Contemporary International Relations is as much a conversation
between the living and the dead as it is among the living. Its
debates are thoroughly rooted in and shaped by the thought of many
bygone minds, both ancient and modern. With this in mind, The
Return of the Theorists presents forty imagined dialogues with
foundational theorists. They run the gamut from Homer and Confucius
to Hedley Bull and Jean Bethke Elshtain, and span almost three
millennia of human history, comprising representatives of a variety
of cultures. The interviewers consist of more than forty
international relations scholars and political theorists. They too
cut across cultures, continents and almost three generations, and
each is an expert on the work of the thinker invited. The Return of
the Theorists will be of interest to anyone who has tried to enter
the mind of bygone thinkers in political thought and International
Relations.

How profitable is it for world order to transfer the legal and
political principles, which sustain order within states to the
domain of relations between states? This has been one of the
central and most contentious questions in the study of
international relations. The term 'domestic analogy' refers to the
idea that inter-state relations are amenable to the same type of
institutional control as the relations of individuals and groups
within states. In this study Dr Suganami discusses the role the
domestic analogy has played in proposals about world order, peace,
justice and welfare in the period since 1814. As well as analysing
the ideas of major writers on international law and relations,
Hidemi Suganami examines the creation of the League of Nations, the
United Nations and its agencies, and the European Community - all
of which have sprung from the domestic analogy. The Domestic
Analogy and World Order Proposals makes an important contribution
to the history of ideas about world order, exploring how this
particular mode of reasoning about international relations has
evolved against changing historical backgrounds.
What is the English School of International Relations and why is
there increasing interest in it? Linklater and Suganami provide a
comprehensive account of this distinctive approach to the study of
world politics which highlights coexistence and cooperation, as
well as conflict, in the relations between sovereign states. In the
first book-length volume of its kind, the authors present a
comprehensive discussion of the rise and development of the English
School, its principal research agenda, and its epistemological and
methodological foundations. The authors further consider the
English School's position on progress in world politics, its
relationship with Kantian thought, its conception of a sociology of
states-systems and its approach to good international citizenship
as a means of reducing harm in world politics. Lucidly written and
unprecedented in its coverage, this book is essential reading for
anyone interested in international relations and politics
worldwide.

In this highly original and important book, Hidemi Suganami analyses one of the fundamental questions of international relations: what causes war? A path-breaking study in which the author draws on historical, statistical and philosophical perspectives to produce an innovative new theory.
