Worlding beyond the West
World Politics, World Literature, World Cinema
The aesthetic turn in international relations (IR) has raised important questions about the boundaries of the discipline. This article seeks to tackle the question of (inter)disciplinarity by taking the concepts of world politics, world literature, and world cinema and asking how far they can be investigated within a single intellectual framework. It addresses “world politics” by discussing a range of recent publications which have dealt explicit…
World Cricket as a Postcolonial International Society
This article brings together the English School literature, postcolonial approaches to culture, the historical sociology of sport, and IR's own tentative engagement with sport to argue that world cricket constitutes a sui generis postcolonial international society in the sporting sector. The international society tradition within IR has been criticised for its failure to take sufficient note of the history of imperialism, and contributions from p…
Life at the Cutting Edge
“Political Science is a very diverse discipline in which almost everyone feels in the minority, if not persecuted.” Robert Jervis, interviewed in Review of International Studies 30(4) (2004): 563 As Career Development Officer (CDO) at a leading university (which cannot, for obvious reasons, be identified here), I often have to advise colleagues concerned about various aspects of their professional lives. These are known within the CDO community a…
Cinematic IR, the Sublime, and the Indistinctness of Art
This article begins with some intellectual-historical reflections on the aesthetic turn in IR theory, the concept of the sublime in aesthetics, and the confluence of these two streams in the context of ongoing developments in world politics. With particular reference to the cinematic tributary of the aesthetic turn, it is argued that aesthetic IR's self-presentation as `critical' leads to a dilemma: either works of art are irrelevant to IR, or ae…
The state of the art in German IR
Gunther Hellmann, Klaus Dieter Wolf, and Michael Zürn (eds.), Die neuen Internationalen Beziehungen. Forschungsstand und Perspektiven in Deutschland (Baden-Baden: Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft, 2003), pp. 614. The intensification in recent years of interest in the history and sociology of IR (as a discipline) has been manifested in a growing number of publications dealing with aspects of different IR communities. The appearance of a weighty and semi-…

Who contextualizes the contextualizers? Disciplinary history and the discourse about IR discourse
Recent literature on the disciplinary history of IR has furthered our understanding of aspects of the discipline without specifying its own methods clearly enough. ‘Critical’ or ‘internal discursive’ disciplinary historians have rejected Quentin Skinner's contextual approach to the history of ideas in ways that suggest they have misunderstood it, and have failed to appreciate its potential. Furthermore, ‘critical IR’ itself can and should be subj…
