The Imperial Discipline

Más información sobre el libro

Challenging the conventional narrative of International Relations' origins, this book reveals its ties to the Round Table, a network of late 19th-century imperialists from British societies. Rather than emerging solely from the aftermath of WW1, IR was shaped by efforts to enhance imperial governance and control global affairs. The authors explore how the Round Table’s methodologies influenced the discipline, highlighting the overlooked significance of the Global South and the intersection of imperial racial ideologies with early IR scholarship.
