Prof. P\u0131nar Bilgin, of the Departments of International Relations and Political Science and Public Administration, has released a new book coauthored with Karen Smith from the University of Leiden. \u201cThinking Globally About World Politics: Beyond Global IR,\u201d was published by Palgrave Macmillan.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The book asks what it means to think globally about world politics. In an attempt to contextualize the recent globalizing \u201cturn\u201d in International Relations, the book takes stock of 30 plus years of efforts to address IR\u2019s Eurocentric limitations and explores what \u201cthinking globally\u201d means in practice through focusing on the study of (international) security and foreign policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The authors offer global thinking about world politics not as an alternative to but as a critical engagement with IR. It involves curiosity about what others think about the world, making sustained efforts to locate the knowledge they have produced and recognizing past and present contributions to what we otherwise view as \u201cEuropean\u201d ideas, practices and institutions. Rather than focusing on abstract debates about the state of the discipline, the aim is to provide researchers with the conceptual tools to think globally and design their own research projects. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
