The book explores a borderless ecology of cultures, emphasizing interconnectedness at the consciousness level, contrasting with Western-centric IR theories. It critiques (neo-)Kantian philosophies that define human identities within divided worlds, instead advocating for de-Kantian philosophies like Tianxia and Advaita. These concepts promote a fluid understanding of human existence that bridges Western and non-Western perspectives. The author aims to establish guiding principles for a new world order that transcends geo-centric limitations, fostering innovative theory-building and policy-making within the Global IR framework.
