Continental philosophy and international relations are distinct fields, often separated by differences in methodology, language, and intellectual tradition. While mainstream international relations theory emphasizes rationalism, positivism, and state-centered analysis, continental philosophy offers alternative perspectives that focus on power, identity, ethics, language, subjectivity, and the formation of social realities. Bridging these fields creates opportunities for a better understanding of global politics by exploring how ideas, discourses, and historical conditions shape international institutions. Scholars can challenge established assumptions about sovereignty, security, diplomacy, and global justice. By fostering dialogue between continental philosophy and international relations, researchers can develop more nuanced approaches to understanding the complexities, uncertainties, and ethical dilemmas that characterize current global affairs.
