In Statu Nascendi

Journal of Political Philosophy and International Relations Special Issue: The Work of Haruki Murakami 2022/1
In Statu Nascendi is a peer-reviewed journal that aspires to be a world-class scholarly platform encompassing original academic research dedicated to the circle of Political Philosophy, Cultural Studies, Theory of International Relations, Foreign Policy, and the political Decision-making process. The journal investigates specific issues through a socio-cultural, philosophical, and anthropological approach to raise a new type of civic awareness about the complexity of contemporary crisis, instability, and warfare situations, where the "stage-of-becoming" plays a vital role.

Issue 2022:1 focuses on the novels of Haruki Murakami.

Haruki Murakami: What is the relation between philosophy and an acclaimed Japanese literary writer? Murakami himself has been reluctant to expound on any deeper meaning to be found in his stories. The answer can be found in the great interest in and diverse engagement of readers with Murakami's work.

In a truly global sense, readers have sensed such a depth in Murakami. Whether it is psychoanalytical, sociological, mythological, or political, readers are motivated to extend Murakami's texts: to think about and work with them long after their initial reading.

The objective of this special issue of ISN is to explore this depth to Murakami's work from an interdisciplinary perspective in order to present novel arguments to the growing research community.
