Description
This essay discusses the relationship between culture and international relations. It argues that the discipline has always been interested in culture, and that this interest has been shaped by different historical moments.
Culture and International Relations contextually re-examines the history of international relations in order to explore how the discipline has imported and employed the concept of culture. The author challenges the notion that IR has only been interested in culture since the end of the Cold War by tracing different understandings of culture throughout its history.
