Abstract
Sound matters for international political sociology. Drawing upon literature from cultural geography and sound studies, we argue that sound contributes to political dynamics that are constitutive of world politics. To capture these dynamics, we offer a set of conceptual frameworks to analyze sound. First, we differentiate the concept of sound from noise and show the importance of doing so. Second, we introduce “sonic formations” as a means of capturing how sound contributes to world politics. Third, we make the case for analyzing sound's historicity, adaptability, relationality, and performativity (SHARP) in any given context. Fourth, using sonic formations and the SHARP framework, we examine an illustrative case study: the nuclear deterrence and non-proliferation regimes. By focusing on the role of sound in these regimes, our preliminary findings demonstrate the utility for the field of undertaking additional work to capture the wider significance of sound. This includes its contributions to shaping relations of power.

声音问题:声波形成如何影响核威慑和防扩散制度

摘要
声音对国际政治社会学至关重要。借鉴文化地理学和声音研究的文献,我们认为声音有助于构成世界政治的政治动力。为了捕捉这些动态,我们提供了一组概念框架来分析声音。首先,我们将声音和噪音的概念区分开,并说明这样做的重要性。其次,我们引入“音速形态”作为捕捉声音如何为世界政治做出贡献的一种手段。第三,我们提供了在任何给定上下文中分析声音的历史性,适应性,关系性和性能(SHARP)的理由。第四,使用声波构造和SHARP框架,我们研究了一个示例性案例研究:核威慑和不扩散制度。通过专注于声音在这些制度中的作用,我们的初步发现表明,该工具可用于进行其他工作以捕获声音的更广泛意义。这包括它对塑造权力关系的贡献。
