About those IR theory day jobs
Chris Brown's invitation in ‘IR Theory in Britain – the New Black?’ to consider whether theory's pre-eminence in British IR is warranted appears to have gone unheeded. He asks whether the consuming preoccupation with theory can be justified or will turn out to be as transitory as the ‘new black’ soon to be supplanted by the next ‘new black’. There are many possible explanations for the neglect of Brown's views, but whatever the reason, epistemolo…
Empire and Imperialism
Empire and Imperialism: A Critical Reading of Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri , Atilio A. Boron, London: Zed Books, 2005, pp. 141. Michael Walzer, reflecting in a 2002 Dissent article (vol. 49, Spring) upon the compelling issues in world politics, asked “Can there be a decent Left?” After reading Atilio A. Boron's impassioned and derisive critique of Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri's Empire (Cambridge MA: Harvard University Press, 2000), one wond…
Intervention and Empire
It is surprising that John Stuart Mill's international thought, which focuses on intervention and empire, has not attracted the attention it warrants. It is particularly surprising that Mill has been largely overlooked by the English School, whose members acutely appreciate the contributions of classical political philosophers to international discourse. Galvanised by his introspection on his life, especially the impact of interference in his psy…

Prager and Trudy GovierWaterloo: Wilfrid Laurier University Press, 2003, vi, 360pp, $34.95 paper (ISBN 0-88920-415-2)Mass human rights abuses claimed more lives in the 20th century than warfare. Between 1900 and 1987, 170 million people perished at the hands of their own governments. In comparison, 34.4 million people died in battle over the same period. In the post-Cold War era, genocide in Rwanda, ethnic cleansing in the f…
Allott in Wonderland
In his 1995 BISA lecture Philip Allott undertakes a ‘[reconciliation of] philosophy and international studies’ arguing that internationalists are the obvious leaders of the fifth historical moral enlightenment. Their role would be to envision worlds that transcend the prevailing ‘naturalistic’ view of international phenomena, which mires humankind in morally unacceptable states of affairs. A ‘naturalistic’ approach misconceives the proper role of…
Poverty in North America
Le livre du ndo-conservateur Charles Murray, Losing Ground: American Social Policy 1950-1980 a suscite aux Etats-Unis un debat serieux et passionnd sur la pauvrete et la ddpendance au bien-etre social. Murray soutient que le genereux systeme de bien-etre social a provoque un accroissement de la pauvret6 et une plus grande dependance a ce systeme et que la solution reside dans l'abolition du systeme de bien-etre social.

Taking Theory for Granted in International Politics
Recent assessments by ‘behavioralists' and others in international politics underscore the lack of quantity and/or quality of theories. While the value of established explanatory scientific theories is indisputable, the justification for clinging to this ideal in international politics no matter what turns up in the course of considerable empirical research merits close scrutiny. Disciplines progress as their students continually evaluate the exp…
