The Palgrave Handbook on the Pedagogy of International Relations Theory is a collection that explores how best to teach the systems of thought that organize the study of international relations and global politics. All chapters document and advance intradisciplinary conversations about the challenge of helping students understand the nuances of IR theory. Authors document strategies they have successfully applied to that challenge in a variety of contexts and encourage readers to creatively adapt to the challenges of their own pedagogical contexts. The handbook is organized around four themes – teaching theory for particular audiences and classroom contexts, tips for teaching specific theories, an exploration of pedagogical approaches to teaching theory, and pedagogical considerations specific to courses in geographic regions.
“Two recently published books suggest that DH and modernist literary studies have circled around one another in a transformational way. DH methodologies and critical lenses have achieved a methodological sophistication in which modernist literary studies can now share. … The two books together also serve as a reminder of just how recent many of our academic formations are.” (Emily Christina Murphy, Modernism, modernity, modernismmodernity.org, April 21, 2026)
“This volume is a monumental contribution to the global sociology of IR and an unrivalled account of pedagogical practices around the world. … the taught discipline of IR theory has a life of its own. Although it is inseparable from the published discipline, the IR classroom is distinctive for its diversity and its many localized variations. This feature of IR’s intellectual life should be celebrated, and the editors of this volume should be commended for bringing it to light.” (Aaron Ettinger, International Journal, April 13, 2026)
