International Relations at LSE: A History of 75 Years - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Over the 75 years of its existence the Department of International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science has grown into one of the most prominent centres world-wide for the study of international politics. Students and academics alike have contributed to the establishing of the Department as one of excellence and, more characteristically, plurality. From 1971, it plays home to one of the most innovative and cutting- edge Journals in the field, Millennium: Journal of International Studies.

For the first time, this book provides an insight into the Department’s early and recent history, discusses the legacy and achievements of some of its outstanding figures, and invites sustained reflection on the mission underlying this institution. With no pretence of exhaustiveness, the collection of essays combines memory and analysis to sketch out experiences, interpretations and direction of this collective enterprise.

Reflecting the diversity of the Department over the years, the book features hitherto unpublished manuscripts by Martin Wight and F.S. Northedge as well as new contributions by James Der Derian, Hugh Dyer, Ronen Palan, Mark Hoffman, among others. Topics touched upon include: the study of international relations at LSE, the contribution of Millennium: Journal of International Studies to the development of the field of IR Theory, the legacy of Hedley Bull, Susan Strange, and Phillip Windsor.
