-breaking argument that our current international system of nation states is merely a historically specific form of foreign relations, rather than a permanent fixture. Now he traces the key characteristics of 'foreign encounters' over time, showing that myth, religion and ethical philosophies have always informed the way that societies have interacted with outsiders. This points us towards the future state of international relations. A truly masterful work, The Foreign Encounter In Myth And Religion , is a must for upper-undergraduates and academics at the cutting edge of international relations theory.

In radical opposition to the reductionism that plagues most every theoretical tendency today, Kees van der Pijl challenges us to understand the world in its full complexity and contradictory actuality. Taking up the topic of The Foreign Encounter in Myth and Religion, van der Pijl emulates the best of Lévi-Strauss in attempting to identify truths common to all human societies as well as the historical specificity of each articulation of these truths. In the process, he shows us the necessity of myth for the constitution and reproduction of political communities, the importance of desire and trauma in foreign relations, and, most fundamentally, the similarities between our societies and those of our enemies., As the postwar world order crumbles, the relevance of Kees Van der Pijl's bold and far-sighted project of historicising the world order, of understanding its successive configurations as 'modes of foreign relations', becomes clearer. Only such an exercise can support, and free, our imaginations to construct a better one, whether it remains capitalist or not. Following the historical account of volume one, the second volume breathtakingly unites insights hitherto scattered among history, anthropology, literature, psychology and psychoanalysis. The result is an exploration of the mythical, religious, cultural and ideological themes through which the historically and geographically distinct communities' modes of foreign relations have been understood, organised and narrated. It will surely function as a grand cathartic exercise, tracing the elements of the inchoate amalgam of notions and prejudices about the 'other' and the foreign which today so mis-governs our world order to their origins, and potentially liberating us from them. We await the third volume with anticipation., 'A brilliant treatise on the 'foreign encounter'.
