DESCRIPTION:Title: Visual International Relations Project Workshop\n\nPrese
 nters: Dr. Patrick James (University of Southern California) \n\n\nThe VIRP
 ’s main goal is to build an expanding archive that consists of graphic repr
 esentations for theories based on a method and technique Dr. James develope
 d. The technique can be used to create visualizations for cause and effect 
 as conveyed in words for either a combination of items or an individual pub
 lication. The systemist method creates what resemble traditional ‘box and a
 rrow’ diagrams\, but with rules that emphasize rigor and reproducibility.\n
 \nThe overall purpose is to facilitate a productive debate as well as to en
 hance comprehension of the vast and rapidly expanding knowledge base of IR 
 in a way that is pragmatic – in line with a realization that visual rather 
 than strictly verbal communication is essential to progress after a century
  of research in the discipline. The lucid representation of complex ideas a
 cross sub-disciplines of international relations is intended to build bridg
 es between and among the various schools and methods in order to support in
 terdisciplinarity and constructive discussions. The VIRP’s activity thus ha
 s the potential to move the field forward in an innovative way and increase
  its real-world applicability.\n \n\nThe KU Trade War Lab (TWL) supports fu
 nded research\, offers student research training\, and enables campus outre
 ach on the political economy of trade and conflict. To view current project
