| Summary |
"Taking a broad look at international relations theories from the Roman Empire to the modern transformation of the European world picture, Kleinschmidt bridges the gap between theory and history by subjecting theory to the logic and method of historical inquiry. Drawing on original sources, he reads international relations theories against their social and cultural contexts, placing his emphasis on the ways in which changes in theory are reflections of a wider pattern of changes in culture."--BOOK JACKET |
