An interdisciplinary collection of essays designed to map out a wide-ranging and productive future for postcolonial studies, this volume assesses the current state of the field and points toward its most promising new developments. In addressing questions about the definition and relevance of postcolonial scholarship, many of the essays consider its relation to the study of globalization. While some contributors offer broad reflections on the existing two-way influence between postcolonial theory and established university disciplines such as literary criticism and history, others forge ahead into some vital, if nascent, areas for postcolonial research such as media studies, environmental studies, religious studies, and linguistic and semantic analysis.The contributors represent many of the fields altered by postcolonial studies over the past two decades, including literary studies, history, anthropology, Asian and African studies, and political science. They model diverse applications of postcolonial theory to Latin America, East Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. Postcolonial Studies and Beyond propels the field forward. It showcases scholars coming from intellectual precincts usually considered outside the purview of the postcolonial finding new ways to deploy classic techniques of postcolonial analysis, and scholars strongly associated with postcolonial studies offering substantial critiques designed to challenge the field's most fundamental assumptions.

Sovereign Justice collects valuable contributions from scholars of both continental and analytic tradition, and aims to investigate into the relationship between global justice and the nation state. It deals therefore especially with the moral relevance of national boundaries and cosmopolitanism.It is organised in four sections.The first section deals with cosmopolitan approaches to global justice, with regard to which Kok-Choir Tan's article presents an overview over the current state of the art, the challenges that cosmopolitanism is currently facing, and its relationship and contrasts with other theoretical strands. Etinson's article attempts to clarify the concept of cosmopolitanism. De Angelis's contribution aims to assess the current argumentative state of the art.The second section discusses more specific normative issues. The contributions included in this section deal with global egalitarianism, the moral relevance of national boundaries, global moral and political obligation, and the relationship of national sovereignty and global justice.The third section deals with the contribution of Rawls's work to the current debate on global justice. It also contains an article that deals with the Kantian "aesthetic judgement" - a topic already developed and made famous by Hannah Arendt - and its relevance in the context of international political theory - recently pointed out by Alessandro Ferrara's increasingly influential work.Finally, section four deals with economic justice and discusses principles of economic equality in times of globalisation and Pogge's idea of a global resources dividend.The book presents both a useful assessment of the state of the art and valuable contributions to its advancement.The articles will be of great use both for scholars and for students.

Toute la théorie standard du central banking s'est construite sur le modèle de l'indépendance de l'institut d'émission vis-à-vis de l'État. Pourtant toute l'histoire des banques centrales ramène à l'État, ou plutôt à l'État-nation. Pour comprendre les raisons d'un tel paradoxe, cet ouvrage analyse l'évolution des rapports à l'État d'une quinzaine de banques centrales, représentatives de la diversité de ces institutions à travers le monde : vieilles banques d'émission dont la genèse remonte à l'ancien régime, banques nationales créées avec la vague nationaliste de la fin du XIXe siècle, banques centrales d'émission nées de la disparition des empires après la première guerre mondiale, instituts d'émission nationalisés constitués après la seconde guerre mondiale ou avec la décolonisation,banques centrales nationales, enfin, (re)fondées avec la fin de la guerre froide et la marche vers l'unification monétaire de l'Europe. Deux traits communs ressortent de ces histoires croisées : l'ambivalence fondamentale des banques centrales situées à la zone frontière entre l'État-nation et le marché global, et leurs fonctions de stabilisation monétaire et financière qui en font des acteurs clés de régulation de la mondialisation. -- Quatrième de couverture
