In order to develop such a framework, we review the wider literature on policy paradigms and adapt it to the field of foreign relations and diplomacy. Adaptation includes the explication of key concepts, such as identity, values, goals, means and principles. Importantly, we do not only explicate key concepts, but also, subsequently, outline methodological avenues for empirical research on foreign policy paradigms. In this fashion, the article offers a conceptual framework that analysts can apply in empirical studies of both national and transnational foreign policy paradigms, including the field of EU foreign policy.}, doi = {10.4467/25440845TP.22.008.16020}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/teoria-polityki/artykul/if-foreign-policy-paradigms-were-on-the-research-agenda} }
