Description: International relations theory has broadened out considerably since the end of the Cold War. Topics and issues once deemed irrelevant to the discipline have been systematically drawn into the debate and great strides have been made in the areas of culture/identity race and gender in the discipline. However despite these major developments over the last two decades currently there are no comprehensive textbooks that deal with race gender and culture in IR from a postcolonial perspective. This textbook fills this important gap. Persaud and Sajed have drawn together an outstanding lineup of scholars with each chapter illustrating the ways these specific lenses (race gender culture) condition or alter our assumptions about world politics. This book: covers a wide range of topics including war global inequality postcolonialism nation/nationalism indigeneity sexuality celebrity humanitarianism and religion; follows a clear structure with each chapter situating the topic within IR reviewing the main approaches and debates surrounding the topic and illustrating the subject matter through case studies; features pedagogical tools and resources in every chapter - boxes to highlight major points; illustrative narratives; and a list of suggested readings. Drawing together prominent scholars in critical International Relations this work shows why and how race gender and culture matter and will be essential reading for all students of global politics and International Relations theory.
