The changing regional faces of peace: Toward a new multilateralism
From the ‘Great War’ to World War II
International Relations is a dynamic discipline, evolving in response to contemporary world politics. An Introduction to International Relations offers a foundational explanation of the theories, systems, actors and events that shape external relations between nations in today's global society. This edition retains the existing structure, grouping chapters on theories, international history and the 'traditional' and 'new' agendas, while acknowled…
The Iraq War 20 years on: Towards a new regional architecture
The consequences of the Iraq War of 2003 continue to reverberate throughout the Middle East and wider world in multiple, if still underacknowledged, ways. Though subsequent regional developments have taken centre stage—notably those surrounding the Arab Uprisings and the subsequent civil wars and interventions in Libya, Syria and Yemen—the effects of the Iraq War remain powerfully present. A watershed event, it has generated major and irreversibl…
Stuck on a hostile path? US policy towards Iran since the revolution
Since Iran’s revolution in 1979, relations between Washington and Tehran have been invariably fraught. The Trump presidency saw escalating tensions which the Biden administration has sought to moderate with uncertain results. This article locates contemporary events within a broader analysis of US policy towards Iran, which for over four decades has oscillated between attempted rapprochement and hostility short-of-war. Seeking to explain the fluc…
Regional powers, global aspirations: Lessons from India and Iran
This paper offers a revised and decentred perspective on regional power behaviour in world politics. Our revisionist approach departs from existing accounts by incorporating three key elements. First, in focusing attention on the regional–global nexus within which the international relations of regional powers have been conducted, demonstrating how regions can be mobilised as part of a status-seeking strategy at the global level. Second, examinin…

The Middle East and Covid-19: Time for collective action
Revised: Nov 6 2021 The shortfalls of multilateral and regional organizations in respect of handling the COVID-19 pandemic have been well rehearsed by scholars and policy makers in multiple publications and statements. While the World Health Organization (WHO) and its regional offices have coordinated global responses, regional organizations, like the European Union, Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or African Union, have played complement…
Mena and the EU: Contrasting Approaches to Region, Power and Order in a Shared Neighbourhood
This article aims to analyse the different power relationships and resulting interactions between the major Middle Eastern powers and the European Union in their shared neighbourhood. After examining some background conditions relating to the local and international power dynamics in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), it considers first the perspective of the major MENA powers, then moves to a discussion of the different interactions that h…
States and sovereignty in the Middle East: Myths and Realities
To many observers the Middle East states system since the Arab uprisings remains at a critical juncture. The uprisings, which started late in 2010, were revolutionary in their initial impact, but beyond Tunisia, it is the counterrevolutionary movement has proved more durable. 1 However, the region has witnessed multiple regime changes alongside intense levels of popular mobilisation, violence and transnational activism. The results have been high…

Revisiting the Iranian Crisis of 1946: How Much More Do We Know
The Iranian crisis of 1946 occupies a significant place in the early history of the Cold War. While this fact has been increasingly acknowledged by scholars, there remain aspects of the crisis, in particular the motivations of the major actors involved, which demand further exploration. This article reconsiders the roles of early Cold War actors, including the United Kingdom, the United States, the Soviet Union and Iran itself in the Azerbaijan c…
The Iraq War ten years on: Assessing the Fallout
Assessing the long-term fallout from the 2003 Iraq War from three perspectives—the state, regional and international—this article argues that the war generated a series of changes that have had a central impact on the political evolution and international relations of the Middle East, though not in the manner anticipated by either its supporters or critics. The war and its consequences, which have become merged with developments surrounding the A…
Between West and non-West: Latin American Contributions to International Thought
This article seeks to highlight the significant contribution of Latin American scholarship to the further promotion and understanding of more ‘global’ approaches to International Relations. It focuses on the immediate post-independence period and explores the internationalist perspective of Andres Bello, an enormously influential continental scholar, publicist, and political figure, whose work is little known outside South America. It argues that…
Regionalism in Africa and the Middle East: Implications for EU Studies
This article analyses and contrasts the growth and development of regionalism in Africa and the Middle East and considers what lessons can be drawn from these regions for studies of the European Union. Rather than asking why regionalism has failed in certain parts of the world, while succeeding in Europe, it takes a more nuanced view of the processes associated with regionalism, regionalization and regional integration. It identifies the particul…
History, Community Milieu, and Christian-Muslim Differentials in Contraceptive Use in Sub-Saharan Africa
In the globalization discourse, Christianity and Islam are often construed as representing two traditions that are conflicted and incompatible. This study engages the 'clash of civilizations' discourse by examining Muslim-Christian differentials in the use of modern contraception in Nigeria, where Christians have a much higher contraceptive prevalence, and Tanzania, where Muslims are somewhat more likely to use contraception. Employing data from …

Global Politics of Regionalism: Theory and Practice
This book explores the phenomenon of regionalism. In a seeming contradiction to globalization, there is a growing tendency for countries to enter into regional arrangements as a response to the pressures of operating in a global marketplace. But regionalism is also emerging as a phenomenon in its own right, serving distinct purposes and taking different forms in different areas. The contributors explore how these patterns impact on wider issues s…

This article offers an overview of the history and development of regionalism with a view to providing a framework for thinking about its progress and prospects in different parts of the world. After a preliminary discussion of the problems encountered in defining regions and regionalism, the article moves to a historical and comparative analysis, ranging widely to include examples from many different regions. It argues that regionalism should be…
Down but not out? The Kurds in international politics
The capacity of the Kurds—a scattered, divided and stateless people—to make headline news never ceases to astonish. Perhaps most sensational were the extraordinary events early in 1999 which accompanied the seizure in Kenya and subsequent extradition to Turkey of Abdullah Ocalan, leader of the Kurdish Workers Party, with its now familiar acronym, the PKK. Ocalan's arrest, and his sentencing to death by a Turkish court in June 1999, are only the m…
Arabs and Jews in the development of the Colombian Caribbean 1850-1950
This contribution surveys Arab and Jewish immigration to the northern (Caribbean) coast of Colombia. It deals with three migratory waves: Sephardic Jews, mainly from Curaçao and the Dutch Antilles, who arrived in Colombia in the latter half of the eighteenth century; Syro-Lebanese first from the Ottoman Empire, then Syria, Lebanon and Palestine, who arrived between 1880 and 1930; and Levantine and European Jews, who arrived in the 1930s and 1940s…
