| Abstract: | It is a clear indication of dissent when a field of studies can’t agree on a name, let alone a methodology. That is one reason why International Studies (or International Politics, or International Relations) is stimulating and why it differs so much on the two sides of the Atlantic. A second reason is that, even for an international historian, it provides a context where current events matter and policy-makers are heard.
Charles Jones read Moral Sciences and History at Clare College Cambridge, where he completed a doctorate on Anglo-Argentine relations. He taught international political economy at Warwick University, taking a Master’s in Philosophy, before he moved to Cambridge in 1998. He teaches international relations theory and Latin American International Politics and has also offered courses in the Centre of Latin American Studies, of which he was Director from 2000-2005, on the history of Argentine ideas and of Latin American external relations. Co-author, with Barry Buzan and Richard Little, of an influential critique of neorealism, The Logic of Anarchy (1993), he went on to write E. H. Carr and International Relations (1998). More recently Jones has been working on religion and international relations and the ethics and aesthetics of war and public violence. His most recent book, American Civilization (2007) explores hemispheric commonalities. |
