International Relations: Critical Concepts in Political Science, Volume IV Summary
| The leading figures behind the establishment of the academic study of international relations at the end of the First World War argued for a new discipline that would promote world peace. The Second World War and superpower rivalry ensured that this topic remained at the heart of international relations. Today the international community is faced with questions of how to respond to human rights atrocities in civil conflicts, the plight of refugees, the fair distribution of the world's wealth and the management of the global environment. This collection examines the theoretical dimension of international relations. It gathers together important papers from recent years, alongside classic studies from earlier periods. Organised into ten main areas, the themes covered include: · the nature and purpose of international theory · realism and idealism · scientific approaches · approaches to international co-operation · the liberal democratic peace · Marxism · historical sociology · critical theory · political theory and international relations · normative approaches to world order A substantial new index makes this an invaluable research tool. |
