{"product_id":"postpositivist-international-relations-theory","title":"Postpositivist International Relations Theory","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book discusses postpositivist theories foregrounding postpositivism against the reigning realist and positivist–pluralist orthodoxies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book explicates seven theories, not as disparate endeavours but as developments linked by a common thread that seeks to enunciate globalist emancipatory goals for the theoretical field and the world that these theories seek to change. It focuses on the following themes: feminism, environmentalism or green theory, the English School, critical theory, constructivism, postmodernism, and postcolonialism. Additionally, a separate chapter on globalization shows that while mainstream (neo)realist international relations theories respond hostilely to globalization and liberal-pluralist theories react benignly to it, postpositivist theories positively welcome it. The book offers a competent meta-theoretical gridwork, showing on which side of the opposing disciplinary positions in the fourth debate each of the seven theories are located. It is a comprehensive guide to the postpositivist restructuring of the discipline of international relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to researchers and students of political science, international relations, history, humanities, and literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54236881256792,"sku":"9781032510620","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781032510620.jpg?v=1779172252","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/postpositivist-international-relations-theory","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
