Last fall, Andrew Palmer (Canterbury Christ Church University) and I started a new network bringing together narrative scholars. Our aim is to inspire conversations and exchanges on narrative as theory and method in world politics and the study of International Relations (broadly understood).
One of the first successes of our collaboration is that we will be hosting a Standing Section at the EISA Pan European Conferences the coming three years: Narrating World Politics.
If you are working on narratives in relation to IR, conflict, peace or cooperation, please consider submitting your abstract. The call for papers for the upcoming PEC in Bologna(!) is now open.
Moreover, as an emergent network we run an email exchange list with information, calls for papers, etc., in relation to work on narratives in world politics. As it stands, we meet every second Friday of the month, 14:00-15:00 GMT / 15:00-16:00 CET, online. Interested in joining this network? Please subscribe here.
