The Kyoto School, a group of Japanese philosophers, sought to challenge the Western dominance over the rest of the world, raising important issues for contemporary non-Western and Global IR literature. This essay delves into the complexities of the Kyoto School's philosophy, exploring its challenge to Western hegemony and its impact on non-Western and Global IR scholarship.

Individual Kyoto School philosophers, such as Nishida Kitaro, Tanbae Hajime, Miki Kisyoshi, and Tosaka Jun, are examined in depth, shedding light on their unique contributions to the school's philosophy.

Building upon the concepts of time and language central to Kyoto School philosophy, this essay develops a novel theory that seeks to explain the dynamics of power and resistance in the global arena. The theory emphasizes the importance of recognizing the temporal and linguistic dimensions of power relations and explores how they shape the interactions between different societies and regions.

By examining the Kyoto School's challenge to Western dominance and its implications for non-Western and Global IR literature, this essay offers a fresh perspective on the study of international relations. It highlights the need for a more nuanced and interdisciplinary approach to understanding the complex dynamics of power and resistance in the global context and emphasizes the importance of recognizing the diverse voices and perspectives of non-Western and Global IR scholarship.
