This book examines how ideas of war and peace have functioned as organizing frames of reference within the history of political theory. It interprets ten widely read figures in that history within five thematically focused chapters that pair (in order) Schmitt and Derrida, Aquinas and Machiavelli, Hobbes and Kant, Hegel and Nietzsche, and Thucydides and Plato. The book’s substantive argument is that attempts to establish either war or peace as dominant intellectual perspectives obscure too much of political life. The book argues for a style of political theory committed more to questioning than to closure. It challenges two powerful currents in contemporary political philosophy: the verdict that premodern or metaphysical texts cannot speak to modern and postmodern societies, and the insistence that all forms of political theory be some form of democratic theory. What is offered instead is a nontraditional defense of the tradition and a democratic justification for moving beyond democratic theory. Though the book avoids any attempt to show the immediate relevance of these interpretations to current politics, its impetus stems very much from the current political circumstances. Since the beginning of the twenty-first century , a series of wars has eroded confidence in the progressively peaceful character of international relations; citizens of the Western democracies are being warned repeatedly about the threats posed within a dangerous world. In this turbulent context, democratic citizens must think more critically about the actions their governments undertake. The texts interpreted here are valuable resources for such critical thinking.

Syed Hussein Nashr is one of the leading scholars in the field of science and religion relations,  especially in Islamic  world. A study on Nashr’s thought in this field is an important and necessary effort to understand one of the aspects that contribute particualrly to the development of sciences in the Islamic world, and in the Western world generally. The article aims to understand (1) Syed Hussein Nashr’s concept on science? And (2) the relevance of Nashr’s concept on science to the development of discourses in science and religion? This study focuses on Nashr’sconcept on science and its relevance to the development of the science and religion discourse. This study deploys a framework of philosophy of science, while applying descriptive and analitycal methodological approach. This study finds that: first, Nashr’s concept on science bases it self on the principle of unity, that is a concept of one-ness and inter-relationship of all beings, which allows integration of knowledge and action of human being into harmony. Nashr offers idea of sacred knowledge (scientia sacra) to allow the sacred values embeded in Islamic teaching to spiritualize modern sciences which are developed in the Western world. Secondly, Nashr was the first Muslim scholar who wrote a comprehensive work about history of science in Islam. His influence is attributed to his contribution to the dicsussion of science and to a grand narrative, namely, Islamization of knowledge or Islamic science, that had become a major scholarly debate among Muslim scholars.

Buzan and Acharya challenge the discipline of International Relations to reimagine itself in the light of the thinking about, and practice of, international relations and world order from premodern India, China and the Islamic world. This prequel to their 2019 book, The Making of Global International Relations, takes the story back from the two-century tale of modern IR, to reveal the deep global history of the discipline. It shows the multiple origins and meanings of many concepts thought of as only modern and Western. It opens pathways for the rest of the world into this most Eurocentric of disciplines, encouraging them to bring their own histories, concepts and theories with them. The authors have written this book with the hope of inspiring others to extend these pathways by bringing in a wider array of cultures, and exploring how they thought about and acted in worlds composed of multiple, independent, collective actors.

Resumen: Guerra y paz pueden ser pensadas como dos momentos que están destinados a sucederse alternativamente dentro la historia de las relaciones internacionales. Pero también cabe la esperanza de que a través del desarrollo de un orden internacional fuerte pueda conseguirse una paz perpetua o, cuanto menos, duradera. A ese fin han destinado sus esfuerzos numerosos juristas cuyas obras pueden ser enmarcadas dentro del pacifismo jurídico. En este texto se tratará de ordenar los rasgos característicos de esta posición, tomando como división central aquella que separa los autores que han apostado por la prohibición de la guerra de aquellos que han apostado por su progresiva superación. Ambas posiciones compartirán su preferencia por el fortalecimiento de las instituciones internacionales, además de una cierta vocación cosmopolita. Palabras clave: Pacifismo jurídico, guerra, paz, filosofía del derecho internacional. Abstract: War and peace could be thought as two moments bound to succeed each other within the history of international relations. But there is also room for the hope in a perpetual or, at least, sustainable peace thorough the development of a strong international order. Several legal scholars, whose works can be labelled inside the legal pacifism, have devoted their efforts to that end. This paper tries to put some order about the main features of legal pacifism. It takes as a central division their position towards war: some legal pacifists have defended the total outlawry of war, while others have considered preferable a progressive overcoming of war. Both positions will share the preference for strength the international institutions, together with a certain degree of cosmopolitan commitment. Keywords: legal pacifism, war, peace, philosophy of international law.

<p>Each prophet is given a miracle according to the needs and conditions of his people. If the previous prophet was sent by Allah SWT only for certain people, a certain period, and strengthened by materialistic miracles such as the staff of Moses and others, then scientific miracles are very relevant to the people and the present age. This is the greatest scientific miracle in the history of human life. Allah wants every piece of information conveyed by the Koran to materialize someday. When an event and event occurs in accordance with the Koran, the miracle is revealed. So this scientific miracle is always new every time. In the present era, the truth of Islamic science began to unfold. These scientific truths will one day attract humanity to acknowledge the greatness of the Almighty God. By using qualitative descriptive methods, based on the results of research on the texts of the Koran and the Sunnah conducted by modern Muslim and non-Muslim scientists, who come from various fields of science, it is concluded that there is a harmony of scientific facts between the Koran and Hadith with science and this discovery reinforces the truth of both</p>

Abstract Samuel Moyn’s latest book, Humane: How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War, offers a compelling re-reading of the history of the laws of war not as the precursors of international humanitarian law, but as enablers of what he calls “inhumane war”. Instead of advancing the cause of humanization of war, Moyn argues in favour of pacificism and the abolition of war in its entirety. And yet, Moyn’s decision to tell his history through two interconnected but different parts – one on the broader history of the laws of war and another on the very recent present of US domestic politics – forces the book to embrace a North Atlantic, Anglo-American vision of international law that robs it of valuable insights from the Global South and its relationship to the same body of laws. In this review essay, I explore these missed connections seeking to offer a more global approach to the history of war and peace.

Our first contributor is Anwar Ibrahim, the Malaysian Minister ofEducation. He has described in very convincing style the need to differentiatebetween science and non-science. The values, politics, ideology, power, prestigeand polemics of science play an important role in it. In shaping a contemporaryphilosophy of science, Anwar Ibrahim emphasizes the need to infuse the entiresystem of science, its method, its processes, and its goals with the ethicaland value concerns of the world-view of Islam. Our study of the history ofscience in Islam should help us to understand what was original and Islamicabout Islamic science and how the Muslim scientists infused their wrk withIslamic ethics and values and interpreted their task through Muslim eyes.The purpose of developing a contemporary philosophy of Islamic science,according to Anwar Ibrahim, is to help our scientists to construct a globalfoundation for contemporary Islamic knowledge and science. This would allowthe development of a pragmatic philosophy which takes the ethical concernsof Islam into the laboratory. This kind of theory should help prioritize certainresearch, and formulate science policies for Muslim societies.This theory should be able to demonstrate to both Muslims and non-Muslims alike that science not only helps in meeting the intellectual andphysical challenges of modern times but can also solve contemporary problemsof mankind in more satisfying and ethically sound ways.In his opening remarks at the Seminar on ‘‘Paradigms in Pblitical Science:Muslim Perspectives,” organized by the International Institute of IslamicThought (IIIT) and The Association of Muslim Social Scientists (AMSS) inJumada al Awwal 1410/Dec. 1989, Dr. Taha Jabir Al ‘Alwani, President ofIIIT, traced political science in classical Islamic heritage. Al ‘Alwanithat we do not have specializep studies in our classical legacythat may be described today as political thought. Issues related to subjectslike international relations, systems of government, history of diplomacy,political development, or methods of political planning, however, were treatedthrough the medium of fiqh. There were no well-defined divisions betweenall other aspects of life and the political issues as there are’in contemporarysocial sciences. Al ‘Alwani argues that the fiqh of contemporary politics andgovernment must turn to the goals and purposes of Islam, to its generalprinciples and to its precepts. This will build a complete system of politicalthought that will interact with contemporary realities for the realization ofIslam’s greater purposes. Al ‘Alwani, however, warns that theories will haveto be erected upon the basis of accepted Shari‘ah source-evidence, whiledrawing from the experience of historical and contemporary humanity ...

This Handbook maps the contours of an exciting and burgeoning interdisciplinary field concerned with the role of language and languages in situations of conflict. It explores conceptual approaches, sources of information that are available, and the institutions and actors that mediate language encounters. It examines case studies of the role that languages have played in specific conflicts, from colonial times through to the Middle East and Africa today. The contributors provide vibrant evidence to challenge the monolingual assumptions that have affected traditional views of war and conflict. They show that languages are woven into every aspect of the making of war and peace, and demonstrate how language shapes public policy and military strategy, setting frameworks and expectations. The Handbook's 22 chapters powerfully illustrate how the encounter between languages is integral to almost all conflicts, to every phase of military operations and to the lived experiences of those on the ground, who meet, work and fight with speakers of other languages. This comprehensive work will appeal to scholars from across the disciplines of linguistics, translation studies, history, and international relations; and provide fresh insights for a broad range of practitioners interested in understanding the role and implications of foreign languages in war.
