Centre for the Study of Social and Global Justice (CSSGJ), University of Nottingham

The Centre for the Study of Social and Global Justice (CSSGJ) was created to provide a focus for research and teaching in relation to the most fundamental question facing us as citizens: how should we live?  Based in the School of Politics and International Relations at the University of Nottingham, CSSGJ offers a space for reflection, education and research in many different facets of social and global justice.

CRIPT – Contemporary Research on International Political Theory

CRIPT is one of oldest working groups within BISA, a group with a long tradition of fostering research in international political theory.  It aims to create a forum for those interested in the application of political and critical social theory to world politics. CRIPT is keenly committed to supporting the work of early-career researchers and sponsors events that provide career development opportunities for the next generation of theoretically oriented IR scholars. 

ISA Theory Section

The Theory Section is the part of the International Studies Association dedicated to debating and developing theory. It aims to promote the importance of theory in IR scholarship, foster research networks and opportunities for collaboration and exchange and enhance the dialogue between IR and Political Theory and the status of IR scholars as political theorists.
