Writing our stories with care and hope
摘要
In The Self, and Other Stories: Being, Knowing, Writing, Laura J. Shepherd illuminates how the personal is political and international. Shepherd uses the reflexive essays in the book as possible examples of alternate ways of knowing, being and writing in academic scholarship. This essay, in conversation with Laura Shepherd’s The Self, and Other Stories, is an attempt to understand how to write about oneself and one’s research. In doing so, it also offers a blueprint of a more welcoming and caring version of International Relations.
