CENTRE CANNOT HOLDTHETOWARDS A NETWORK THEORY OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL GOVERNANCEIn this comprehensive critique of the ontological primacy of individualism and the modern state, Brian Dorman seeks to reframe contemporary political theory, reorienting it towards critical reflection on the complex dynamics of interactivity and away from the traditional, state-centric, rational-actor model that dominates international relations scholarship. Because we live in an interestingly interconnected world, Dorman argues that a social network theory and an inclusive and robust cosmopolitanism potentially offer viable alternative theoretical frameworks which may further inform how the future of global governance might unfold.autDorman, BrianthsParmentier, Mary JanedgcAshley, RicharddgcChhetri, NetractbBarrett, The Honors Collegehttps://hdl.handle.net/2286/R.I.18363173 pages115093930571626449921137422bdormanIn Copyright2013-05TextSocial Network TheoryOntological PrimacyGlobal GovernanceRational-actor Models
