Technology facilitates, accelerates, automates, and exercises capabilities that are greater than human abilities. And yet, within IR, the role of technology often remains under-studied. Building on insights from science and technology studies (STS), assemblage theory and new materialism, this volume asks how international politics are made possible, knowable, and durable by and through technology. The contributors provide empirically rich and pertinent accounts of a variety of technologies relevant to the discipline, including drones, algorithms, satellite imagery, border management databases, and blockchains.    Problematizing various technologically mediated issues, such as secrecy, violence, and questions of how authority and evidence become constituted in international contexts, this book will be of interest to scholars in IR, in particular those who work in the subfields of (critical) security studies, International Political Economy, and Global Governance.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aPolitics & government2bicssc  aagency  ainternational relations  atechnology1 aHoijtink, Marijn4oth1 aLeese, Matthias4edt1 aLeese, Matthias4oth40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/3725670zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication
