The School is renowned for its research in international relations, ranked 33rd globally. Our researchers produce cutting-edge publications in a wide range of established and emerging areas such as: geopolitics and great power rivalry; climate change and environmental politics; visual politics; the restructuring of the world economy; the politics of global development; humanitarianism; trends in warfare; the politics of Asia and the Pacific; terrorism and radicalisation; and the history of international thought. Though our research, we contribute regularly to policy and public debates in Australia, the region and beyond.
