Abstract

The article discusses the prevalence of conflict over norms in International Relations (IR) and the importance of understanding norms as contested and malleable. Two recent books, "International norm disputes" and "Contesting the world," contribute to the study of norm contestation, emphasizing its significance in norm dynamics. The books explore different aspects of norm contestation, such as its impact on norm legitimacy and the role of institutional settings in managing contestation. Both books agree on the widespread nature of norm contestation but differ in their focus, with "International norm disputes" emphasizing norm robustness and order preservation, while "Contesting the world" prioritizes understanding contestation as a precondition for norm legitimacy.
