Opis

A deep exploration of the emergence and development of modern international relations (IR) thinking in both the West and the Global South, relating the story of the field systematically to the world politics of the last two centuries. For students and scholars of international relations, particularly IR theory, the history of the discipline, and non-Western approaches.

Recenzje

'Acharya and Buzan issue a clarion call for a truly self-reflective and reflexive discipline, based on a rare, balanced account of international relations. An important and urgent read for all IR scholars who wish to study and explain the real world, at a time when international society is becoming at once more global and less easily generalisable.' Evelyn Goh, Shedden Professor of Strategic Policy Studies, Australian National University
