This book responds to a gap in the literature in International
Relations (IR) by integrating technology more systematically into
analyses of global politics. Technology facilitates, accelerates,
automates, and exercises capabilities that are greater than human
abilities. And yet, within IR, the role of technology often remains
under-studied. Building on insights from science and technology
studies (STS), assemblage theory and new materialism, this volume
asks how international politics are made possible, knowable, and
durable by and through technology. The contributors provide
empirically rich and pertinent accounts of a variety of
technologies relevant to the discipline, including drones,
algorithms, satellite imagery, border management databases, and
blockchains. Problematizing various technologically mediated
issues, such as secrecy, violence, and questions of how authority
and evidence become constituted in international contexts, this
book will be of interest to scholars in IR, in particular those who
work in the subfields of (critical) security studies, International
Political Economy, and Global Governance.
