Letter from the editors:

We are delighted to present the 2018 Columbia University Press political science catalog.

9780231188142 The titles featured here demonstrate the expanding footprint of Columbia

University Press as we renew our focus on American politics and continue a long tradition of publishing top scholarship in security studies, international politics, and political theory.

As the United States asserts its position in the ever-evolving international community, Columbia continues to publish strong offerings in U.S. foreign relations and policy. In

Psychology of a Superpower, Chris Fettweis examines how the idea of American supremacy

affects the minds of the foreign policy elite and their decision-making. With Us and Against Us by security studies scholar Stephen Tankel explores how United States alliances to

combat terrorism at home and abroad are more complicated than they appear. In The Return of Bipolarity, Oystein Tunsjo argues that the international order is sliding back toward a

superpower stand-off between China and the United States. He discusses the ramifications of this shift for the two nations and the rest of the world. In A Nation Like All Others,

eminent historian Warren Cohen offers a frank and revealing assessment of three hundred

years of American foreign relations, including its triumphs and foibles. And in The Conflicted

Superpower, Anthony B. Kennedy explores the paradoxical dilemma facing the United States as issue of collaborating on innnovatiove technological with coun like India anmd China

Global issues continue to dominate the headlines, and Columbia’s list in international and

global politics reflects today’s major developments. Esteemed international politics scholars gather to discuss the future of the international order after Trump in Chaos in the Liberal

Order, and a new edition of Nuclear North Korea by Victor Cha and David Kang updates an essential text on understanding the dilemma of engagement with the DRPK in the Kim Jong Un era. Two new titles also explore the shifting political landscape in the Middle

East: Curtis Ryan’s Jordan and the Arab Uprisings and Mohammad Tabaar’s study of Iranian politics, Religious Statecraft.

Our political-theory list features Etienne Balibar’s new book, Secularism and Cosmopolitanism, and three incisive accounts of terrorism and political violence: Genealogies of Terrorism by

Verena Erlenbusch, Queer Terror by Heike Schotten, and Naming Violence by Mathias Thaler.

Sincerely, Stephen Wesley, editor, American politics & US foreign relations Caelyn Cobb, editor, international relations, comparative politics & security studies Wendy Lochner, publisher, political theory

The Economy of the Gulf States

Oil and Political Survival in the Persian Gulf

Matthew Gray

Jim Krane

In Energy Kingdoms, Jim Krane takes readers inside the Gulf monarchies to consider the conundrum facing these states. He traces the history of their energy use and policies, looking in particular at how energy subsidies have distorted demand.

Oil exports are the lifeblood of their politicaleconomic systems—and the basis of their strategic importance—but domestic consumption has begun eating into exports while climate change threatens to render the region uninhabitable.

Covering the period since 1945, with a focus on the last twenty years, Matthew Gray outlines the main factors that have shaped the political economies of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. His analysis includes problems of state formation and ruling elite legitimacy, the role of oil and energy, the challenges of economic geography, the wider international political setting and its impacts, and constraints to economic reform.

Confronting Inequality

Trump, the Klan, and the Mainstreaming of

How Societies Can Choose Inclusive Growth

Resentment

Rory McVeigh and Kevin Estep

Jonathan D. Ostry, Prakash Loungani, and Andrew Berg Foreword by Joseph E. Stiglitz

Inequality has drastically increased in many countries around the globe over the past three decades. The widening gap between the very rich and everyone else is often portrayed as an unexpected outcome or as the tradeoff we must accept to achieve economic growth. In this book, three International Monetary Fund economists show that this increase in inequality has in fact been a political choice—and explain what policies we should choose instead to achieve a more inclusive economy.

Rory McVeigh and Kevin Estep trace the parallels between the 1920s Klan and today’s right-wing backlash, identifying the conditions that push white nationalism into electorial politics. Mirroring the Klan’s earlier tactics, Donald Trump delivered a message that mingled economic populism with deep cultural resentments. McVeigh and Estep present a sociological analysis of the Klan’s outbreaks that goes beyond Trump the individual to show how his rise to power was made possible by a convergence of circumstances.

Postcolonial Theory

Essays on Decolonization

A Critical Introduction Second edition

Achille Mbembe

Achille Mbembe is one of the world’s most profound critics of colonialism and its consequences.

In Out of the Dark Night, he offers a rich analysis of the paradoxes of the postcolonial moment that points toward new liberatory models of community and humanity. In a nuanced consideration of the African experience, Mbembe makes sweeping interventions into debates about citizenship, identity, democracy, and modernity. He ranges across European and African thought to provide a powerful assessment of common ways of writing and thinking about Africa. $30.00 / £24.00 cloth 978-0-231-16028-5 2019 208 pages

Leela Gandhi

In this revised edition, Gandhi examines recent alliances with critical race theory and Africanist postcolonialism, considers challenges from postsecular and postcritical perspectives, and takes into account the ontological, environmental, affective, and ethical turns in the changed landscape of critical theory. $26.00 / £20.00 paper 978-0-231-17839-6 $80.00 / £62.00 cloth 978-0-231-17838-9 December 2018 224 pages

Changing Cultures in Congress

Psychology of a Superpower

Donald R. Wolfensberger

Christopher J. Fettweis

From Fair Play to Power Plays

Security and Dominance in U.S. Foreign Policy

Through historical sketches and case studies from the past decade under both Republican and Democratic majorities, Donald R. Wolfensberger shows how both parties have gamed what the founders intended to be an impartial set of legislative rules into a system that advantages majorities and marginalizes minorities. Wolfensberger gives a thorough and persuasive explanation for our legislative leaders’ inability to find substantive policy solutions that are in the national interest.

Combining security, strategy, and psychology, Christopher J. Fettweis investigates how the idea of being number one affects the decision-making of America’s foreign-policy elite. He examines the role the United States plays in providing global common goods, such as peace and security; the effect of the Cold War’s end on nuclear-weapon strategy and policy; the psychological consequences of unbalanced power; and the grand strategies that have emerged in unipolarity.

Forms of Pluralism and Democratic Constitutionalism

The Age of Populism Representation and its Discontents Catherine Fieschi

Edited by Andrew Arato, Jean L. Cohen, and Astrid von Busekist

In this interdisciplinary volume, prominent international scholars consider alternative political formations to the nation-state, particularly these alternatives’ ability to preserve and expand the achievements of democratic constitutionalism in the twenty-first century. $35.00 / £27.00 paper 978-0-231-18703-9 $105.00 / £81.00 cloth 978-0-231-18702-2 2018 392 pages

Catherine Fieschi looks beyond definitional issues to examine why populism and populist parties have become a feature of our politics. She shows how new dynamics unleashed by social media—the fantasy of radical transparency, the demand for immediacy, and the rejection of expert truth and facts—have been harnessed by populism, enabling it to make new inroads into a formerly unreceptive political landscape. $25.00 paper 978-1-788210-25-6 $90.00 cloth 978-1-788210-24-9 November 2018 224 pages

Powers of the Mind

The Practice of Political Theory

Mental and Manual Labor in the Contemporary Political Crisis

Rorty and Continental Thought

Michael Bray

Clayton Chin

Michael Bray argues that the Marxist conception of the division between mental and manual labor is a critical yet unrecognized aspect of contemporary political struggles. Bray traces the conceptual and sociopolitical history of this labor division and emphasizes how the forms of control and organization that it articulates in practices of production, democracy, racialization, and financialization are becoming increasingly important.

Clayton Chin illustrates the significance of Richard Rorty’s thought for contemporary political thinking, casting his conception of “philosophy as cultural politics” as a resource for new models of sociopolitical criticism. He juxtaposes Rorty’s pragmatism with the ontological turn, illuminating them as alternative interventions in the current debate over the crisis of foundations in philosophy.

Avicenna and the Aristotelian Left

Political Categories

Thinking Beyond Concepts

Ernst Bloch

Michael Marder

Translated by Loren Goldman and Peter Thompson

Ernst Bloch argues that the great medieval Islamic philosopher Avicenna (Ibn Sina) planted the seeds of a radical materialism still relevant for critical theory today. He contrasts Avicenna’s and Aquinas’s interpretations of Aristotle on form and matter, arguing that Avicenna’s reading democratizes power and undermines clerical and political authority. $25.00 / £20.00 paper 978-0-231-17535-7 $75.00 / £58.00 cloth 978-0-231-17534-0

Michael Marder proposes a new methodology for political science and philosophy, one which he terms “categorial thinking.” Under this lens, the political appears not as a singular concept but as a family of categories, allowing room for new, plural, and often antagonistic ideas about the state, the people, sovereignty, and power. $30.00 /£24.00 paper 978-0-231-18869-2 $90.00 / £70.00 cloth 978-0-231-18868-5 January 2019 256 pages

The New Authoritarianism

Making Sense of the Alt-Right

A Risk Analysis of the Alt-Right Phenomenon

George Hawley

Edited by Alan Waring

During the 2016 election, a new term entered the American political lexicon: “alt-right.” George Hawley provides an accessible introduction to this troubling racist movement, detailing its origins, evolution, methods, and core belief in white nationalism through exclusive interviews and a careful study of the alt-right’s influential texts.

This volume considers from a risk perspective the current phenomenon of the new alt-right authoritarianism and whether it represents “real” democracy or an unacceptable hegemony potentially resulting in elected dictatorships, abuses and dysfunctional government.

Slovenia in the European Union

The Hungarian Far Right

Human Rights, National Identity, and Sovereignty

Social Demand, Political Supply, and International Context

Toby M. Applegate

Péter Krekó and Attila Juhász

Far-right politics in Hungary―including Jobbik and Fidesz, political parties with a populist, nativist, authoritarian approach, Eastern and pro-Russian orientation, and strong anti-Western stance―are the product of the problematic transformation period that is typical for post-communist countries. They are also, however, the product of a “populist zeitgeist” (present in the West as well) characterized by declining trust in representative democratic and supranational institutions, politicians, experts, and the mainstream media.

Toby M. Applegate analyzes political obstacles confronting Slovenia's leaders following the country's admission to the Euporan Union. He explores how achieving indepedence has forced Slovenia to sacrifice a portion of its newly-earned sovereignty; and how losing that portion of sovereignty can be reconciled with the European Union’s purported goals as a protector of human rights.

How the United Nations Built Spaceship Earth Perrin Selcer

Zhihua Shen and Yafeng Xia

Leading diplomatic historians Zhihua Shen and Yafeng Xia draw on previously untapped primary source materials revealing tensions and rivalries to offer a unique account of the China–North Korea relationship. They significantly revise existing narratives of the Korean War, China’s postwar aid to North Korea, Kim Il-sung’s ideological and strategic thinking, North Korea’s relations with the Soviet Union, and the importance of the Sino-U.S. rapprochement, among other issues.

Perrin Selcer tells the story of how the United Nations built the international knowledge infrastructure that made the global-scale environment visible. He traces how UN programs such as UNESCO’s Arid Lands Project, the production of a soil map of the world, and plans for a global environmental-monitoring system fell short of utopian ambitions to cultivate world citizens but did produce an international community of experts with influential connections to national governments.

Journalism Under Fire

Troubling Transparency

Protecting the Future of Investigative Reporting

The History and Future of Freedom of Information

Stephen Gillern

Stephen Gillers argues that law and public policy must strengthen the freedom of the press, including protection for news gathering and confidential sources. He analyzes the First Amendment’s Press Clause, drawing on older Supreme Court cases and recent dissenting opinions to argue for greater press freedom than the Supreme Court is willing to recognize today. Gillers weaves together questions of journalistic practice, law, and policy to ensure a future for investigative reporting and its role in our democracy.

Edited by David E. Pozen and Michael Schudson

Troubling Transparency brings together leading scholars from different disciplines to analyze freedom of information policies in the United States and abroad—how they are working, how they are failing, and how they might be improved. Contributors investigate the creation of FOIA; its day-to-day uses and limitations for the news media and for corporate and citizen requesters; its impact on government agencies; its global influence; alternatives to the FOIA model raised by the recent emergence of “open data,” and other approaches to transparency.

Deciding What’s True

Resistance and the Politics of Truth

The Rise of Political FactChecking in American Journalism

Foucault, Deleuze, Badiou Iain MacKenzie

“The truth will set you free” is a maxim central to both theories and practices of resistance. In the second half of the twentieth century, however, this claim came under fire from an array of critical perspectives. Iain MacKenzie analyses two of the most compelling of these perspectives: the poststructuralist politics of truth formulated by Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze and the alternative post-foundational account of truth and militancy developed by Alain Badiou. $30.00 / £24.00 paper 978-3-8376-3907-0 2018 148 pages

In No Place for Russia, William H. Hill traces the development of the post–Cold War European security order to explain today’s tensions, showing how attempts to integrate Russia into a unified EuroAtlantic security order were gradually overshadowed by the domination of NATO and the EU—at Russia’s expense. Closing with Russia’s annexation of Crimea and war in eastern Ukraine, No Place for Russia argues that the post–Cold War security order in Europe has been irrevocably shattered and will be replaced by a new, as-yet-undefined order. $40.00 / £30.00 cloth 978-0-231704588 2018 536 pages

Facing Up to Low Productivity Growth

The EU in an Age of Transformation

Edited by Adam Posen and Jeromin Zettelmeyer

In this volume, a dozen renowned scholars analyze the impact of sustained lower productivity growth on public finances, social protection, trade, capital flows, wages, inequality, and, ultimately, politics in the advanced industrial world. They conclude that slow productivity growth could lead to unpredictable and possibly dangerous new problems, aggravating inequality and increasing concentration of market power. Facing Up to Low Productivity Growth also proposes ways that countries can cope with these consequences. $23.95 / £18.99 paper 978-0-88132-731-1 November 2018 175 pages

What is the role of the European Union in dealing with crises that go beyond the borders of the nation-state: terrorism, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, regional conflicts, state failure, organized crime, natural and man-made disasters?

This book assesses the main challenge for the EU: the need to operate in a multidimensional setting with a wide range of actors, such as member states, national and international NGOs, and international organizations, especially NATO and the UN. $49.00 / £38.00 cloth 978-3-8474-2098-9 2018 200 pages

American Capitalism

The Anglo-American Condition and Its Resolution

New Histories

Edited by Sven Beckert and Christine Desan

David Coates

Flawed Capitalism traces the history of the U.S. and UK economies through their New Deal and then Reaganite and Thatcherite periods, showing how the weakening of labor and deregulation of business culminated in the 2008 financial crisis. David Coates makes the case for the transatlantic creation of a new social settlement, based on greater inc0me equality and social justice—a less flawed capitalism. $35.00 / £27.00 cloth 978-1-9111-1633-2 2018 288 pages

Editors Sven Beckert and Christine Desan explore what it means to make American capitalism a subject of historical inquiry. Prominent scholars present cutting-edge research on finance, debt, and credit; women's rights; slavery and political economy; the racialization of capitalism; labor beyond industrial wage workers; and the production of knowledge. A major statement for a wide open field, this book demonstrates the scope of work that the history of capitalism can generate. $38.00 /£30.00 cloth 978-0-231-18524-0

The Two Wests in the Age of Austerity

Learning from Crises for Innovation and Development

Though the “two Wests,” Europe and the United States, differ in crucial respects, they share a common history of social rights. In Democracy and the Welfare State, leading historians and social scientists rethink the history of social democracy and the welfare state in light of global transformations of the economic order and the onslaught of neoliberalism and right-wing populism.

Contributors highlight varying understandings of “crisis” in different national and supranational policy and institutional contexts. They show how some crises have challenged the legitimacy of European Union norms and institutions and even triggered disintegration, while other crises have served as sources of inspiration for European social innovation and political development.

Wendy Pearlman and Boaz Atzili

Mohammad Ayatollahi Tabaar

Israel’s Targeting of States That Host Nonstate Actors

In the post–Cold War era, states increasingly find themselves in conflicts with nonstate actors.

Finding it difficult to fight these opponents directly, many governments instead target states that harbor or aid nonstate actors. Wendy Pearlman and Boaz Atzili investigate this strategy, which they term triadic coercion. They explain why states pursue triadic coercion, evaluate the conditions under which it succeeds, and demonstrate their arguments across seventy years of Israeli history.

The Politics of Islam in Iran

Mohammad Ayatollahi Tabaar traces half a century of shifting Islamist doctrines, demonstrating that religious narratives in Iran can change rapidly, frequently, and dramatically in accordance with elites’ threat perceptions. Religious Statecraft constructs a new picture of Iranian politics in which power drives Islamist ideology. $60.00 /£47.00 cloth 978-0-231-18366-6 2018 392 pages

Leonid Luks

Øystein Tunsjø

Øystein Tunsjø shows that the international system is moving toward a U.S.-China standoff. He arguea that the combined effects of the narrowing power gap between China and the United States and the widening power gap between China and any third-ranking power portend a new bipolarity that will differ in crucial ways from that of the last century.

Leonid Luks considers the causes and consequences of twentieth-century Russian and German revolts against the West’s emerging open societies and their ideological foundations. He explores post-Soviet Russia, Poland's long-term geopolitical difficulties, and the special relationship that all three countries of central and eastern Europe’s "fateful triangle" had with Judaism and the Jews.

Politics Recovered

External Democracy Promotion and Diversity Among International Agencies

Realist Thought in Theory and Practice Edited by Matt Sleat

Evaluating Variances in the Impact of the UNDP and the EC in Rwanda Simone Beetz

Politics Recovered brings together prominent scholars to develop the idea of what it might mean to theorize politics “realistically.” By exploring the nature, distinctiveness, and prospects of realist thought, contributors show how political theory can provide meaningful and compelling answers to the fundamental questions of political life.

This book offers new insight into the diversity of democracy promotion. It takes up the puzzle of different international agencies' mixed results in external democracy promotion despite the global goal of democracy and the attempt to shape a common policy emphasized in various international agreements.

Siddharth Kara demonstrates the scope of modern slavery and its role in global supply chains and offers a concrete path toward its abolition. This searing exposé—including revelatory interviews with both the enslaved and their oppressors—documents one of humanity’s greatest wrongs and lays out the framework to eradicate it.

Marxism, History, and Memory

Frédéric Bozo

Enzo Traverso

Drawing on a vast and diverse archive in theory, testimony, and image and on such thinkers as Karl Marx, Walter Benjamin, Theodor W. Adorno, and others, the intellectual historian Enzo Traverso explores the varying nature of left melancholy as it has manifested in a feeling of guilt for not sufficiently challenging authority, in a fear of surrendering in disarray, and in mourning the human costs of the past. Traverso also shows that hidden within this melancholic tradition is the power to reignite the dialectic of revolutionary thought.

Translated by Susan Emanuel

Based on exclusive French archival sources and numerous interviews with former officials in both France and the United States, A History of the Iraq Crisis retraces the international exchange that culminated in the 2003 Iraq conflict. It shows how and why the Iraq crisis led to a confrontation between two longtime allies, and it exposes the deep and ongoing divisions within Europe, the Atlantic alliance, and the international community as a whole. $55.00 / £43.00 cloth 978-0-231-70444-1

Centrifugal Empire

An Insurrectionist Manifesto

Central–Local Relations in China

Four New Gospels for a Radical Politics

Jae Ho Chung

Ward Blanton, Clayton Crockett, Jeffrey W. Robbins, and Noëlle Vahanian

Foreword by Peter Rollins, Afterword by Catherine Keller CHOICE OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC TITLE

An Insurrectionist Manifesto contains four insurrectionary gospels based on Martin Heidegger's philosophical model of the fourfold: earth and sky, gods and mortals. Challenging religious dogma and dominant philosophical theories, they offer a cooperative, world-affirming political theology that promotes new life through not resurrection but insurrection.

Centrifugal Empire examines the logic, mode, and instrument of local governance established by the People's Republic, and then compares the current system to the practices of its dynastic predecessors. The result is an expansive portrait of Chinese leaders' attitudes toward regional autonomy and local challenges, one concerned with territory-specific preoccupations and manifesting in constant searches for an optimal design of control.
