Recenzje

Vicarious Identity in International Relations contends not only that a phenomenon common in everyday life is also prevalent in relations between states, but that it does some surprisingly significant work in global politics. Developing a sophisticated new approach for the study of vicarious identity at the state and international levels, Browning, Joenniemi, and Steele offer an erudite and accessible analysis of how 'living through others' matters in international relations. This fascinating study will no doubt ignite a fruitful and welcome new research agenda in IR.
