• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Despite occupying a central role and frequently being used in the study of international politics, the concept of the "event" remains in many ways unchallenged and unexplored. By combining the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and his concept of the event with the example of "9/11" this book problematises the role and meaning of "events" in international politics.
