Based on extensive archival research, this book provides a new and
stimulating history of International Relations (IR) as an academic
discipline. Contrary to traditional accounts, it argues that IR was
not invented by Anglo-American men after the First World War. Nor
was it divided into neat theoretical camps. To appreciate the
twists and turns of early IR scholarship, the book follows a
diverse group of men and women from across Europe and beyond who
pioneered the field since 1914. Like architects, they built a set
of institutions (university departments, journals, libraries, etc.)
but they also designed plans for a new world order (draft treaties,
petitions, political commentary, etc.). To achieve these goals,
they interacted closely with the League of Nations and its bodies
for intellectual cooperation, until the Second World War put an end
to their endeavour. Their story raises broader questions about the
status of IR well beyond the inter-war period.
