Lived International

A Life in International Relations

Beschreibung

Demonstrating that a life of praxis-living international relations-yields more insight than a life of theory alone, Steven Chan provides an antidote to a purely conceptual approach to International Relations. It is also the work of a poet with a distinguished literary reputation, recounting travel and poetry, engagement and responsibility.
