WORKING BOOK MANUSCRIPT Title The Weight of Words: Deliberation and Policymaking in the UN Security Council This project constructs and utilizes a practical theory of deliberation to examine how individuals identities and power dynamics shape policymaking in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). While IR scholars have used theories of rhetorical action and communicative action to analyze deliberation, I maintain that these theories are inadequate for examining political deliberations because they necessitate that deliberation is unrealistically formal and rationalistic. My project contributes to debates on democratic theory by confronting questions of power and identity in an international-deliberative context. Moreover, it contributes to conventional and feminist IR scholarship, as I critique conventional IR theories of communicative behavior for relying on ideal, and ultimately apolitical, theories to study deliberation.
