Critical approaches to foreign policy
18/05/2021 1:00pm
BISA Foreign Policy Working Group & BRISMES subcommittee on Outreach and Pedagogy
The event looks at foreign policy through different lenses. On the ontological level, it revisits foreign policy analysis through a critical discussion of how non-state actors as agents can be related to foreign policy matters. On the epistemological level, foreign policy is perceived through different approaches: A feminist perspective that links feminist critiques with current foreign policy practices. The focus lies in a critical stance on the transformative potential of feminist foreign policy.
