AS 191.314 - Historical Sociology in International Relations Theory

Institution:

Johns Hopkins University

Subject:

Description:

This course explores recent attempts to reintroduce historical sociology into international relations theory. Rather than relying on scientific methodologies for producing knowledge about the international historical sociologists have questioned the methodological assumptions that ground theorizations of global politics. In this course we will trace the impact of historical sociology upon international theory through the works of Mann, Tilly, Skocpol, and Wallerstein. We will also assess the potential impacts of “third wave” historical sociology for international relations theory.
