Political Theory Without Borders

Political theory has traditionally focused on governance within the confines of a specific polity. However, with the recent proliferation of environmental realities and national decisions that have global repercussions, it must now be re-imagined to confront globalisation head-on.

Political Theory Without Borders presents a collection of scholarship that embraces this challenge. Each chapter focuses on answering specific questions that have arisen from issues of global spilloverβ€”like climate change and pollutionβ€”and the increasingly unrestricted flow of people, products, and financial capital across borders.

With contributions from emerging scholars alongside key texts from some of the most well-known theorists of previous generations, this collection illustrates how the classic concerns of political theoryβ€”justice and equality, liberty and oppressionβ€”have re-emerged with renewed significance at the global level.
