Paperback edition. ISBN: 9781848132399.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecentering International Relations seeks to actively confront, resist, and rewrite International Relations (IR), a heavily politicized field that is deeply centered in the North\/West and privileges certain perspectives, pedagogies, and practices. Is it possible to break the chain of signifiers that always leads IR studies back to the US and its European allies?\n\nThrough engagement with a variety of theories (ranging beyond the usual mainstream versus critical\/alternative binary), and conversations with scholars, activists, and students, the authors invite the reader to participate in an accessible yet provocative experiment to decentre the North\/West when we learn, study and do IR. In particular, they examine how the pressing issues of human rights, globalization, peace and security, and indigeneity are simultaneously normative inventions meant to sustain particular power structures and sites for insurgent and subversive attempts to live IR at the margins.\n\nSelbin and Nayak have written a remarkable and provocative re-envisioning of a globally important subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Zed Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45793962983477,"sku":"ByrdShop_1848132395","price":70.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781848132399_f1b2df97-465d-40bf-afe4-a3c8959742d4_b602b147-ad03-4ce0-8165-d510aae412cd_304e3552-3681-48d2-ad88-32d8f290f233.jpg?v=1792077560","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/decentering-international-relations-9781848132399","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
