An increasing number of scholars have begun to see science and
technology as relevant issues in International Relations (IR),
acknowledging the impact of material elements, technical
instruments, and scientific practices on international security,
statehood, and global governance. This two-volume collection brings
the debate about science and technology to the center of
International Relations. It shows how integrating science and
technology translates into novel analytical frameworks, conceptual
approaches and empirical puzzles, and thereby offers a
state-of-the-art review of various methodological and theoretical
ways in which sciences and technologies matter for the study of
international affairs and world politics. The authors not only
offer a set of practical examples of research frameworks for
experts and students alike, but also propose a conceptual space for
interdisciplinary learning in order to improve our understanding of
the global politics of science and technology. The second volume
raises a plethora of issue areas, actors, and cases under the
umbrella notion techno-politics. Distinguishing between
interactional and co-productive perspectives, it outlines a toolbox
of analytical frameworks that transcend technological determinism
and social constructivism.
