Features: The study of "thought trends" in the humanities and social sciences is a major focus of academic research. Specifically, in the discipline of international relations, there has been a substantial amount of research and literature on "theories" of contemporary Western international relations (including "theory" of international politics), but there has yet to be a comprehensive grasp of mainstream "thought trends" in the international field, let alone in-depth research. This book will explore from the perspectives of philosophy and culture, closely contemporary international relations realities and the intellectual and cultural trends of contemporary society, closely following the development trends of international relations theory, and systematically introduces, elaborates on, and analyzes several of the most extensive and popular international thought trends in the world today. Combining the realities of contemporary international relations and closely following the development trends of international relations (international politics) theory, this book systematically introduces, elaborates on, and analyzes the four major international thought trends of our time—globalization nationalism, post-colonialism, feminism, and green peace. Methodologically speaking, this book focuses on introducing and elaborating on these international thought trends within the context of postmodernism, analyzing them more from the perspective of postmodernism. Value-wise, this book aims to inspire people to reflect on international culture, world culture (global culture).
