Speakers

Ian Hall is Professor at the Griffith University. His research and teaching interests include the history of international thought and Indian foreign policy. He has published a number of books and articles in these areas, and is currently working on an ARC-funded Discovery project on the evolution of Indian thinking about international relations since 1964. He is also a regular book reviewer for a number of journals and contributor of opinion pieces to various Australian and Indian media outlets. He currently sits on the editorial boards of Asian Politics and Policy and the Australian Journal of International Affairs. His publications includes: Radicals and Reactionaries in Twentieth Century International Thought (Palgrave, 2015), The Engagement of India: Strategies and Responses (Georgetown University Press, 2015), Interpreting Global Security (Routledge, 2014), Dilemmas of Decline: British Intellectuals and World Politics, 1945-1975 (University of California Press, 2012), British International Thinkers from Hobbes to Namier (Palgrave, 2009), and The International Thought of Martin Wight (Palgrave, 2006).

Yongjin Zhang is Professor of International Politics at the University of Bristol. His most recent publications include International Orders in the Early Modern World: Before the Rise of the West (Routledge, 2014, co-edited with Shogo Suzuki and Joe Quirk); Contesting International Society in East Asia (Cambridge, 2014, co-edited with Barry Buzan); and ‘The Idea of Order in Ancient Chinese Political Thought: A Wightian Exploration’, International Affairs, 90 (1) 2014: 167-183. Professor Zhang’s publications have also appeared in European Journal of International Relations, Review of International Studies, The China Journal and Journal of Contemporary China, among others. His principal research interest and publications cut across the disciplinary boundaries of International Relations theory and Chinese history, politics, economic transformation and international relations. His core research informs and is informed by the ‘English School’ tradition in International Relations theory, but the broad theoretical approach he adopts is more appropriately regarded as eclectic. He has also published in the area of the political economy of Chinese global businesses and that of East Asian regionalism and regional security in the Asia-Pacific. One of his current research projects is on International Relations in Ancient China: Ideas, Institutions and Law, an interdisciplinary enquiry drawing upon Chinese political philosophy, history of ideas, ancient history and theories of international relations.
