Abstract: "This book critically examines the discipline of International Relations in Europe. It presents the state of the art, focusing particularly on International Relations theory and theoretical debates in Western and Central European countries." "The authors seek to strengthen knowledge about different ways of cultivating the discipline; to intensify pan-European communication concerning IR theory; to contribute to improving the quality of theorizing; and finally to consider future directions for the discipline in Europe." "This will be a key volume for everyone interested in International Relations and IR theory, particularly those with an interest in Europe."--Jacket.
