Description:

This book examines the problem of difference in the study of global politics by exploring the limits and possibilities of distinct forms of worlding and the global imaginaries they give rise to, both within academia and beyond it.

Review Quotes:

Is "international relations" obsolete? It might well be, unless it demarginalizes the histories, voices and ideas of the non-Western world. This book is a timely and valuable call for a more inclusive and truly global discipline.

Amitav Acharya, American University, USA.

Pioneering scholars, Tickner and Blaney, have produced a truly excellent volume that provides a fitting capstone for the trilogy and which serves admirably to advance the cause of postcolonialism in the Social Sciences.

John M. Hobson, University of Sheffield, UK.

This is a fascinating conclusion to a marvellous trilogy. Claiming the International should be essential reading for all IR scholars, it constitutes a powerful and persuasive account of what worlding IR actually means.

Kimberly Hutchings, London School of Economics, UK.
