We are excited to see our special issue on "Empire and Radical International Thought" out with South Atlantic Quarterly. It was a pleasure to collaborate with Begüm Adalet as guest-editors of this issue. This special issue brings together political theorists and international relations scholars and examines the multifaceted dimensions (including political, ideological, and psycho-affective) of a radical international thought. Going beyond articulations of anti-colonial struggle at the national level, the issue charts radical theories and praxes of insurgency and revolutionary violence and brings an internationalist framework to bear on various historical moments. https://lnkd.in/gMpcwBHN

The distinction between modernist and postmodernist theories in international relations (IR) arises from fundamentally different assumptions about knowledge, truth, and the nature of international politics. Modernist theories, such as realism and liberalism, are characterized by their reliance on objective truths and universal principles, while postmodernist theories, including feminism and constructivism, challenge these notions by emphasizing the subjective nature of knowledge and the importance of context.

Read the last article by Giacomo Biondi! For decades, political scientists and experts on Latin America have relied on a limited range of theories, with the classic liberal/conservative dichotomy dominating the discussion. However, this perspective has significant limitations. This article proposes a cross-sectional approach that shifts the focus from political ideologies to the region's deep historical and cultural roots. The model provides a comprehensive and accessible toolbox for understanding Latin America's political movements and societal changes, helping students connect the dots between past and present to anticipate future developments better. #LatinAmerica #CulturalAnalysis #HistoryAndPolitics #MondoBlog https://lnkd.in/dKtjJ4BG

The emergence of post-colonial theory has provided critical insights into the legacies of colonialism and the perspectives of non-Western states, enriching the discourse in international relations. By examining the ongoing impacts of colonial histories, giving voice to subaltern groups, and critiquing dominant Western narratives, post-colonial theory challenges traditional frameworks and encourages a more nuanced understanding of global politics. This theoretical approach highlights the importance of recognizing diverse experiences and perspectives in shaping contemporary international relations, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and equitable discourse.

Balakrishnan's application of this idea to the post-Cold War era challenges the optimistic narratives surrounding liberal democracy, particularly Fukuyama's thesis. By framing the aftermath as one characterized by economic instability and foreign policy missteps, Balakrishnan encourages readers to critically assess the sustainability of liberal democratic ideals in practice.Žižek’s endorsement of Antagonistics as a guide for navigating contemporary chaos underscores its relevance in today’s political landscape, where many are grappling with uncertainty and disillusionment regarding established political systems. The book invites readers to engage with complex realities rather than accept simplistic narratives about progress and success.
