| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The English School famously established the existence of an International Society. The first generation of ES scholars (Bull 1995) demonstrated, as against rationalist approaches such as realism, that IS matters for world politics and identified its dominant institutions, with sovereignty often seen as the master institution. Institutional change was chiefly addressed first in ES work on the export of Westphalian sovereignty to the non-Western world (Bull and Watson 1984) and later in debates over the impact of the global diffusion of Western ‘World Society’s’ liberal norms (eg, human rights) on sovereignty-centric IS. Notably, Buzan (2004) and his collaborators argued that, while a ‘thin’ sovereignty-centric IS had been globalized, regions retained distinctive packages of institutions resistant to normative homogenization |
