Abstract
The number of academic papers criticizing the discipline of international relations (IR) for neglecting states and societies outside the core Western countries in the establishment, consolidation, and maintenance of international systems is steadily increasing.1 However, these texts focus considerably more on the marginalization of the non-Western world than on identifying its positive agency. Constructing Global Order: Agency and Change in World Politics2 differs from these texts in that it focuses on the role of non-Western states, particularly postcolonial ones, in legitimizing and transforming the US-led Western international system into a genuinely global order. In this context, Amitav Acharya’s book considers the pluralization of agency in the global order to be important for fostering and managing such transition and change.
