Recenzii
‘This festschrift celebrates A.K. Ramakrishnan’s enduring challenge to hegemonic knowledge in IR. Through critical engagements with postcolonial theory, Islamic cosmopolitanism, gender, artificial intelligence, and the Palestinian question, the contributors demonstrate how IR must be “undisciplined” to confront its own colonial inheritances. The volume offers scholars of South and West Asia a rigorous and politically conscious framework for reimagining the discipline.’
- JAMES ONLEY, Ahmed Seddiqi Chair in Gulf and Middle Eastern Studies, American University of Sharjah, UAE
‘Subscribing to A.K.Ramakrshnan’s line of thinking, this volume stands for a refocusing of IR theory away from the traditional domains of nation-state, power, diplomacy, and security. Repositioning the discipline which in its popular imagination is profoundly grounded in Eurocentric, elitist and statist experiences, this work draws attention to the differently situated experiences of people and movements of global south, such as women, minorities, refugees, whose voices were previously unheard of or completely excluded from the mainstream IR. Touching a relatively unchartered terrain, this book contributes significantly to the reimagining of conventional IR.’
- M.H.ILIAS, Professor and former Dean, Faculty of Social Sciences, Mahatma Gandhi University, India
‘Deeply impressed by the excellence of the contents of the festschrift to honour the unique contributions made by Prof. Ramakrishnan to his discipline. His philosophical approach to the discipline is humanity- centred and not state-centred. For him the state is only an instrument devised by humans. As a professional diplomat, I recall with joy and gratitude my conversations with him. His work is a study in holistic reasoning and rare clarity.’
