"Notes:Political culture refers to the basic values, ideas, beliefs and political orientations by which countries, societies, and whole regions are guided. The underlying belief systems that shape cultures and societies and cause them to behave in certain, often distinct ways. The puzzle or query that chiefly concerns this author is why the United States (US) and its foreign policy have such a hard time understanding cultures and societies other than their own. This provocative book argues that the US needs to end its attitudes of superiority and condescension toward other nations and cultures and redirect its foreign policy accordingly. After an introduction that sets forth the main theoretical and conceptual arguments, the next chapters explore all the main areas of the world. The Conclusion pulls all these themes together, analyzes the common patterns that emerge, and suggests new directions for U.S foreign policy"

"Legalist Empire explores the intimate connections between international law and empire in the United States from 1898 to 1919. Though many histories treat Woodrow Wilsons plans for the League of Nations as the beginning of Americas substantive engagement with international law, this book demonstrates the broad influence of legal concepts and expertise in the years before World War I. It follows such lawyers as Elihu Root, John Bassett Moore, James Brown Scott, and Robert Lansing as they created an American profession of international law, promoted the creation of international courts, represented corporations with business overseas, and served as high-ranking policymakers in Washington. A widespread belief in the inevitable progress of civilization simultaneously justified American empire and underwrote the claim that international adjudication could bring world peace. Legalist Empire shows how international lawyers justified the conquest of the Philippines, the taking of Panama, and interventions throughout the Caribbean, and also explains why the law of neutrality helped lead the United States into World War I. The book also offers a new history of the origins of the American international law profession. Research in the papers and publications of lawyers and their organizations shows how political, ideological, and cultural assumptions shaped the emerging profession. A conclusion tracing developments to the present further emphasizes that rather than being antagonists, empire and the international rule of law have frequently reinforced each other in American history."

"Investasi asing langsung merupakan bahasan yang prominen dalam ilmu Hubungan Internasional (HI), terutama melalui cabang studi ekonomi politik internasional. Meskipun begitu, ulasan terhadap investasi asing langsung masih cukup dominan dibahas melalui sudut pandang ilmu Ekonomi. Tinjauan pustaka ini oleh karena itu berupaya untuk memberikan pemahaman terhadap investasi asing langsung dalam ilmu HI dengan merujuk pada 32 literatur yang terakreditasi. Metode pengorganisasian yang digunakan dalam tinjauan pustaka ini adalah taksonomi, yaitu pembagian literatur ke dalam beberapa tema umum, yakni (1) determinan investasi asing langsung, (2) dimensi limpahan, (3) dampak dari investasi asing langsung, serta (4) investasi asing langsung dan perjanjian internasional. Setelah melakukan pengorganisasian literatur, tulisan ini juga berusaha untuk mengidentifikasi konsensus dan perdebatan serta tren dan kesenjangan penelitian sebagai refleksi, baru kemudian diikuti dengan sintesis. Hasilnya, bahasan investasi asing langsung dalam ilmu HI variatif secara dinamika argumen tetapi seragam dari aspek teknis. Tulisan ini menemukan bahwa beberapa tawaran argumen dari literatur terdahulu masih perlu diuji validitasnya.

Foreign direct investment is a prominent subject in International Relations (IR), especially in international political economy. However, study on foreign direct investment is still predominantly done by economists through an economic perspective. This literature review therefore attempts to provide an understanding of foreign direct investment in IR by referring to 32 accredited literatures. The organizing method used in this literature review is taxonomy, which divides literature into several themes. The themes are (1) the determinants of foreign direct investment, (2) spillover effects, (3) foreign direct investment output, as well as (4) foreign direct investment direct and international regime. Furthermore, this paper also attempts to identify consensus and debate as well as research trends and gaps as part of author’s analysis followed by syntheses. As a result, the discussion on foreign direct investment in IR varies in arguments but is uniform in technical aspects. This paper also finds that some of the arguments offered by previous literature need to be tested for validity."
