RESUMO

The main objective of this research is to analyze how consistent is the normative wing of the English School of International Relations (IR). In order to reach such an objective, firstly, there is a debate about the place occupied by normative political theory in IR literature. Secondly, three main themes of both modern and contemporary writings of international political theory are identified. The first of them refers to the dichotomy inside/outside, the second one regards the tension particularism/universalism, and the third raises the difference between international system and international society. Finally, the research tries to find the answers to these ethical and political dilemmas mainly within the contemporary writings of the English School, aiming at concluding whether the normative wing of such a theoretical approach is sufficiently robust and able to deal with the tension between order and justice in international relations.
