Beyond the Western Liberal Order: Yanaihara Tadao and Empire as Society by Ryoko Nakano

This book introduces the political thought of Yanaihara Tadao (1893-1961), the most prominent Japanese social scientist working on empire, population migration and colonial policy, and uses it as a platform which to examine the global challenges faced by the U.S. hegemonic world order today, or what is often described as the Western liberal order.

Beyond the Western Liberal Order Reviews

Nakano sets out to intervene in at least two critical spaces in the modern history of political ideas: first, within the ever-expanding field of theory from 'beyond' the conventional regional and cultural boundaries of political thought; and second, within the deeply provocative intersection of empire and international society. In one of the few works to take his contribution seriously in English, Nakano succeeds in demonstrating how Yanaihara Tadao manages to straddle these two sites and brings valuable insight to all students of international order, politics, and justice. - Chris Goto-Jones, Professor of Comparative Philosophy and Political Thought, Leiden University
