Stories of Water/Storied Water: Agential Realism and New Thalassology in the 21st-century Literary Classroom by Jasmine Sharma

“…This article will attempt to make four contributions: (1) it will describe the concepts of materialist ecocriticism, and new thalassology, and situate the conceptualizations within the broader fields of environmental humanities, (2) it will reinscribe the image of water as a densely plural and a tentacular living organism using Karen Barad’s theory of agential realism and Stacy Alaimo’s notion of transcorporeality, (3) it will briefly overview hydroficion as a critically apt genre for interrogating the disoriented dialectics between humans and nonhumans, and consider Emmi Itäranta’s young adult dystopian fiction, Memory of Water (2012) as the primary entry point in de-anthropocising wet matter, and (4) it will delineate the relevance of water narratives and the inclusion of such narratives in higher education curricula. …”

REFLEXIVITY IN THE STUDY OF WARFARE: IS THERE ADDED VALUE FOR THE DISCIPLINE OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS? by Srdjan Korac

“…The article examines whether reflectivist approach to epistemology in the study of warfare can amend some weaknesses of the rationalist/positivist canon of mainstream International Relations (IR) theories. The author argues for the existence of a new epistemic situation for the IR researcher: an ontological transformation of the military profession in post-industrial societies that has created a sacralised civic duty to fight in war. …”
