Recenzii
deeply impressive - this is scholarship of the highest order
a clear and insightful treatment of the intersections of theology and international relations that raises important questions for theologians and international relations theorists alike.
In this masterful work, William Bain demolishes many of the myths that still underlie the discipline and history of international relations...Political Theology of International Order is a work of rare depth and texture, which has the undoubted merit of challenging many of the most widespread political mythologies.
Bain has achieved great success. The book offers a thorough and definitive rethinking of conventional narratives about the secular character of modern international order by showing how they fail to acknowledge their continued theological contingency and ultimate Eurocentricity...the depth of detail in which the historical rethinking of internatipronal order is conducted, combined with the breadth of intellectual history covered, suggests that this book will reward reading and rereading by scholars of international order for many years to come.
an excellent recovery of historical theology as fundamental to modern international theory
To sum up, Bain has written an accessible and potentially game-changing book that seeks to build bridges where there are currently only impassable chasms. Political Theology International Order is precisely the kind of text I would — and someday will — use toward the end of my undergraduate course in Medieval Political Thought...I recommend it...without reservation to all who are interested in — and interested in teaching about — the medieval roots of the modern world order.
William Bain has written a great book: it is well conceptualized (instead of just relying on the usual common places that reverberate within the networks of the discipline), careful and nuanced in its argumentation, and illuminating for readers who dare to follow him on this unorthodox exploration.
Bain's story is compelling, woven together through numerous feats of interpretation. It merits becoming a landmark.
