After International Relations Critical Realism and the (Re)Construction of World Politics

After International Relations articulates a systematic critical realist response to a quest for more emancipatory methodologies in International Relations. Heikki Patomaki here establishes a way out of the international relations problematic which has puzzled so many great thinkers and scholars for the last two hundred years. After International Relations shows how and why theories based on the international problematic have failed; articulates an alternative, critical realist research programme; and illustrates how this research programme can be put to work to enable better research and ethico-political practices.Patomaki, Heikki is the author of 'After International Relations Critical Realism and the (Re)Construction of World Politics' with ISBN 9780415256599 and ISBN 0415256593.
