This book presents a collective mediation on writing, methods, violences, and un/becomings in global politics. It combines narratives, fictional stories, academic discussions, passionate unwindings, imagined futures, and more. The editor's intention is to offer a theoretically creative work which engages extensively with the visual and affective to un-discipline knowledge and modes of expression. The book’s point of departure is a conventional academic conference and its peculiar academic concerns (which many readers will only be too familiar with), using this to open up to broader and deeper concerns about everyday-level decisions, realities, and perspectives that feed into and make global politics. It is a polyvocal text that collects traces of thinking, learning, conversing, embodying and ‘finding out’, in an attempt to make visible some of the avalanches of discarded knowing practices. In this sense, this book is a methods book as much as a political/theoretical text that demands we (better) understand or know the worlds we enter, inhabit, to make it quiver otherwise.

Given our everyday of global crises, anxious observers ask how thinking, writing and especially feeling might/could/should be other than what today’s disciplinary IR offers. By shifting our attention, this extraordinary book exposes what disciplining practices in academia make ‘small’ (invisible, unemotional, insignificant), connects the everyday of what is made small to the violent continuities of global politics, and offers a daring, disruptive and richly rewarding exploration of what is vastly at stake in (not) thinking IR otherwise. This uniquely collaborative project concludes by inviting us to imagine other futures and identifying strategies for doing so.
