Cosmopolitan Global Politics

I met Patrick in the summer of 2008 in St Andrews at the opening conference of the Journal of International Political Theory, which he and Tony Lang organized: “Thinking (With)Out Borders: International Political Theory in the 21st Century.” The conference, as with succeeding ones, brought together many theorists engaged in making International Relations theory more sophisticated by bringing to it the traditions of Political Theory and Political Philosophy. I will always recall Patrick’s disposition at the conference: welcoming, sincere, critical, cosmopolitan-minded.
