The Oxford Encyclopedia of Empirical International Relations Theory
The Oxford Encyclopedia of Empirical International Relations Theory provides an authoritative overview of the central approaches, methodologies, and topics of empirical international relations theory. Through over 150 entries by leading scholars, it examines the connections and gaps between theory, method, and empirical examination. The encyclopedia features research streams that focus on international relations theories that are testable, whether through numerical operationalizations, case studies, or a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. All of the articles appear online as part of the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Politics.
