Description

This collection of essays, all by members of the Politics Department at Monash University, charts recent developments in many areas of political science, especially international relations and political theory. But it is not only about politics as a discipline: it deals also with current political issues and their implications, including Australian politics and foreign policy, peace research and the theory of the state. The argument is also put forward that politics may be reconstituted in future as a cultural science.
