'Oelsner and Koschut pose important questions about the nature of the international system and make a convincing case for why IR scholars should include international friendship in their analysis. They offer a solid theoretical foundation in the conceptual chapters, and their case is further strengthened by the empirical chapters that demonstrate the added value of studying international friendship. Their argument deserves serious consideration, which, ultimately, is also the friendly thing to give.' - Yuri van Hoef, University of Leeds, UK
