What is Postcolonialism? Why is it considered a unique means of assessing IR? Discuss Edward Said’s contribution to Postcolonialism approaches, including the critique of Eurocentrism; why is this important in the study of International Politics? How would Postcolonial scholars criticize Realism and Liberalism? In your informed view, are mainstream IR theories sufficient to explain the behavior of non-Western states? Why or why not? Finally, discuss Mohammed Ayoob’s Subaltern Realism. How is it different from mainstream Realist thinking?
The term ‘Eurocentrism‘ denotes a world-view which, implicitly or explicitly, posits European history and values as “normal” and superior to others, thereby helping to produce and justify Europe’s dominant position within the global capitalist world system.
