oapen-20.500.12657-472962021-03-16T01:45:33Z A Buddhist Approach to International Relations Long, William J. International Relations Theory International Security Studies International Relations Buddhism Politics Asoka Buthan Open Access bic Book Industry Communication::J Society & social sciences::JP Politics & government::JPS International relations This book is an open access book. Many scholars have wondered if a non-Western theory of international politics founded on different premises, be it from Asia or from the “Global South,” could release international relations from the grip of a Western, “Westphalian” model. This book argues that a Buddhist approach to international relations could provide a genuine alternative. Because of its distinctive philosophical positions and its unique understanding of reality, human nature and political behavior, a Buddhist theory of IR offers a way out of this dilemma, a means for transcending the Westphalian predicament. The author explains this Buddhist IR model, beginning with its philosophical foundations up through its ideas about politics, economics and statecraft. 2021-03-15T13:30:14Z 2021-03-15T13:30:14Z 2021 book ONIX_20210315_9783030680428_20 9783030680428 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/47296 eng application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 9783030680428 https://www.springer.com/9783030680428 Springer Nature Palgrave Macmillan 10.1007/978-3-030-68042-8 10.1007/978-3-030-68042-8 6c6992af-b843-4f46-859c-f6e9998e40d5 07f599ed-370a-4d0e-b8a9-a1d89f09981c 9783030680428 Palgrave Macmillan 107 [grantnumber unknown] open access
