Universally Foreign is a collection of writings from my experiences. Growing up with parents that experienced the civil rights movement and understanding the phrase,"it takes an entire village to raise a child", I have to step back and see that our society has changed quite a bit. I grew up in the south with all of the prejudices that it has along with the beauty of community. I've tried to capture the innocence of that and the moral transformation along with the truly indecent proposals and my struggles. I hope no one is offended by my expressions but are able to see life through another set of eyes.

""Crimes against humanity" has become integral to contemporary political and legal discourse. The conceptual core of the term - an act offending against all of mankind -, however, runs deep in the history in international political thought. In an original excavation of this history, The Politics of Universal Crime examines theoretical mobilizations of the idea of "universal crime" in colonial and post-colonial contexts. The book demonstrates the overlooked centrality of humanity and criminality to political liberalism's historical engagement with world politics, thereby breaking with the exhaustively studied status of individual rights in liberal thought. It is argued that invocations of universal crime project humanity as a normatively integrated, yet minimally inclusive and hierarchically structured subject. Such visions of humanity have in turn underwritten justifications of foreign rule and outsider intervention based on claims to an injury universally suffered by all mankind. The study foregrounds the "political productivity" of universal crime that entails distinct figures, relationships and forms of authority and agency. The book traces this argument through European political theorists' deployments of universal crime in assessing the legitimacy of colonial rule and foreign intervention in non-European societies. Analyzing John Locke's notion of universal crime in the context of English colonialism, the concept's retooled circulation during the nineteenth century and contemporary cosmopolitanism's reliance on 'crimes against humanity', it identifies an 'inclusionary Eurocentrism' that subtends the authorizing and coercive dimensions of universal crime. Unlike much-studied 'exclusionary Eurocentrist' thinking, 'inclusionary Eurocentrist' arguments have historically extended an unequal, repressive 'recognition via liability' to non-European peoples"--

This dissertation theorizes the political productivity of notions of universal crime as they circulated and continue to circulate in European political debates on the legitimacy of European coercive interference in non-European spaces. By the notion of universal crime, I mean the idea that certain locally committed acts violate universally valid norms and thereby not only injure their immediate victims, but also deeply offend humanity at large. In this thesis, I analyze how notions of universal crime give rise to modes of normative inclusion, political authority, and the legitimacy of foreign intervention in the history of European political thought. This analysis yields one theoretical and one historical argument. Theoretically, I argue that the notion of universal crime provides a kind of normative inclusion to the offender that is universal in scope and minimal in degree. Since the notion of criminality is internal to a preexisting normative order, the criminal against humanity is positioned within the global normative order. I suggest therefore that the 'criminal against humanity' is a figure distinct from the 'enemy of humanity' and that criminality offers an alternative principle to enmity in international politics. The historical argument accounts for the rise and fall of notions of universal crime in political discourses over time. I contend that notions of universal crime circulate in theoretical texts when ambiguities about sovereignty as a globally valid ordering principle promote a reliance on universal values to assess questions of legitimacy in global politics. Universal norms, such as humanitarian ethics, provide normative guidance in times in which the lack of clear conceptions of state sovereignty reduces its efficacy as a global ordering principle. I develop these arguments in three case studies in the history of European political thought in global context. These cases span John Locke's discussion of European colonialism in America, nineteenth century justifications of European imperialism, and Jürgen Habermas's cosmopolitan interpretations of military interventions in non-European polities during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

The samurai radicals who overthrew the last shogun in 1868 promised to restore ancient and pure Japanese ways. Foreign observers were terrified that Japan would lapse into violent xenophobia. But the new Meiji government took an opposite course. It copied best practices from around the world, building a powerful and modern Japanese nation with the help of European and American advisors. While revering the Japanese past, the Meiji government boldly embraced the foreign and the new. What explains this paradox? How could Japan's 1868 revolution be both modern and traditional, both xenophobic and cosmopolitan? To Stand with the Nations of the World explains the paradox of the Restoration through the forces of globalization. The Meiji Restoration was part of the global "long nineteenth century" during which ambitious nation states like Japan, Britain, Germany, and the United States challenged the world's great multi-ethnic empires--Ottoman, Qing, Romanov, and Hapsburg. Japan's leaders wanted to celebrate Japanese uniqueness, but they also sought international recognition. Rather than simply mimic world powers like Britain, they sought to make Japan distinctly Japanese in the same way that Britain was distinctly British. Rather than sing "God Save the King," they created a Japanese national anthem with lyrics from ancient poetry, but Western-style music. The Restoration also resonated with Japan's ancient past. In the 600s and 700s, Japan was threatened by the Tang dynasty, a dynasty as powerful as the Roman empire. In order to resist the Tang, Japanese leaders borrowed Tang methods, building a centralized Japanese state on Tang models, and learning continental science and technology. As in the 1800s, Japan co-opted international norms while insisting on Japanese distinctiveness. When confronting globalization in 1800s, Japan looked back to that "ancient globalization" of the 600s and 700s. The ancient past was therefore not remote or distant, but immediate and vital.
