ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
No book can be written without the help of many people. This is particularly the case with this book. As it is an ambitious attempt, I have a long list of people to whom I owe thanks for their help and support. First, my sincere thanks must go to Alexander Wendt for his continuous support for and constructive feedback on my work on theoretical pluralism in IR. It was in April 2015 that he first gave me his very useful comments on my short paper on which this book is based. Since then, he has provided me with a series of thoughtful suggestions and feedback until recently. Furthermore, when I considered giving up on this project, he encouraged me to continue, placing confidence in my ideas and offering intellectual stimulation. Equally, I recognize the enthusiastic support of Timothy M. Shaw throughout the process. His trust in my intellectual potential goes well beyond what I deserve. In addition, I owe special thanks to Shaun Breslin, who has been supportive of my work since I first met him at Warwick in 2011. Without their support, help, and trust, this book would not have been possible. I am also very grateful to many other scholars for their insights, suggestions, support, and criticisms. Th
