The organization was funded by the \u0130hsan Do\u011framac\u0131 Peace Foundation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the Center\u2019s second workshop on this subject, in a series called the All Azimuth Workshops on Homegrown Theorizing. The name comes from the center\u2019s flagship journal, All Azimuth: A Journal of Foreign Policy and Peace, as the purpose of both the workshops and the journal is one and the\u00a0same: to encourage independent conceptualization in the periphery and ease the wider dissemination of such scholarly efforts. In doing so, we aim to contribute to the dialogue between the &#8220;center&#8221; and &#8220;the periphery,&#8221; and help transcend the conventional theoretical, methodological, geographical, academic and cultural barriers between the two.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The workshop started with a welcoming speech by the CFPPR\u2019s General Coordinator Prof. Ersel Ayd\u0131nl\u0131, and featured four panels, during which a select group of scholars from around the world discussed:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">a. the discipline&#8217;s organization and inner structuring with respect to conditions\/constraints related to original theory production in the periphery,<br \/>\nb. efforts to redefine mainstream\/core concepts with input from various regions\/countries around the world,<br \/>\nc. original theory building efforts from various regions\/countries around the world by relying on indigenous perspectives,<br \/>\nd. different strategies for the improvement of International Relations as a discipline.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Participant scholars concluded the workshop with a fruitful roundtable session that raised a number of questions addressing two main issues: how to widen International Relations theory to include global alternatives, and the strategies for the periphery to globalize International Relations theory.<\/p>\n<p><em>Speakers:<\/em><br \/>\nErsel Ayd\u0131nl\u0131, Bilkent University<br \/>\nGonca Biltekin, CFPPR<br \/>\nChing-Chang Chen, Ryukoku University<br \/>\nEy\u00fcp Ersoy,
