N1  - Abstract: "The 'long nineteenth century' (1776-1914) was a period of political, economic, military and cultural revolutions that re-forged both domestic and international societies. Neither existing international histories nor International Relations texts sufficiently register the scale and impact of this 'global transformation', yet it is the consequences of these multiple revolutions that provide the material and ideational foundations of modern international relations"; Contents: Part I. The Global Transformation and IR : 1. The global transformation ; 2. IR and the nineteenth century -- Part II. The Making of Modern International Relations: 3. Shrinking the planet; 4. Ideologies of progress; 5. The transformation of political units; 6. Establishing a core-periphery international order; 7. Eroding the core-periphery international order; 8. The transformation of great powers, great power relations and war -- Part III. Implications: 9. From 'centered globalism' to 'decentred globalism'; 10. Rethinking international relations.
