It follows a diverse group of men and women from across Europe and beyond who pioneered the field since 1914, building institutions and designing plans for a new world order.

Contrary to popular belief, it reveals that IR did not emerge solely from the minds of Anglo-American men following the First World War. Instead, it evolved through the pioneering efforts of a diverse group of individuals from across Europe and beyond, who laid the foundation for the field since 1914. These visionaries, akin to architects, not only constructed institutions such as university departments, journals, and libraries but also crafted blueprints for a new global order. Through their interactions with the League of Nations and its intellectual cooperation bodies, they worked tirelessly to achieve their goals, drafting treaties, petitions, and political commentary. However, their aspirations were abruptly halted by the outbreak of the Second World War. Their remarkable story raises profound questions about the status of IR beyond the inter-war period, shedding light on the complex and evolving nature of this field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 632g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 158 x 236 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781316511619\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jan Stoeckmann","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44123427602682,"sku":"9781316511619","price":89.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679461718287_book.jpg?v=1679677004","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-architects-of-international-relations-building-a-discipline-designing-the-world-19141940-9781316511619","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
