World Politics: A Critical Introduction to International Relations

World Politics: A Critical Introduction to International Relations offers an engaging and accessible exploration of critical theories in international relations. Drawing on a rich array of narratives and perspectives, it provides a systematic introduction to feminist, queer, decolonial, and other critical approaches. The stories we are told about global affairs are instrumental in creating, shaping, and perpetuating global hierarchies of power and status. This pathbreaking new textbook critically analyses how the Eurocentrism embedded in the international system is the result of deliberate, often violent, political actions aimed at establishing world order. These actions continue to influence daily lives and shape societies in profound ways. Complete with practical examples, case studies, and vignettes, this textbook is essential reading if you are looking to integrate a broader range of critical perspectives into your study of International Relations. Catherine Goetze is a Senior Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Tasmania, Australia.
