- A 2012 Review of International Studies article submitted to REF2014 overlaps with parts of this monograph’s chapters 1 and 2. The paper argued there is an affective aspect to discourse. The book expands this significantly, adding new arguments about affect and subjectivity/identity, developing a typology of four discursive models, and combining this framework with Laclau's approach to discursive hegemony. It contrasts its arguments with traditional realist and political psychology accounts and offers new empirical studies of the discursive contest between Bush and Democrats during the Iraq War, and the 1970s rise of neoconservatism, adding to literatures on US foreign policy.
