Interpretivism in International Relations (IIR)
To join a working group you must first join BISA.
The Interpretivism in International Relations (IIR) BISA Working Group was formed in 2012 and offers a forum within which scholars and research students in International Relations, Politics, History, Law, Sociology, and cognate disciplines can meet to discuss their ideas, present their work, and contribute to joint publications. Our core objective is to support and advance conversations about how to ‘interpret’ world politics in its various manifestations.
