Laying the foundations of a theory of 'international social
closure' this book examines how actors compete for a seat at the
table in the management of international society and how that
competition stratifies the international domain. In a broad
historical survey from the 'Family of Civilised Nations', through
the Great Powers' club, to the G7 and G20 today, Naylor
investigates the politics of membership in the exclusive clubs that
manage international society and ensure its survival, providing us
with a new way to think about how status competition has changed
over time and what this means for international politics today.
With its sociologically grounded theory, this book advances English
School scholarship and transforms the study of contemporary
summitry, providing a ground-breaking approach rooted in archival
research, elite interviews, and ethnographic participant
observation. This book is of interest to international relations
scholars interested in the 'expansion' and globalisation of
international society, the history of international summits, and
transformations in international order, as well as to those
examining concepts including stratification, hierarchy, and
networked governance. With its emphasis on non-state actors in
global governance, scholars and practitioners alike working on/for
civil society will also find this research of great value.
