330 .. $a "Michael J. Shapiro's writings have been innovatory with respect to the phenomena
he has taken to be political, and the concomitant array of methods that he has brilliantly
mastered. This book draws from his vast output of articles, chapters and books to
provide a thematic yet integrated account of his boundary-crossing innovations in
political theory and masterly contributions to our understanding of methods in the
social sciences. The editors have focused on work in three key areas: Discourse: Shapiro
was one of the first theorists to demonstrate convincingly, and in a manner that has
had a long-standing impact on the field, that language is not epiphenomenal to politics.
Indeed, he shows that language is constitutive of politics. From his frequently-cited
article on metaphor from the early 1980s to recent work on discourse and globalization,
Shapiro has shown that politics happens not only with and through the use of language,
but within discourse as a material practice. ; Culture: Gabriel Almond and Sidney
Verba's (1963) famous work on 'The Civic Culture' established a long-held but ultimately
counterproductive relationship between culture and politics, one in which culture
is an independent variable that has effects on politics. Samuel Huntington's (1998)
(in)famous polemic, 'The Clash of Civilizations', only pushes this relationship to
its breaking point. Shapiro's rich and numerous writings on culture provide a powerful
and important antidote to this approach, as Shapiro consistently shows (across wide-ranging
contexts) that politics is in culture and culture is in politics, and no politically
salient approach to culture can afford to turn either term into a causal variable.
; Violence: While violence is surely not a theme foreign to political studies, no
one has done more or better work in contemporary political theory to bring violence
into play as a central term of political thought and to expand our understanding of
violence. By reconceptualizing and reinterpreting this term, Shapiro's work has helped
us to rethink the very boundaries between political theory and international relations
as putatively separate subfields of political science. And it explains why both political
theorists interested in International Relations and International Relations scholars
concerned with a broader understanding of international politics must both start with
Shapiro's work as required reading."--Publisher's website
