COMPARATIVE POLITICAL THEORY:

More about the book

The book explores the evolution of comparative political theory, rooted in responses to the Cold War and the quest for cosmopolitanism, which sought equitable engagement among diverse cultures. It highlights the decline of stable identity concepts influenced by phenomenology and post-modernism, emphasizing the importance of understanding the self in relation to the "other." This ongoing dialogue between self and other remains crucial today, reflecting the continuing relevance of these intellectual movements in addressing contemporary social needs and challenges.
