Theoretical Developments in IR Approaches to the EU

Abstract

This panel presents and confronts ongoing research advancing new theoretical approaches in the study of International Relations in the European Union. Contributions pay particular attention to the role of ideas, discourses and narratives in foreign policy analysis. They also borrow from psychology, role theory, and cognitive linguistics to enrich the angles and scales of analysis in IR. The panel presents and discusses experimentations in advanced methodologies used in critical approaches to IR in Europe.
