Patricia Owens, how do we prevent historical erasure?

Patricia Owens explores how the gender binary shaped the production and reception of international thought, what recovering overlooked voices means for present-day international relations and how centring historically marginalised perspectives alters theory and practice in the field.

Patricia Owens is Professor of International Relations at the University of Oxford. For the past few years, she directed an interdisciplinary research collaboration called “Women and the History of International Thought”.
