The Grammar of Status Competition (eBook, ePUB)

International Hierarchies and Domestic Politics

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In The Grammar of Status Competition, Paul David Beaumont tackles the question of what status is and how to measure it in the field of international relations. Given states, statesmen, and citizens care about and pursue status despite its difficulty to assess, Beaumont argues that we can study international status hierarchies via states and citizens themselves who also grapple with this same status ambiguity. Advancing a new theoretical framework for investigating how theories of international status (TIS) inform policy making, this book will be useful to IR scholars and students looking to make sense of how states construct and compete in hierarchies of their own making.
