It should not be monopolised by the Western liberal paradigm. Thirty years after the end of the Cold War, global conflicts have been satisfactorily resolved neither by communism nor liberalism. Humanitarian intervention, now under the cover of the responsibility to protect (R2P), has destabilised many societies, leaving justice undone. This inspiring book invites debates on the post-liberal imagination of "emancipated Leviathan": an almighty political authority which exercises awe and force to restore order, as well as enshrines globally-negotiated values of common conscience and reinvented cosmopolitanism. Human well-being will truly become reality when we synergise pre-modern and pre-liberal ways of thinking, worldviews, ethics, and aesthetic styles by means of cross-civilisational, cross-disciplinary fundamental research, and let an emancipated Leviathan exercises principles and laws of virtue derived from the study. The starting point of such intellectual innovation is China. This book explores the application of classical Chinese resources to the innovation of thoughts in contemporary Chinese international relations (IR). It examines whether "Knowledge Archaeology of Chinese International Relations" (KACIR), coined by the author, responds sensibly to today's issues of international ethics and global justice. The book contends that emancipative hermeneutics holds the key to the Chinese soft power puzzle. A bottom-up, non-nationalistic, and non-ethnocentric approach to the Chinese civilisation will reinvent intellectual pluralism and cosmopolitan elements in the Chinese tradition that interact constructively with and ultimately transcend the liberal Western model. Strolling from contemporary IR back to ancient Chinese philosophy then stride into the future searching common principles and laws, this insightful book is a must read for readers who want to reflect on global conflicts in this era of great uncertainty and great transformation, also for those who love to make our world a better place to live in"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a International relations $x Research $z China. 651 0 $a China $x Foreign relations $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Internationalism. 650 0 $a Liberalism. 650 0 $a Equality. 650 0 $a State, The. 650 0 $a Scholars $z China. 650 6 $a Relations internationales $x Recherche $z Chine. 651 6 $a Chine $x Relations exterieures $y 21e siecle. 650 6 $a Internationalisme. 650 6 $a Liberalisme. 650 6 $a Etat. 650 6 $a Savants $z Chine. 650 7 $a internationalism. $2 aat 650 7 $a liberalism. $2 aat 650 7 $a Equality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914456 650 7 $a International relations $x Research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977082 650 7 $a Internationalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977173 650 7 $a Liberalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00997183 650 7 $a Scholars. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01106878 650 7 $a State, The. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01131943 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517010546.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1AE79942BFA611ECA5AD8FDE3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
