Omschrijving
With a specific focus on Asia, this anthology constitutes an excursion into the state of "postethnicity", which has come to characterise the global culture of our times. It brings together prominent contemporary thinkers to address this fundamental aspect of comparative political theory.
This excellent collection is an eye-opener: not only is a truly comparative political theory possible, but, as testified by the essays gathered here, the basic materials—both conceptual and substantive—already exist. One can only hope that Western political thought will now venture farther down the road that Hwa Yol Jung has made available.
Comparative Political Culture in the Age of Globalization is a much needed and richly textured introduction to comparative political theory. The collection of essays focusing on political culture is set within broader philosophical contexts— phenomenological, deconstructive, hermeneutic—and provides the reader with convincing arguments for the importance, indeed today the necessity, of a global perspective that gives credence to a plurality of values and ways of making human experience intelligible.
Hwa Yol Jung is Professor of Political Science at Moravian College.
