In Quantum International Relations, James Der Derian and Alexander Wendt gather rising scholars and leading experts to make the case for quantum approaches to world politics. Contributors present the core principles of quantum mechanics--entanglement, uncertainty, superposition, and the wave function--as significant catalysts and superior heuristics for an accelerating quantum future. Facing a reality which no longer corresponds to an outdated Newtonian worldview of states as billiard balls, individuals as rational actors or power as objective interest, Der Derian and Wendt issue an urgent call for a new human science of quantum International Relations.
James Der Derian is a Professor of International Security at the University of Sydney. HIs research and teaching interests are in international security, information technology, international theory, and documentary film. Alexander Wendt is a Professor of Political Science at Ohio State University. He is interested in philosophical aspects of social science, with special reference to international relations.
