Building on constructivist approaches to international relations
this book develops a narrative theory of identity, action and
foreign policy, which is then applied to account for the evolution
of Finnish foreign policy. The book adopts an innovative approach
by showing how foreign policy orientations need to be seen as
grounded in overlapping and competing sets of identity narratives
that reappear in different forms through history. By emphasising
the dynamism implicit within identity narratives the book not only
challenges traditional rationalist materialist approaches to
foreign policy analysis, but also the current tendency to depict
the story of Finnish foreign policy, identity and history as one of
a gradual move towards a Western location. Rather the book
emphasises elements of multiplicity and contingency, whilst
re-establishing foreign policy as a highly political process
concerned with power and the right to define reality and national
subjectivity.
