Reviews

'The second volume of a trilogy, this brilliantly conceived and executed book draws on multiple disciplines (sociology, law, history, and political theory) to develop its central argument. Cultural diversity is patterned by diversity regimes (Ottoman, Chinese, Westphalian) and traceable in a large number of variegated domains (such as religion, gender, law, and global cultural heritage). The compelling results are a wake-up call for much IR scholarship. Culture nap time is over.' Peter J. Katzenstein, Walter S. Carpenter, Jr. Professor of International Studies, Cornell University, New York 'This volume pulls off a seemingly impossible task: to illuminate the role of culture in international orders without treating 'culture' as static, homogenous and bounded. Once and for all we can see beyond the clash of civilizations to better apprehend how cultural diversity matters for world politics.'
