The Language of Interstate Relations

Autor P. Twardzisz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2013
In challenging the widely held belief in the ubiquity of the personification of the political state, this book strives to de-politicize research and to de-mystify conceptual metaphor. Opposed to mainstream cognitive assumptions, it provides detailed data-driven research and one realistic solution to many of the dilemmas.
