Description:To what extent is International Relations (IR) a globalized discipline? Weinvestigate the geographic diversity of authorship in seventeen IR journalsfrom Africa, East Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America, and theUnited Kingdom. Biographical records were collected for the authors of2,362 articles published between 2011 and 2015. To interpret the data, wediscuss how publishing patterns are driven by author incentives (supply)in tandem with editorial preferences and strategies (demand). Our mainfindings are twofold. First, global IR is fragmented and provincial. All journals frequently publish works by authors located in their own region—butthe size of these local clusters varies. Geographic diversity is highest inwhat we identify as the “goldilocks zone” of international publishing:English-language journals that are globally visible but not so competitivethat North American authors crowd out other contributions. Second, IR isbeing globalized through researcher mobility. Many scholars have movedto pursue their doctoral education and then publish as expats, returnees,or part of the diaspora. They are joined by academic tourists publishingin regions to which they have no obvious ties. IR journals thus featuremore diverse backgrounds than it may seem at first sight, but many ofthese authors were educated in North America, the United Kingdom, andEurope.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
