REALISM AND STRATEGIC THEORY
Realism (classical) Pessimism about human nature and international
system Anarchy Self-help Major concern: survival and security Accumulation of power Focus is on the state/nation – Why? (Hobbes)
Treaty of Westphalia (1648)

REALISM AND STRATEGIC THEORY

LIBERALISM AND INSTITUTIONS
Post-1945 International Relations:Rise of international institutions as
collective actorsCollective action problem
Rise of European integrationRise of Pluralism in the US
Pluralism focused on new actors (transnational corporations, non-governmental organizations) and new patterns of interaction (interdependence, integration).

A NEW LIBERALISM
Neoliberalism’s challenge to contemporary realism. They explain the durability of institutions despite
significant changes in context. Institutions exert a causal force on
international relations, shaping state preferences and locking them in to cooperative arrangements. Feedback loop
Democratic peace liberalism and neoliberalism are the dominant strands in liberal thinking today.

NEO-LIBERALISM
Neo-liberal institutionalism is rooted in the functional integration theoretical work of the 1950s and 60s and the complex interdependence and transnational studies literature of the 1970s and 80s. IR 2001 International Organisations in Europe
Neo-liberal institutionalists see institutions as the mediator and the means to achieve co-operation in the international system.
![Page 14: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
NEO-LIBERALISM
Neo-liberal institutionalists recognize that co-operation may be harder to achieve in areas where leaders perceive they have no mutual interests.
Neo-liberals believe that states co-operate to achieve absolute gains and the greatest obstacle to co-operation is ‘cheating’ or non-compliance by other states. This is were institutions come in.
![Page 15: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
THE NEO-NEO DEBATE
The neo-neo debate is not a debate between two polar opposite worldviews.
They share an epistemology (shared knowledge), focus on similar questions and they agree on a number of assumptions about international politics.
This is an intra-paradigm debate.
![Page 16: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
THE NEO-NEO DEBATE
Neo-liberal institutionalists and neo-realists study different worlds of international politics. Neo-realists focus on security and
military issues - the high politics issue area.
Neo-liberal institutionalists focus on political economy, environmental issues, and lately, human rights issues. These issues have been called the low politics issue agenda.
![Page 17: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THE NEO-NEO DEBATE Neo-realists explain that all states must be
concerned with the absolute and relative gains that result from international agreements and co-operative efforts.
Neo-liberal institutionalists are less concerned about relative gains and consider that all will benefit from absolute gains.
Neo-realists are more cautious about co-operation and remind us the world is still a competitive place where self-interest rules.
![Page 18: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
THE NEO-NEO DEBATE
Neo-liberal institutionalists believe that states and other actors can be persuaded to co-operate if they are convinced that all states will comply with rules and co-operation will result in absolute gains.
This debate does not discuss many important issues that challenge some of the core assumptions of each theory. For example, neo-realism cannot explain foreign
policy behavior that challenges the norm of national interest over human interests.
Neither theory addresses the impact of learning on the foreign policy behavior of states.

NEO-LIBERALISM: A RECAP
Five key points to remember about Neoliberalism States live with institutionalised cooperation States are one of many actors States are complex actors States are still rational actors States seek co-operation over conflict

SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIVISM
Key questions: Security for whom? Security for which values? Security from what threats? Security provided by whom? Security by what means?
![Page 22: A PPROACHES TO E UROPEAN S ECURITY PI5501 Lecture 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/5515d72855034638038b47f2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIVISM
Key elements: Securitisation as a speech-act (language theory)
Force of word “security” Security and threats: neither subjective nor objective
but rather intersubjective Widens the security agenda
Opposite to the rationalist, objectivist theories Focus on ideas, identities, perceptions, beliefs Securitisation: moderate constructivist approach Regional Security complexes
