FERREIRA, Marcos Farias e SARAMAGO, André. Booth and Smith in Aberystwyth: theory is always for someone and some purpose. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2012, n.36, pp.47-59. ISSN 1645-9199.
If for Ken Booth and Steve Smith theory is always for someone and for some purpose - following Robert W. Cox’s critical investigation - their commitment with the real world begins right in the pages of a theory textbook. With this article, we set up to bring some light to what we think is one of the most crucial episodes in the recent IR disciplinary history. at the same time we set up to develop the critical potential of the discipline based on an approach that both recognizes the legacy of political realism - but also of its shortcomings - and the need to give voice to traditionally marginalized perspetives and interests.
