Of Selves and Others
Författare
Summary, in English
This chapter revisits Iver Neumann’s seminal book The Uses of the Other (1999) in order to unpack its assumptions about collective identity formation in world politics. After having situated this work in its contemporary context and pointed to its significance, the chapter tries to demonstrate the extent to which its basic assumptions about collective identity formation replicates those that went into the very making of such collective identities in the modern international system. The chapter uses this unpacking as a foil to historicize these assumptions and to sketch a brief account of how a modern world divided into selves and others came into being and hence became possible to conceptualize in such self-referential terms.
