International Relations Scholarship Around the World (Hardcover): Arlene B. Tickner, Ole Waever International Relations Scholarship Around the World (Hardcover)
Arlene B. Tickner, Ole Waever
R4,649 Discovery Miles 46 490 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

It has become widely accepted that the discipline of International Relations (IR) is ironically not "international" at all. IR scholars are part of a global discipline with a single, shared object of study - the world, and yet theorizing gravitates around a number of concepts that have been conceived solely in the United States. The purpose of this book is to re-balance this "western bias" by examining the ways in which IR has evolved and is practiced around the world. The fifteen case studies offer fresh insights into the political and socioeconomic environments that characterize diverse geocultural sites and the ways in which these traits inform and condition scholarly activity in International Relations. By bringing together scholars living and working across the globe Tickner and Waever provide the most comprehensive analysis of IR ever published. It is essential reading for anyone who is concerned about the history, development and future of international relations.

South-South Cooperation Beyond the Myths - Rising Donors, New Aid Practices? (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017): Isaline Bergamaschi,... South-South Cooperation Beyond the Myths - Rising Donors, New Aid Practices? (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017)
Isaline Bergamaschi, Phoebe Moore, Arlene B. Tickner
R3,664 Discovery Miles 36 640 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book, which brings together scholars from the developed and developing world, explores one of the most salient features of contemporary international relations: South-South cooperation. It builds on existing empirical evidence and offers a comparative analytical framework to critically analyse the aid policies and programmes of ten rising donors from the global South. Amongst these are several BRICS (Brazil, India, China and South Africa) but also a number of less studied countries, including Cuba, Venezuela, the United Arab Emirates, Colombia, Turkey, and Korea. The chapters trace the ideas, identities and actors that shape contemporary South-South cooperation, and also explore potential differences and points of convergence with traditional North-South aid. This thought-provoking edited collection will appeal to students and scholars of international relations, international political economy, development, economics, area studies and business.

Claiming the International (Hardcover, New): Arlene B. Tickner, David L Blaney Claiming the International (Hardcover, New)
Arlene B. Tickner, David L Blaney
R4,483 Discovery Miles 44 830 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book explores the possibilities of alternative worldings beyond those authorized by the disciplinary norms and customs of International Relations. In response to the boundary-drawing practices of IR that privilege the historical experience and scholarly folkways of the "West," the contributors examine the limits of even critical practice within the discipline; investigate alternative archives from India, the Caribbean, the steppes of Eurasia, the Andes, China, Japan and Southeast Asia that offer different understandings of proper rule, the relationality of identities and polities, notions of freedom and imaginations of layers of sovereignty; and demonstrate distinct modes of writing and inquiry. In doing so, the book also speaks about different possibilities for IR and for inquiry without it.

International Relations from the Global South - Worlds of Difference (Hardcover): Arlene B. Tickner, Karen Smith International Relations from the Global South - Worlds of Difference (Hardcover)
Arlene B. Tickner, Karen Smith
R4,499 Discovery Miles 44 990 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This exciting new textbook challenges the implicit notions inherent in most existing International Relations (IR) scholarship and instead presents the subject as seen from different vantage points in the global South. Divided into four sections, (1) the IR discipline, (2) key concepts and categories, (3) global issues and (4) IR futures, it examines the ways in which world politics have been addressed by traditional core approaches and explores the limitations of these treatments for understanding both Southern and Northern experiences of the "international." The book encourages readers to consider how key ideas have been developed in the discipline, and through systematic interventions by contributors from around the globe, aims at both transforming and enriching the dominant terms of scholarly debate. This empowering, critical and reflexive tool for thinking about the diversity of experiences of international relations and for placing them front and center in the classroom will help professors and students in both the global North and the global South envision the world differently. In addition to general, introductory IR courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels it will appeal to courses on sociology and historiography of knowledge, globalization, neoliberalism, security, the state, imperialism and international political economy.
