About "Westminster's International Relations"
Hello all
In launching this blog we hope to provide an interactive forum that will complement our research and teaching. The Department of Politics at the University of Westminster hosts many events and this blog will help us publisise them and provide a forum through which we can discuss forthcoming and past seminars.
We will post regular update's on our staff's publications, media appearances and musings, and provide information on events within the University of Westminster and beyond.
We are happy to post submissions from staff and students at all levels and encourage anyone who is interested to submit comments, reviews and articles about international politics.
If you have an idea please let us know....

The Security and International Relations Programme
The Security and International Relations Programme (SIRP) was established in Spring 2010 to bring together, and provide an external focus for, the extensive research undertaken within the Department of Politics and International Relations in the area of security studies and International Relations.
Research within SIRP is divided into four main strands; Borders and Identities; Intervention and Statebuilding; Security Discourses and Just War; Security and Resilience. Current research projects include the China-India border dispute, energy security (with a particular emphasis on Russia, biopolitics and statebuilding, just war theory, EU immigration policy and the efficacy of the Responsibility to Protect.
In addition to our extensive academic publications SIRP members engage with policymakers and the media and host a wide range of conferences, workshops and seminars. Members have been invited to speak at a variety of conferences, think tanks and government offices including the UK Foreign Office, Chatham House, and the Asia Centre, Harvard University. Our staff have also been granted research funding by a number of external bodies including the ESRC, the British Academy, the EU and the Nuffield Foundation.
All staff are engaged in PhD supervision and are interested in applications from prospective students seeking to undertake PhDs in the broad area of security studies. We teach security-related modules at the MA level and currently run three MA programmes; International Relations; Security and International Relations; and International Relations and Global Change. Additionally, members teach a variety of undergraduate modules and we offer BA degrees in International Relations and International Relations and European Politics.
