Latin America in Global International Relations

"This is a definitive book on Latin American and Caribbean theoretical contributions to the International Relations discipline. Scholars and students will find thorough accounts of the region's intellectual debates, the strengths and weaknesses of local conceptual developments and how they dialogue with mainstream Euro-American scholarship. But, above all, it is a lucid argumentation in favor of inclusiveness and diversity in a field long dominated by the Global North."

Natalia Saltalamacchia, Professor, Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (ITAM)

"A most comprehensive contribution to globalising and decolonising the IR discipline, making visible philosophical and empirical foundations of Latin American perspectives in international relations. Deciancio, Tussie and Acharya brought together a critical and inspiring textbook that expands the intellectual horizons of a discipline that has long been dominated by a narrow Euro-American centric framing of thinking and practising global politics. This is a must-read for all interested in more inclusive accounts of world politics and theorising international relations."

Pia Riggirozzi, Professor of Global Politics, University of Southampton

"A brilliant and pathbreaking book! An absolute must for IR scholars and students from and interested in Latin America and the Global South."

Jorge A. Schiavon, Professor of International Relations, Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas (CIDE)

"Under the outstanding editorship of Melisa Deciancio, Diana Tussie, and Amitav Acharya this pioneering volume is essential reading for students and teachers of International Relations specifically with reference to Latin America, and specialists of Global International Relations. It is also a timely intervention in the fields of International Relations and Political Science at large. For anyone serious about developing more inclusive approaches in the discipline, this book will serve as a valuable example."
