Civilizations in World
Politics
Plural and Pluralist Perspectives
Edited by Peter J. Katzenstein, Cornell University,
USA
‘For a state of the art view
of civilization in world
politics, look no further.’
- Iver B. Neumann, Norwegian
Institute of International Affairs
(NUPI), Norway
‘Rescuing the concept of
civilizations from the
polemical jaws of Samuel
Huntington, this book shows
how civilization can be a
vibrant category of analysis
and how collectivities
around the world unite and divide around it. With
characteristic flair, erudition, provocation, and
rigor, Peter Katzenstein has assembled a first-rate
team of scholars that demonstrates that civilization
is a concept that can and must be taken seriously.
Although scholars might prefer to ‘love to hate’
the concept, or to ignore it, this volume shows the
path to be a fruitful and necessary engagement.’
