Beyond the Western Liberal Order: Yanaihara Tadao and Empire as Society (The Palgrave Macmillan History of International Thought)

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.
