It focuses on the following themes: feminism, environmentalism or green theory, the English School, critical theory, constructivism, postmodernism, and postcolonialism. Additionally, a separate chapter on globalization shows that while mainstream (neo)realist international relations theories respond hostilely to globalization and liberal-pluralist theories react benignly to it, postpositivist theories positively welcome it. The book offers a competent meta-theoretical gridwork, showing on which side of the opposing disciplinary positions in the fourth debate each of the seven theories are located. It is a comprehensive guide to the postpositivist restructuring of the discipline of international relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to researchers and students of political science, international relations, history, humanities, and literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45242779533463,"sku":"9781032587103","price":3498.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032587103.webp?v=1769233031","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/postpositivist-international-relations-theory-a-globalist-restructuring-9781032587103","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
