| Abstract | "This book reinvigorates the governmentality debate in International Relations (IR) by stressing the interconnectedness between governmentality and globality. It addresses a widening gap in the social sciences and humanities by reconciling Michel Foucault's concept of 'governmentality' with global politics. The volume assembles leading scholars who draw attention to the importance of approaching governmentality in IR from the perspective of globality and thereby highlights the need to consider governmentality and globality as fundamentally entangled. Accordingly, instead of any scaling-up of governmentality, the contributors argue that globality cannot be equated with the international level and should rather be considered as a genuine context of its own requiring distinct consideration. The book builds on the increasing importance and popularity of governmentality studies, not only by updating Foucault's concepts at a theoretical level, but also by introducing novel empirical problems and practices of global governmentality that have not hitherto been explored in IR"-- Provided by publisher. |
