描述
Despite occupying a central role and frequently being used in the study of international politics, the concept of the "event" remains in many ways unchallenged and unexplored. By combining the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and his concept of the event with the example of 9/11 as an historical event, this book problematises the role and meaning of "events" in international politics.
Lundborg seeks to demonstrate how the historical event can be analysed as a practice of inscribing temporal borders and distinctions. Specifically he shows how this practice relies upon an ongoing process of capturing various movements – of thought, sense, experience and becoming. However the book also demonstrates how these same movements express a life and reality that elude complete capture, highlighting the potential for alternative encounters with the event, encounters that constantly threaten to undermine the limits and imaginary completeness of the historical event.
This book offers an exciting new way of thinking about the politics of encountering events, arguing that at the heart of such encounters there are always elements of uncertainty and contingency that cannot be fully resolved or fixed. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of international relations, cultural studies and history.

Review
For some time international studies discipilnes have needed a perspicuous account and application of thinking in time - thinking the "event" a la Deleuze - as an antidote to simplistic geopolitical frames for analyzing global conflicts. Tom Lundborg's Politics of the Event fulfills that need admirably.
Michael J. Shapiro, University of Hawai'i
Tom Lundborg shows us how to think with and about Deleuze’s philosophy of the event. He also offers a series of profound, disturbing and sometimes moving meditations on the ‘event’ of September 11, 2001. Drawing on Deleuze’s, distinction between historical and ‘pure’ events, as well as associated concepts such as actualization, becoming and folding, this book is a challenge as well as a guide to thinking differently about events. It will be valuable to anyone with an interest in the nature of the events that punctuate our political and social life, but especially to those in the fields of politics and international relations, philosophy and social theory.
Paul Patton, Professor of Philosophy, University of New South Wales

备用描述
Lundborg (Swedish Institute of International Affairs) applies Gilles Deleuze's concept of the event to 9/11 to demonstrate both the utility of the concept and the 9/11 qua historical event was generated by abstract political forces. He distinguishes the pure event from the historical event, in that the latter takes place and has all kinds of specificity such that it "takes place," while the former eludes determinations and is instead a kind of becoming. Lundborg considers the processes of actualization and counter-actualization of bodies, the visible and movements; the production of 9/11 in all kinds of institutional and policy structures erected in its wake; the politics of what Deleuze calls folding; and the possibility of alternate encounters with the event. The book is well written, and while of the most interest to students of philosophy and political theory, the way that Lundborg incorporates television and otherwise news content shows some relevance to students of media-studies and journalism too.
