8th Pan - European Conference on International Relations

Warsaw, Poland
18-21 September 2013

'The world in crisis' is a phrase that we often hear, especially in recent years - be it the eurozone crisis, the global economic crisis after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the crisis of legitimacy for a number of states in North Africa and the Middle East, the crisis of US hegemony, climate change and (un)sustainable development, and so on. Curiously, this has led to remarkably little self-reflection among International Relations communities, especially with regard to two key aspects of the phrase: (1) whose 'world' is it that is in crisis, and (2) what is labelled as a 'crisis' and what is not.
