- This book develops a novel theoretical treatment of recognition in IR, combining grassroots perspectives and political and psychoanalytic theory. It is based on extensive fieldwork (including more than 200 interviews, gathered in six visits made over four years) during a challenging, politically tense period, 2010-2014. The complex material gathered is explored in a variety of ways in order to explain citizens’ perspectives on their state’s relations with the UK, China and southern Africa, and how these link to their own understanding of and relationship to the state, to help draw lessons on broader trends in IR.
