Marxism and the Origins of International Relations: A Hidden History: summary, description and annotation

This book investigates to what extent and in what ways Marxist writings and precepts on imperialism informed the so-called idealist stage of International Relations (IR). Though the formative years of International Relations coincide with a vibrant period in Marxist political thought, Marxism is strikingly absent from the historiography of the discipline. Building on the work of revisionist scholars, the book reconstructs the writings of five benchmark IR thinkers. Villanueva analyzes the cases of John Hobson, Henry Brailsford, Leonard Woolf, Harold Laski and Norman Angell to explore the influence that Marxism played in their thinking, and in the idealist years of the discipline more generally. He ultimately demonstrates that, although Marxist thought has been neglected by mainstream IR disciplinary historians, it played a significant role in the disciplines early development. As such, this book both challenges the exclusion of Marxist thought from the mainstream disciplinary histories of IR and contributes to a deeper understanding of the role it played in early 20th century IR theory.

The Palgrave Macmillan History of International Thought book series (HIT) publishes scholarly monographs and edited collections on the intellectual, conceptual, and disciplinary history of international relations. The aim of the series is to recover the intellectual and social milieu of individual writers, publicists, and other significant figures in either the field of International Relations or international political thought more broadly, and to assesses the contribution that these authors have made to the development of international theory. HIT embraces the historiographical turn that has taken place within International Relations as more and more scholars are interested in understanding both the disciplinary history of the field, and the history of international thought. Books that historically analyze the evolution of particular ideas, concepts, discourses, and prominent, as well as neglected, figures in the field all fit within the scope of the series. HIT is intended to be interdisciplinary in outlook and will be of interest to specialists and students in International Relations, International History, Political Science, Political Theory, and Sociology.

Series Editors Foreword

As Editor of the History of International Thought series, I aim to publish the highest quality research on the intellectual, conceptual and disciplinary history of International Relations. The books in the series assess the contribution that individual writersacademics, publicists and other significant figureshave made to the development of thinking on international politics. Central to this task is the historical reconstruction and interpretation that recovers the intellectual and social milieu within which their subjects were writing. Volumes have also traced the course of traditions, their shifting grounds or common questions, exploring heretofore neglected pathways of international theory and providing new insight and refreshed context for established approaches such as realism and liberalism. And the series embraces the historiographical turn that has taken place within academic International Relations with the growth of interest in understanding both the disciplinary history of the field and the history of international thought. A critical concern of the series is the institutional and intellectual development of the study of International Relations as an academic pursuit. The series is expressly pluralist and as such open to both critical and traditional work; work that presents historical reconstruction or an interpretation of the past, as well as genealogical studies that account for the possibilities and constraints of present-day theories.

The series is interdisciplinary in outlook, embracing contributions from International Relations, International History, Political Science, Political Theory, Sociology and Law. I seek to explore the mutually constitutive triangular relationship of international relations, theory and history. I take this to mean the appreciation of the importance of the history in the theory of international relations, of theory in the history of international relations and even of international relations in the history of international thought! In this last case, I hope that the series can become more broadly inter-cultural also, including scholarship from outside Europe and North America as well as delving into more of the non-Western context of the development of international relations theory, though I acknowledge that the Eurocentric/ethnocentric character of the field is presently mirrored in its disciplinary history.

Ricardo Villanuevas Marxism and the Origins of International Relations: A Hidden History represents another attempt to decipher the early foundations of the academic discipline of International Relations (IR). Although the book, like many others in the series, builds on the work of the fields revisionist disciplinary historians, Villanueva argues that not enough attention has been focused on the significant role that Marxism played in the early development of IR. He reminds us that that the formative years of IRs emergence as an academic field coincided with a rich and vibrant period of Marxist political thought that was largely focused on the topic of imperialism. The purpose of Villanuevas book is to explore the influence of Marxist thinking on those who were establishing the discipline of IR.

This involves revisiting those who have been dubbed the interwar idealists. Villanueva examines the writings of five so-called idealists: John Hobson, Henry Brailsford, Leonard Woolf, Harold Laski and Norman Angell. By contextualizing their writings, especially within the context of their work on imperialism, he finds that they all were deeply influenced by Marxism. This erudite study demonstrates, once again, the historiographical error of subsuming the early development of the field under the erroneous label of idealism. Not only does this study help us make sense of the fields early development and its indebtedness to Marxism and socialism, but Villanueva explores the enduring consequences of narrowly misconstruing the field in terms of dialogue solely between idealist/liberals and realists. In this manner, Villanueva makes a significant contribution to the History of International Thought series.
