Critical international theory encompasses several distinct, radical
approaches that focus on identity, difference, hegemonic power, and
order. As an applied theory, critical international theory draws on
critical social theories to shed light on international processes
and global transformations. While this approach has led to
increasing interest in formulating an empirically relevant critical
international theory, it has also revealed the difficulties of
applying critical theory to international politics. What are these
difficulties and problems? And how can we move beyond them? This
book addresses these questions by investigating the intellectual
currents and key debates of critical theory, from Kant and Hegel to
Habermas and Derrida, and the recent work of critical international
theory, including Robert Cox and Andrew Linklater. By drawing on
these debates, the book formulates an original theory of
complementarity that brings together critical theory and critical
international theory. It argues that complementarity-a governing
principle in international law and politics-offers a conceptual
framework for working toward two goals: engaging the changing
contexts and forms of resistance and redressing some of the
difficulties of applying critical theory to international
relations. In adopting three critical perspectives on
complementarity to analyze the evolving social and political
contexts of global justice, this book provides an essential
resource for undergraduate and graduate students and scholars
interested in the application of critical theory to international
relations.
