Book excerpt: 'Eros of International Relations' is a distinctive work that explores the much-neglected Chinese perspective in broader international relations theory. Using the concept of 'self-feminizing' - adoption of a feminine identity to oblige and achieve mutual caring as a relational strategy - this book argues that postcolonial actors have employed gendered identities in order to survive the squeezing pressure of globalisation and nationalism in their own ways.
