critical theory in international relations
Definition
- The development of explicitly critical approaches to the study of international relations (IR)—that is, critical IR theory—is generally dated to the early 1980s. Today, it can be seen as a pluralistic family of theories, containing both modernist and postmodernist variants, including Frankfurt School–influenced IR theory, Gramscian international political economy, feminist IR theory, postmodern IR theory, and most recently, postcolonial theory.
