Tired of Cold War political analysis about post-Cold War events, zero-sum game theories,
and world history as only one war after another? Disobedient Histories in Ancient
and Modern Times: Regionalism, Governance, War and Peace breaks tradition by considering
some alternative Western and non-Western international relations theories found in
historical, anthropological, literary, archaeological, genetic and physical evidence
from some ancient and modern societies in Europe, Africa and Asia. Chapters in this
comparative history book explore the deep backstory of the South Asian Association
for Regional Cooperation, the Association for Southeast Asian Nations, Scandinavian
Progressivism in international development, Welsh cultural preservation, North African
feminism and political traditions in Tunisia, and the Gulf Cooperation Council. Other
chapters explore the backstory of ideas leading to the rise of the ultranationalist
National Front political party and the Charlie Hebdo magazine attack in France and
also the zombie economics behind Boko Haram in Nigeria. The international relations
theories in these disobedient histories suggest that the global peace, prosperity
and dignity present in the United Nations Millennium and Sustainable Development Goals
are viable.
