What Others Say

In just a few short years, e-IR has established a global reputation among academics and diplomats for the compelling content and debate which it provides.

‘e-International Relations is the place for an informed, spirited, and thoroughly civil discussion of international relations theory and practice with a special appeal for young scholars.‘
— Harvey Sapolsky, Professor of Public Policy and Organization Emeritus at MIT

‘e-IR is an invaluable resource, not only for university students — many of us are life-long students of international relations… As a long retired former diplomat with nearly 40 years’ experience in international affairs, I find the only drawback to browsing in e-IR is that I’m liable to find myself spending half the day reading (and itching to respond to) much of its material. May it continue to flourish.’
— Sir Brian Barder KCMG, former British ambassador to Ethiopia and Poland and high commissioner in Nigeria and Australia

‘e-International Relations is a fascinating web site that will be of interest not just to students of international relations but also to anyone interested in world politics… I’ve added it to my bookmarks and suggest that anyone interested in international relations does the same.’
— Steve Smith, Vice-Chancellor, University of Exeter

‘It is a pleasure to find such a well-organized, informative and interesting website amidst all the chatter on the internet. e-International Relations is a marvellous resource and forum for debate.’
— Margaret MacMillan, Warden of St. Antony’s College, Oxford University

‘e-IR may be the moment of democratization for International Relations…at last, a platform on which an informed conversation can take place and every voice heard.’
— Peter Vale, Professor of Humanities, University of Johannesburg; Nelson Mandela Chair in Politics Emeritus, Rhodes University

‘e-IR provides a refreshing alternative to the few dozen institutionally branded and well-financed sites that dominate the world of web-based analysis and commentary on international relations. In a few short years, e-IR has established itself as a credible and independent voice. The continuing success of this non-commercial, student-run venture is good news for scholars and practitioners alike.’
— Daryl Copeland, Professor and Senior Fellow at the Munk School of Global Affairs, University of Toronto

‘e-IR is an extremely valuable resource for students of International Relations. Methodologically pluralistic, theoretically ecumenical, and politically diverse, it provides access to a wide range of competing viewpoints about some of the most pressing issues facing citizens and scholars today. Long may it thrive.’
— Duncan Bell, Lecturer of Politics and International Studies, University of Cambridge

‘e-International Relations provides readers with much-needed, highly-pertinent, constantly-insightful, analyses of issues that shape our world.’
— Jamsheed K. Choksy, Professor of Iranian, Indian, Islamic, and International Studies, Indiana University

‘e-International Relations is a pioneering and remarkably well organised web-site edited by students of international relations. It offers a series of in-depth, scholarly articles and a forum for discussion on all aspects of international affairs from the past to the present providing a remarkably useful resource for students and anyone interested in the relations between states.’
— John Keiger, Professor of International History, University of Salford

‘This is an excellent initiative, providing a global forum for students and others interested in international affairs. It offers a welcome fund of information and opinion.’
— Ian Clark, E. H. Carr Professor of International Politics, Aberystwyth University
