520 _aFor much of the last century, 'international relations' and political theory' inhabited separate, clearly demarcated, intellectual spaces. In the academic discourse of international relations, 'theory' referred to linked sets of cause-and-effect propositions that purported to explain patterns of behaviour discernible in the international system, on the model of the natural sciences and closer to home, economics. Non-explanatory theory that is, theory that addressed normative issues or interpreted the underlying nature of the international order was undervalued.
