International Governance, Regimes, and Globalization: An East Asian Perspective

This book provides a comprehensive overview of international regimes, a term foreign and quite difficult to grasp for many students of international/global governance and globalization. By investigating the contradictory and overlapping relationships of these terms, the book provides an in-depth reference for academics interested in this rapidly evolving area of study. Dr. Yu's dialectic model is used to, inter alia, dissolve the contradictions exposed in definitions introduced in the first part of the book. The second part of the book illustrates how Yu's theoretical model can be applied to contradictions inherent in idea of having partial loves. In particular, Yu calls attention to the situation where individuals have affection for both the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan and the People's Republic of China (PRC) on mainland China. Few academics in the East are analyzing international/global governance. This book is a superb introduction to those who want to learn about these terms from an eastern perspective.
