The parrot, the monkey and the myth of emulation or extinction in IR
Journal Title: Conjuntura Austral: journal of the Global South - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 29
Abstract
This brief scenario analysis will argue that alternative ways of not only theorizing but also teaching, researching and publishing in IR (International Relations) need to be built on the foundations of the desacralization of the academic and intellectual production of the North and the bury for good of the notion that “the West” is coincident with modernity and that “the non-West” can enter the modern world (and its post-modern moment) only to the extent that it emulates the norms established in Western Europe and the United States.
