Research Pillar

International Relations

Oxford's traditional concern with international and global order is now combined with institutionalist analysis of governance and international political economy. We offer extensive opportunities for the study of diverse regions of the world. The study of political ideas and of IR theory beyond the West and globally is an expanding research theme.

Network

Our vibrant International Relations Network brings together academics, students and visitors from the Department and the wider Oxford community working in the area of politics and international studies.
