Since this idea was introduced in 2015, it has been the subject of numerous conference panels, roundtables, workshops, forums, edited volumes and publications by over fifty academics. And yet, arguably, it has also been quite widely misunderstood, even among some of those who have adopted it as a research focus. Why should this be, and what can be done about it? 

This talk poses these questions and attempts to present the idea afresh - a kind of ‘Multiplicity: Take Two’. Does this new presentation help clarify the idea? And if not, does that suggest that there are more fundamental problems with the idea itself?

Prof Justin Rosenberg is Emeritus Professor of International Relations at the University of Sussex, and will visit NUPI on 2 February to talk about Multiplicity in IR.

Rosenberg was the Head of the International Relations Department from 2011 to 2014. He was also Co-Convenor of the BISA Working Group on Historical Sociology and International Relations from 2003 to 2014, and he remains Co-Convenor of the Sussex Working Group on Uneven and Combined Development.

This event is led by Research Professor at NUPI, Benjamin de Carvalho.
