dc.description.abstractThis chapter surveys the research that inform the thinking of power in International Political Sociology (IPS). In the 1980s, International Relations (IR) and International Political Economy scholars reacted to agential and behavioral concepts of power inherited from Morgenthau and Dahl and developed analyses that emphasized embedded relations and structures, hence relational power and structural power. The sociological turn in IR in the 1990s conceptualized intersubjective, discursive, and ritualized practices as playing significant roles in power relations. These were developed in research on social recognition and identity, technologies of government, and social conventions and performativity. Work in political theory has engaged in research streams on resistance, developed more widely since the 1960s, and these have been taken up in IR and IPS since the 1990s. Among them, subaltern studies, cultural studies, post-structuralist theory, and feminist theory have mapped power in ways that may prove challenging, and fruitful, for IPS research.
