“…6 No es este el lugar para entrar en el vivo debate que durante los últimos 20 años ha llevado a cabo la academia sobre los rasgos de la propia disciplina científica denominada Relaciones Internacionales en términos de interdisciplinariedad. Pero no sobra llamar la atención sobre la existencia de una tendencia representativa que, alineándose con el clásico estudio de Quincy Wright (1955), reivindica para la disciplina en sí un carácter inter o al menos multidisciplinar (Ashworth, 2008;Buzan, 2016;Aalto, 2015).…”

Este artículo analiza la (r)evolución de los estudios de grado en relaciones internacionales en España durante su primera década de existencia. Tras resumir las dificultades para su puesta en marcha, que culmina en 2009, presenta el desarrollo de la oferta en términos de disponibilidad de plazas y de universidades, con especial atención a la titularidad y dispersión geográfica. Debate, asimismo, rasgos particulares como son las elevadas notas de corte y su característica de título combinable en dobles grados. El enorme éxito, manifestado en la vertiginosa rapidez de su proliferación, deja para la próxima década la labor de consolidación. Este camino pasará necesariamente por agotar márgenes de mejora en la calidad de la enseñanza-aprendizaje y por la construcción de estructuras institucionales, como departamentos o incluso facultades, directa y exclusivamente vinculados a los estudios de grado (y postgrado) en relaciones internacionales.

“…Such disciplinary handwringing is often seen as taking place against the seemingly perennial dilemma of how to interpret the grey area of IR’s independent status vis-à-vis Political Science (Reiter, 2015; Rosenberg, 2016). While, in parallel, a growing number of voices are advocating that IR be understood as a multi-, pluri- or inter-disciplinary object of study, around which all production of knowledge on the ‘international’ can coalesce (Aalto, 2015; Grenier, 2015; Jackson, 2017). In this way, questions about its relationships to other disciplines are commonly regarded as integral to IR’s disciplinary disposition.…”

Fragmenting and connecting? The diverging geometries and extents of IR’s interdisciplinary knowledge-relations

IR has long been concerned about its claim on disciplinary status. This includes concerns about its differentiation from Political Science and a divide between scholars who advocate a narrow disciplinary approach and others who conceive of IR as a pluri-disciplinary concept. Although these dilemmas revolve around its position vis-à-vis other disciplines, the vast majority of the recent disciplinary-sociology debates have focused on the extent of IR scholarship’s intradisciplinary fragmentation, along epistemological, topical, national, status and other lines. However, the sociology of science literature stresses that disciplines are the product of not only internal practice but also their knowledge relations to and differentiation from other disciplines. In short, intradisciplinary fragmentation cannot be considered as detached from a discipline’s relations to other disciplines – and, by extension, the differentiated knowledge relationships held by distinct intradisciplinary fragments to other disciplines. Taking this into account, this article uses bibliometric analysis of journals as a proxy for analysing the relationship between IR’s intradisciplinary make-up and its interdisciplinary relations to eight cognate disciplines between 2013 and 2017. Three distinct modes of bibliometric analysis are operationalised to map three different aspects of interdisciplinary knowledge practice: (inter)disciplinary debates (direct citation), multidisciplinary knowledge bases (bibliographic coupling) and interdisciplinary knowledge production (co-citation). On this basis, the article asks, one, whether and how differences in the interdisciplinary knowledge relations practised by IR scholarship correlate with intra-IR lines of fragmentation. And two, what are the implications for how IR’s socio-intellectual composition is understood and its disciplinary status evaluated?
