This new book unites in one volume some of the most prominent
critiques of Alexander Wendt's constructivist theory of
international relations and includes the first comprehensive reply
by Wendt. Partly reprints of benchmark articles, partly new
original critiques, the critical chapters are informed by a wide
array of contending theories ranging from realism to
poststructuralism. The collected leading theorists critique Wendt's
seminal book Social Theory of International Politics and his
subsequent revisions. They take issue with the full panoply of
Wendt's approach, such as his alleged positivism, his critique of
the realist school, the conceptualism of identity, and his
teleological theory of history. Wendt's reply is not limited to
rebuttal only. For the first time, he develops his recent idea of
quantum social science, as well as its implications for theorising
international relations. This unique volume will be a necessary
companion to Wendt's book for students and researchers seeking a
better understanding of his work, and also offers one of the most
up-to-date collections on constructivist theorizing.
