Rezensionen

"Traditional theories of world politics have mostly avoided or suppressed discussions of race and racism, focusing instead on concepts such as power, interests, sovereignty, and the nation-state. Unoki argues that without considerations of race, the field is incomplete. Race and racism have always lurked in the shadows of diplomacy and war."---G. John Ikenberry in Foreign Affairs March/April 2023 https://www.foreignaffairs.com/reviews/racism-diplomacy-and-international-relations

"Unoki has made an important contribution to an important and timely priority in international affairs. How the field of international affairs examines the role racism has played in the development of the field, the cannon, who teaches what to whom, and the institutional structures of international affairs, is front of mind not least in schools of international affairs commit to becoming anti-racist centers of learning and research."---Rachel Kyte, Dean of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University

"Ko Unoki is a brilliant and accomplished scholar of international politics. His previous book on the period leading up to World War II in the Pacific provides a compelling and fresh analysis of US-Japanese relations and the international political structure prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. His book, Racism, Diplomacy, and International Relations, is a must-read as we enter an international era that will rise or fall in part on its ability to deal with racism. Unoki traces the role of racism in international politics from the time of Woodrow Wilson and the Treaty of Versailles and makes a convincing case for its continuing challenge to peace and stability today and into the future."--- Deborah Winslow Nutter, PhD, Former Senior Associate Dean and Professor of Practice and Founding Director, Global Master of Arts Program at The Fletcher School Of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University
