Battlestar Galactica as methodology

February 21st, 2010 | Posted by ptj in ProfPTJ's Podcasts - (1 Comments)

Here are my comments from the (in)famous Battlestar Galactica panel from ISA 2010 in New Orleans. The paper in question is still rather rough, but I’m happy with the overall shape it’s taking.

My somewhat elliptical discussant comments from a panel entitled “What Language(s) Do You Speak? Knowledge, Networks and the Sociology of IR,” from the 2010 ISA conference in New Orleans.

Two Philosophers Shoveling Snow

February 17th, 2010 | Posted by ptj in ProfPTJ's Podcasts - (0 Comments)

Here is the live performance of my not-a-classic-of-philosophical-drama dialogue “Two Philosophers Shoveling Snow,” an earlier version of which was posted over at The Duck a few days ago. The attached file is the slides from which Benjamin Herborth and I read the dialogue during a roundtable on critical realism at the 2010 ISA annual meeting. I took the part of “Roy” the critical realist, and gave Benjamin the part of “Will” the pragmatist — and he started his subsequent presentation by announcing that he was not Will. Obviously I’m not Roy, either.

On Comparison

February 12th, 2010 | Posted by ptj in ProfPTJ's Podcasts - (0 Comments)

This is a little presentation I whipped up for the ISA Compendium project. The title and the topic — “On Comparison” — are a bit of an outtake from my forthcoming book The Conduct of Inquiry in International Relations.

Here’s a talk on my new book “The Conduct of Inquiry in International Relations” — scheduled for release this summer — that I gave at the University of Southern California, 25 January 2010. Watch this space for more book talks over the next few months.
