Index of E H Carr Memorial Lecture Papers

This series of annual lectures delivered at Aberystwyth University was inaugurated to honour the contribution to the field of Edward Hallett Carr (1890-1982). Carr was the fourth Woodrow Wilson Professor in the Department of International Politics, and during his time as Wilson Professor (1936-47) he wrote - among others - his landmark book The Twenty Years' Crisis 1919-1939: an Introduction to International Relations (1939, 2nd ed. 1946).

The first Carr Memorial Lecture was delivered in 1984 by Professor William T.R. Fox, Bryce professor emeritus of the History of International Relations at Columbia University. Since then the Lecture has been delivered by a stellar list of distinguished scholars in the field of International Politics.
