English School Of International Relations Theory
The English School of international relations theory (sometimes also referred to as liberal realism, the International Society school or the British institutionalists) maintains that there is a 'society of states' at the international level, despite the condition of anarchy (that is, the lack of a global ruler or world state). The English school stands for the conviction that ideas, rather than simply material capabilities, shape the conduct of international politics, and therefore deserve analysis and critique. In this sense it is similar to constructivism, though the English School has its roots more in world history, international law and political theory, and is more open to normative approaches than is generally the case with constructivism. Overview International system, international society, world society English School scholars distinguish between ''international system'' and ''international society''. The former is a quasi-physical realm, as proximate actors interact wit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
