- Abstract
- David Lake wrote that International Relations (IR)(1) will be a more diverse and better field of study if we embrace varied life experiences and intuitions, especially those of marginalized scholars, about politics and how the world works. Although concurring with his admonition, I also believe that his call for "greater diversity" in IR and his approach to realizing it need to be subject to critical scrutiny, being reconsidered in terms of reflexivitymore specifically, self-reflection by "marginalized" scholars. For this reason, as a "non-white" scholar working in a "non-Western" (or, in Lake's words, "underrepresented") IR community, I want to make my own confession to better understand what is at stake in promoting diversity in the academy from a different angle.
