Pursuing the Big Picture: A Reply to Forsyth, Pal, and Pardesi

Barry Buzan | March 19, 2024

My thanks to Forsyth, Pal, and Pardesi, for taking the time to read Making Global Society (MGS), and write thoughtful responses to it. It is always interesting to be shown frankly how others filter what you have done through their own concerns and expertise. The responses cover a range of [...]

Structure, Culture and Gender: Makers of Global Society?

Hannah Forsyth | March 5, 2024

Becoming attentive to the material and the structural has linked me much more to the kinds of themes Barry Buzan raises in Making Global Society: A Study of Humankind Across Three Eras. Though in reading it I also became conscious that my inner cultural historian still has, and wants, a voice. [...]

Vanity project or stroke of genius? The puzzle of Making Global Society

Maïa Pal | February 27, 2024

This is a story about institutional transition, and most importantly, about the institutional transition to a modern global society. Modernity, for Barry Buzan in Making Global Society: A Study of Humankind Across Three Eras, is not the period that was established sometime between the early [...]

Global Society needs Global History

Manjeet Pardesi | February 20, 2024

Barry Buzan's Making Global Society: A Study of Humanking Across Three Eras is a big and an ambitious book. In this volume he tells us the story of 50,000 years of humankind by constructing a “world history” (p. xi) with the social structure of humankind as its object of study. In doing so, [...]

Scaffolding and Absences

George Lawson | June 15, 2021

Getting lucky

A few years ago, I got lucky. An editorial team that I was part of found ourselves at the end of our tenure and with money in the pot, money that needed to be spent. The lead editor proposed that the funds be used to host a workshop, which I would convene. They had just one [...]

Configurations vs. Causes: How should we analyse revolutions?

Jack Goldstone | June 1, 2021

George Lawson’s Anatomies of Revolution offers both rich descriptions and causal analyses of several important episodes in the history of revolutions and embeds these in arguments that advance the scope and quality of our theories of revolution.

Lawson’s description of revolutions is [...]

‘Anatomies of Revolution’ as if Gender Mattered

Maria Tanyag | May 18, 2021

I begin with George Lawson’s own admission in his book, Anatomies of Revolution, in footnote 10, page 88, that “[T]he story of women and revolution is not, on the whole, well told…” and that, “to its detriment, [is] no better in this regard”. Indeed, the book does contribute to the analytic [...]

Anatomies of Revolution: Beginning, End, or Interregnum?

Eric Selbin | May 4, 2021

George Lawson’s Anatomies of Revolution is a brilliant book: cleverly conceived, beautifully crafted, and pretty much the state of the art with reference to revolution. Lawson judiciously walks us through where we’ve been, are, and proffers a glimpse of where we must go, but it is by [...]
