In this bold intervention, Cudworth and Hobden draw on recent
advances in thinking about complexity theory to call for a profound
re-envisioning of the study of international relations. As a
discipline, IR is wedded to the enlightenment project of overcoming
the "hazards" of nature, and thus remains constrained by its
blinkered "human-centered" approach. Furthermore, as a means of
predicting major global-political events and trends, it has failed
consistently. Instead, the authors argue, it is essential we
develop a much more nuanced and sophisticated analysis of global
political systems, taking into account broader environmental
circumstances, as well as social relations, economic practices and
formations of political power. Essentially, the book reveals how
the study of international politics is transformed by the
understanding that we have never been exclusively human. An
original work that is sure to provoke heated debate within the
discipline, "Posthuman International Relations" combines insights
from complexity theory and ecological thinking to provide a radical
new agenda for a progressive, twenty-first century, International
Relations.
