Summary / Abstract (Note)Post-colonial scholarship, with its origins in studies of the long-term literary and more generally cultural effects of nineteenth-century European imperialism, made a relatively late entry into International Relations (IR). By 2007, though, post-colonialism was considered sufficiently important to be covered in an introductory textbook on International Relations Theories (Grovogui, 2007), and in recent years post-colonial approaches have made themselves felt in a number of reformulations of the tasks and future of the discipline (for example Agathangelou and Ling, 2009; Chan, 2010; Nayak and Selbin, 2010; Shilliam, 2011). Self-reflexive studies of the history and sociology of IR as a knowledgeproducing academic practice, or what Henrik Breitenbauch brackets together as 'meta- IR', have a rather longer history but received a boost in the late 1990s with the appearance of some major contributions that continue to shape debates in the field (see Hoffmann, 1977 for the influential and much-cited argument that IR has been an 'American social science', and subsequently Schmidt, 1998; Wæver, 1998).
