International Relations Theories
The fifth edition of this text provides coverage of international relations theories and arguments. The chapters explore the full spectrum of theoretical perspectives and debates, ranging from the historically dominant traditions of realism, liberalism, and Marxism to poststructuralism, green theory, and Global IR. Each chapter is dedicated to a particular theory and features a case study that bridges theory and practice, and shows how theory can…

Great illusions or great transformations? Human rights and international relations a hundred years on
Human rights have been in the practice of international relations, but they have not been central to academic thinking on International Relations (IR) for most of the century since the discipline became institutionalized in 1919. We suggest two related reasons for this relative neglect by the IR community. First, the US heartland of IR prioritized other institutions of international order during the 1950s and 1960s, primarily the balance of power…
After liberal world order
In recent years claims about the end times of the liberal world order have gathered force, with the talk of order giving way to disruption. While there are different accounts of these disruptive dynamics and their causes, it is nevertheless a rare moment in International Relations when all mainstream theories concur that the hegemony of the liberal world order is over and that there is considerable uncertainty about the global architecture that w…
Foreign Policy
This text provides an introduction to the ever-changing field of foreign policy. Combining theories, actors, and cases, chapters provide an interesting introduction to what foreign policy is and how it is conducted. With an emphasis throughout on grounding theory in empirical examples, the text features a section dedicated to relevant and topical case studies where foreign policy analysis approaches and theories are applied. Chapters clearly conv…
International Relations Theories
The fourth edition of this text provides coverage of international relations theories and arguments. The chapters explore the full spectrum of theoretical perspectives and debates, ranging from the historically dominant traditions of realism, liberalism and Marxism to postcolonialism and green theory. Each chapter is dedicated to a particular theory and features a case study that bridges theory and practice, and shows how theory can be used to ex…
The Globalization of International Society
This chapter lays the conceptual and theoretical foundations for the volume. It begins by examining four accounts of the globalization of international society. Of these, only Bull and Watson offer a robust account of how the social order of states became global. Yet despite this strength, this chapter moves beyond their approach by treating the development of international society as a process of globalization, not expansion; by adopting a more …
The globalization of international society
The globalization of international society" examines the institutional contours of contemporary international society, with its unique blend of universal sovereignty and global law, and its forms of hierarchy that coexist with commitments to international human rights. The book explores the multiple forms of contestation that challenge international society today: contests over the limits of sovereignty in relation to cosmopolitan conceptions of …
Civilising statecraft
In this contribution to the forum marking the publication of Andrew Linklater’s remarkable book on Violence and Civilization in the Western States-Systems we first locate the book in the context of Linklater’s overarching intellectual journey. While best known for his contribution to a critical international theory, it is through his engagement with Martin Wight’s comparative sociology of states-systems that Linklater found resonances with the wo…
North Korea
North Korea ranks among the least free societies in the world. The human rights situation inside the country has been described by the first UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Vitit Muntarbhorn as sui generis (in its own category). In 2014, the United Nations Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea released a landmark report. In its detail…
The Oxford Handbook of the Responsibility to Protect
'The Responsibility to Protect' provides an effective framework for responding to crimes of genocide, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. It is a response to the many conscious-shocking cases where atrocities - on the worst scale - have occurred even during the post 1945 period when the United Nations was built to save us all from the scourge of genocide.

Bandung 60 years on
This article examines the extent to which international society has been able to accommodate challenges such as the mid twentieth-century ‘revolt against the West’ and the twenty-first-century rise of new (especially non-Western) great powers. The Bandung conference of 1955 has commonly been seen as posing a threat to the fabric of international society by proliferating cultural and political differences. The authors show, on the contrary, that t…
Text and Context in the Responsibility to Protect
This is a reply to Aiden Hehir’s critique of our earlier article published in this journal, in which we analysed international negotiations over the 2011 Libya crisis and argued that the humanitarian norm of protecting civilians was germane in these debates and subsequent United Nations Security Council Resolutions. In the reply we challenge some of Hehir’s allegations as to what was argued in the original article, reaffirm the argumentation fram…
Contested Intervention
This article examines institutional patterns of leadership and followership in the UN Security Council with respect to the Responsibility to Protect principle. In a departure from existing literature on leadership and followership in international relations, which has hitherto been framed within a realist analysis, the article presents a constructivist account of leadership that sheds light on the strategies and scope of conditions for mobilizing…
Arguing Matters
This article analyses international negotiations over the 2011 Libyan crisis during the short weeks between the start of the uprising and the passage and implementation of un Security Council Resolution 1973. We make two arguments: first, following Risse, we demonstrate how and when argumentation around the humanitarian norm of protecting civilians mattered in these debates; second, we show that failure on the part of the supporters of the interv…
Leading from the front
The United States has historically been inconsistent and ambivalent about the responsibility to protect. Part 1 of the article sets out a theoretical framework for understanding how the United States aligns itself with the responsibility to protect; it does so by initially using the idea of norm localisation, which reveals important convergences and tensions between the international norm and the localised variant that we call ‘genocide and mass …
The English School
International relations is no longer an American social science: the subject is taught in universities in dozens of countries and is becoming a global discipline. The English School of international relations is the oldest and arguably the most significant rival to the American mainstream. The English School purports to offer an account of international relations that combines theory and history, morality and power, agency and structure. One obvi…
The International System – International Society Distinction
This chapter is a reassessment of the nature of the international system in English School theory. It argues that recent innovative theoretical work has threatened to bypass the system domain. We argue for the need to combine societal norms with a systemic logic, and that these analytics together have explanatory power in considering how the world hangs together. The chapter begins by revisiting classical English School writings on the system/soc…
Liberal World Orders
Distributing Duties and Counting Costs
Building on arguments advanced in a new book on the idea of ‘special responsibilities’ in world politics, this article brings to the foreground what is often in the background of R2P debates. Specifically, it explores how far a special responsibilities frame can bridge the gap between the ‘permissive’ character of the R2P regime and the cosmopolitan desire to see decisive humanitarian rescue as an obligation. Special responsibilities also provide…

The end of International Relations theory
With a view to providing contextual background for the Special Issue, this opening article analyses several dimensions of ‘The end of International Relations theory?’ It opens with a consideration of the status of different types of theory. Thereafter, we look at the proliferation of theories that has taken place since the emergence of the third/fourth debate. The coexistence and competition between an ever-greater number of theories begs the que…

Good International Citizenship
To date, there has not been a sustained attempt to bring the philosophy of the Third Way into foreign policy. In order to fill this gap, the authors turn to the idea of ‘good international citizenship’ pioneered by the former Australian Foreign Minister, Gareth Evans. It is argued that good international citizenship provides a conceptual rationale for an ethical foreign policy as well as a standard for judging the priority accorded to the goals o…
Society and Hierarchy in International Relations
The emerging pattern of crisis and war triggered by the terror attacks on New York and Washington in September 2001 and sustained through successive wars against Afghanistan and Iraq, provides a new context within which we must re-evaluate the English School claim that international society is a key element in the reality of world politics. From today's perspective, two dilemmas are undermining international society. There is the old fear that in…
Crisis, What Crisis? Liberal Order Building and World Order Conventions
Liberal internationalism is the default setting for thinking about the development of international institutions since 1919. It provides the template for practitioners whose job it is to juggle contending norms of power and justice, rights and responsibilities. For complex reasons, proponents of liberalism believe that the default needs to be reset — their critics agree. Liberalism is in trouble because of the fragility of the inter-state order c…

Libya and the state of intervention
The international response to the crisis in Libya has been remarkably quick and decisive. Where many other cases of mass atrocity crimes have failed to generate sufficient and timely political will to protect civilians at risk, the early response to Libya in 2011 has shown that the United Nations Security Council is able to give effect to the ‘responsibility to protect’ norm. While not an implementing party in a legal sense, the Australian govern…

East Timor and the new humanitarian interventionism
The fate of East Timor provides a barometer for how far the normative structure of international society has been transformed since the end of the Cold War. In 1975, the East Timorese were abandoned by a Western bloc that placed accommodating the Indonesian invasion of the island before the protection of human rights. Twenty-five years later, it was the protection of the civilian population on the island that loomed large in the calculations of t…

The Liberal Order and the Modern Project
A persistent struggle within liberal thought is how to recognise cultural particularity within an ethical system in which toleration does not become indifference. The liberal internationalism espoused by leading US-based authors assumes a single logic of modernity, in which adherence to liberal rules and institutions is both necessary and inevitable. The article finds an echo of this view in earlier English School work on the expansion of interna…

The politics of liberal internationalism
New Thinking on International Society
International society refers to the dominant diplomatic and normative discourse in the practice of world politics. At a minimum, its rules and institutions regulate interactions by sovereign communities, prescribing permissible forms of behaviour. There is also a deeper sense of society in which members share values about the ‘ends' that communities ought to try and achieve. While this diplomatic and normative discourse is thought to have existed…
The Rules of the Game are Changing’
We the Peoples
This article develops a critical conception of security by showing the limits of traditional realist and pluralist discourses. It does this by exploring the deficiencies of realist and pluralist approaches when it comes to thinking about the promotion of human rights. Realism leads to moral indifference and a myopic approach to security and pluralism is complacent about how the rules and norms of international society exclude humanitarian concern…
When the shooting starts
The evolution in the international system from bipolarity to unipolarity has led to shifting patterns of alliances in world politics. Since 9/11, the United States has demonstrated a willingness to use its overwhelming military power to deal with potential or real threats. Contrary to its policy of embedded power in the economic and security institutions of the post-1945 period, the United States increasingly views the multilateral order as an un…

Liberalism, International Terrorism, and Democratic Wars
Despite its claim that the questions ‘Why do wars occur?’ and ‘How can a stable peace be achieved?’ are fundamental to its raison d’etre, IR has been relatively slow to re-evaluate its theoretical frameworks in light of the violence generated by terrorist groups and the responses to these threats by state actors. This short article argues that such a re-appraisal is of some urgency. The so-called war on terror has highlighted the fact that certai…
Health Belief Model Interpretation of Compliance Factors in a Weight Loss and Cardiac Rehabilitation Programme
The aim of the research was to establish the common and/or different factors associated with compliance or noncompliance in either a weight loss or a cardiac rehabilitation programme. A questionnaire was designed from a revised formulation of the original Health Belief Model and a pilot study was run on 22 weight loss and 13 cardiac subjects. The modified questionnaire was then completed by 37 compliers and 19 noncompliers with a weight loss prog…

Health Behaviour Change following Persuasive Communication
This study was undertaken to assess the impact of a persuasively presented academic course in Health Psychology on students' health behaviour.

The students completed a self-report Lifestyle Evaluation Questionnaire (LEQ) at the beginning of the six-week course, at the completion of the course an…
The British Committee I
In his introduction to Martin Wight’s posthumously published British Committee papers on historical states-systems, Hedley Bull acknowledges that the essays ‘are part of a collective enquiry’, therefore ‘the reader coming fresh to these essays will occasionally have the impression that he is eavesdropping on a conversation.’ 1 The published essays of the Committee, 2 however, only tell part of the story. By piecing together a narrative history of…
Hedley Bull
In his memorial lecture to Martin Wight, Bull noted how he had been a ‘constant borrower’ from the mind of his mentor, ‘always hoping to transcend it but never able to escape it.’ There is no doubt that Bull thought about International Relations in quintessentially Wightean terms: the habit of thinking in threes; the search for patterns in the history of ideas about international relations; the belief that academics should keep a critical distanc…
Conclusion
All histories of ideas are open to contestation. Methodologically, the temptation is to re-write the text, re-interpret the idea, according to current scholarly conventions or prevailing political ideologies. Whilst recognising the twin dangers of presentism and imposing undue coherence upon a particular group of thinkers, the book has shown that there exists a family resemblance linking the work of key thinkers, in British International Relation…
The British Committee II
As the first stage of the Rockefeller funding was coming to an end, Butterfield wrote to Thompson noting with missionary-like enthusiasm his intention to lead the Committee into the next stage, subject of course to further Rockefeller support: I must confess that the last two or three meetings have been so good — the discussions, in my view, so much better than ever — hat I have been deterred from taking any step that would end the Committee. It …
E.H. Carr
E.H. Carr would have been more comfortable with the self-description ‘intellectual activist’ rather than ‘international theorist’. His interest in international relations was motivated by his desire to influence policy, whether it related to the response of the West to the Soviet Union or the economic imperative of reconstructing postwar British economy and society. This concern to shape the course of history in the early 1940s led to something o…
R.J. Vincent
There is a remarkable similarity between R.J. Vincent’s intellectual trajectory and that of his mentor, Hedley Bull. Both had an interest in strategic studies (although Bull’s contribution was more pronounced in this area1), both deployed Wight’s three traditions as a means to engage with classical theorists, and most significantly of all, they shared a theoretical investigation into the nature of order and justice in international society. Yet t…
Martin Wight
Wight’s contribution to International Relations is a matter of dispute. For those identifying themselves with the English School, Wight is something of a godfather. Such a caricature resonates with both a literal and a symbolic meaning. In the case of the former, Wight maintained throughout his life deeply held religious beliefs, principles which often sat uneasily alongside the body of his work on international theory. The reasons for suggesting…
Herbert Butterfield
In terms of his association with particular disciplines, Herbert Butterfield travelled in the opposite direction to E.H. Carr. Beginning his academic career as an historian, he became increasingly drawn to international relations theory, and in particular the nexus between religion and international politics. Indeed, his interest in international politics can be traced back to one of his earliest works, The Statecraft of Machiavelli first publish…

The English School
The evolution of the discipline of International Relations has been conditioned by a number of factors, principal among them are debates which are internal to the academic community, ignited by the publication of a key book or article which sets the agenda for the next stage in the discipline’s history. Another source of influence on the internal development of a discipline is derived from encounters with other academic communities such as politi…
Introduction
It is fitting that Carr's The Twenty Years' Crisis should be the point of departure for the first Special Issue of the Review of International Studies. One of the earliest appraisals of Carr's contribution to international relations appeared in the very first issue of the journal of the British International Studies Association.1 More recently, by publishing the annual E.H.Carr memorial lecture, the Review has been partly responsible for the Carr…

Human Rights in Global Politics
There is a stark contradiction between the theory of universal human rights and the everyday practice of human wrongs. This timely volume investigates whether human rights abuses are a result of the failure of governments to live up to a universal human rights standard, or whether the search for moral universals is a fundamentally flawed enterprise which distracts us from the task of developing rights in the context of particular ethical communit…
Introduction
The shock waves of what happened in 1989 and after helped make the 1990s a peculiarly interesting decade, and while all periods in history are by definition special, there was something very special indeed about the years following the collapse of the socialist project in the former USSR and Eastern Europe. Unfortunately, this has not been reflected in the theoretical literature. Thus although there have been many books on the end of the Cold War…
Inventing International Society
Inventing International Society is a narrative history of the English School of International Relations. After E.H. Carr departed from academic international relations in the late 1940s, Martin Wight became the most theoretically innovative scholar in the discipline. Wight found an institutional setting for his ideas in the British Committee, a group which Herbert Butterfield inaugurated in 1959. The book argues that this date should be regarded …
The Interregnum
The Interregnum: Controversies in World Politics 1989–1999 is a series of critical reflections on the major controversies in and about world politics in the 1990s. We are living in an era which seemingly defies description: in social and political theory, our age is frequently referred to as 'post-modern'; in international relations, we remain in the 'post-Cold War' age. The age is only characterised by what it is not. This collection of critical…

How might we live? Global ethics in a new century
Choice is at the heart of ethics, but our choices are never entirely free. Human choice is fettered by history, by context, by biology, by expected consequences and by imagination. Every choice has a history, and a price. In world politics, the scope for choice seems particularly fettered. Historical and geographical contextualization, and projected price have meant that politics beyond state borders has traditionally been understood as an arena …
