Since the field of International Relations was established
almost a century ago, many different theoretical approaches have
been developed, each offering distinctive accounts of the world,
why it has come to be the way it is, and how it might be made a
better place.
In this illuminating textbook, leading IR scholar, Stephanie
Lawson, examines each of these theories in turn, from political
realism in its various forms to liberalism, Marxism, critical
theory and more recent contributions from social theory, feminism,
postcolonialism and green theory. Taking as her focus the major
practical issues facing scholars of international relations today,
Lawson ably shows how each theory relates to situations ?on the
ground?. Each chapter features case studies, questions for
discussion to encourage reflection and classroom debate, guides to
further reading and web resources.
The study of IR is a profoundly normative enterprise, and each
theoretical school has its strengths and weaknesses. Theories of
International Relations encourages a critical, reflective approach
to the study of IR theory, while emphasising the many important and
interesting things it has to teach us about the complexities and
challenges of international politics today.
