Description
This roundtable offers reflections on the life and work of Professor Andrew Linklater, who sadly passed away in March of this year. A trailblazer in the discipline of International Relations, Linklater’s exceptional scholarship shaped IR in both recognisable and subtle ways. His writings meld diverse disciplines, including Philosophy, International Relations, Politics, Sociology and History. A prolific thinker, Linklater’s most important works include Men and Citizens in the Theory of International Relations; The Transformation of Political Community: Ethical Foundations of the Post-Westphalian Era; The Problem of Harm in World Politics; and The Idea of Civilization and the Making of the Global Order. Linklater was not only a brilliant scholar but an inspirational teacher for scores of students across continents. An outstanding mentor, his kindness and generosity were legendary. This roundtable is a small tribute to the late Andrew Linklater.
