Researchers interested in the field of International Relations as a subset of the social sciences are collectively known as internationalists. For the last few decades, this scientific community has brought forth a considerable range of original concepts, fueled by a rich array of ontological, epistemological, and methodological debates. In particular, the field of International Studies constitutes an arena that favors the development of concepts of alterity. In this article, the author demonstrates how an interdisciplinary approach would permit internationalists to select from the tools of each discipline and circulate ideas more fluently; the article proposes a structure of interdisciplinarity as a method for the integration that will allow researchers to interface between various disciplines in the field of international studies.

LAY SUMMARY Police officers are exposed to multiple risks that increase the prevalence of low back pain. Few interventions have been tailored to help with prevention of low back pain. This systematic literature review aimed to analyze interventions done with civilian or military police officers for this ongoing problem and to identify solutions to help alleviate low back pain in this population. Approaches in the literature regarding police officers and low back pain included an analysis of equipment in patrol vehicles, equipment worn by police officers, and individual factors, such as physical condition and mental state. Findings show multiple methods that can be used to further study low back pain among police officers and reduce its burden.
