Rule in international politics
There is hardly any aspect of social, political, and economic life today
that is not also governed internationally. Drawing on debates around
hierarchy, hegemony, and authority in international politics, this volume
takes the study of the international “beyond anarchy” a step further by
establishing the concept of rule as the defining feature of order in the
international realm. The contributors argue that the manifold conceptual
approaches to sub- and superordination in the international should be
understood as rich conceptualizations of one concept: rule. Rule allows
constellations of sub- and superordination in the international to be seen
as multiplex, systemic, and normatively ambiguous phenomena that
need to be studied in the context of their interplay and consequences.
This volume draws on a variety of conceptualizations of rule, exploring,
in particular, the practices of rule as well as the relational and dynamic
characteristics of rule in international politics.
