In this theory talk, Barry Buzan discusses the central challenges of connecting IR theory to history on the one hand and to sociology on the other. He describes the contemporary regionalization of international society, noting the tensions between the legitimating principle of sovereign equality for international society on the one hand and the actual practices of hegemony in much of international politics on the other before sketching an English School map of the world. Buzan further elaborates on regional security complex theory and explains the relative decline in the securitization of terrorism.
