  • The Typologies of Realism

    The Typologies of Realism

    Chinese Journal of International Politics, Vol. 1, 2006, 109–134 doi:10.1093/cjip/pol006 The Typologies of Realism Liu Feng* and Zhang Ruizhuang Much more than a single theory, realism is a school of thought containing numerous related branches. In recent years an outpour of debate and exchange within the realist tradition has captured the attention of scholars. Many scholars have attempted to create schemes classifying the different branches and threads of realist thought that have emerged, while others have introduced a wealth of new terminology. Unfortunately, as a result of these Downloaded from efforts, realist concepts have become obfuscated, resulting in much confusion, and ultimately erecting a barrier to intellectual progress in the field. The goal of this article is to help remove this barrier by clarifying the criteria for classifying different approaches to realist thought and presenting a more coherent classification scheme that will enhance the understanding of the http://cjip.oxfordjournals.org/ relationship between various strands of realist thought. The Debate Regarding the Classification of Types of Realism Since the 1980s, a number of new schools of thought, including by guest on May 28, 2014 constructivism, critical theory and post-modernism, have critiqued, and ultimately come to challenge, traditional schools of international relations theory such as realism and liberalism. Yet, as a result of sharp differences with respect to ontology, epistemology and methodology, exchange between these new schools and the more traditional mainstream schools have been quite limited. In stark contrast with this dearth of scholarly exchange across schools of thought, the intellectual debate and exchange of ideas within the realist school have flowered, giving birth to many new branches and sub-branches of realist thought.

In short, the real world remains a realist world.1 In 1948, Hans J. Morgenthau wrote his classic text, Politics Among Nations: The Struggle for Power and Peace, that was largely responsible for establishing realism as the prevailing theory in the field of International Relations (IR).2 In 1979, Kenneth N Waltz wrote an immensely influential book, Theory of International Politics, that resulted in a new structural version of realism - neorealism - becoming the dominant theory in IR.3 John J.

It is long overdue. After the end of the Cold War, the armed forces received little investment and any changes made were mostly minor. The main effort went into the replacing of conscripts with professional service personnel. Little new equipment was procured and structures and outlook remained wedded to Cold War philosophies. This all changed, how- ever, with the war against Georgia in 2008. It was the Russian failures seen in this conflict that began the current, well-financed modernization drive. This process is, though, not without its problems. ussia’s post-Cold War political leaders and senior tions seen in the World Wars and which were later envis- Rmilitary officers were well aware, ever since the aged as likely by both sides in the Cold War.

    Contemporary African and Black Diasporic Spaces in Europe

    Open Cultural Studies 2019; 3: 207-218 Research Article Anna Rastas*, Kaarina Nikunen Introduction: Contemporary African and Black Diasporic Spaces in Europe https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2019-0019 Received December 18, 2018; accepted January 7 2019 Abstract: This special issue explores spaces where identifications with the African diaspora become articulated, (re)negotiated and, as demonstrated by many articles in this issue, established as a field of the collective agency with transformative power in European societies. The African diaspora communities and cultures in Europe are constructed not only by individuals’ engagements in Africa and its global diaspora but also through the collective agency, aiming at promoting change in European societies shadowed by the normative whiteness, nationalist discourses and policies, human rights violations and overt racism. In this introduction, we discuss the empirical studies presented in this special issue as examples of academic, political and artistic spaces of African and black diasporic agency. Together, the articles make visible the diversity of African and black diasporic spaces in Europe. They also challenge methodological nationalism as well as essentialising discourses of race and ethnicity by acknowledging the global circulation of African and black diaspora cultures and the meanings of the transnational connections for diaspora communities. Keywords: African and black diaspora, diaspora spaces, Europe, collective agency, cultural production, anti-racism The theme of this special issue on contemporary African and black diasporic spaces in Europe approaches diaspora communities and cultures from various perspectives. Here, the notion of African and black diasporic spaces refers both to different forms of collective agency based on individuals’ identifications with Africaness and/or blackness and to sites and settings where this agency occurs.

  • A Field and Diverse Purposes: Science, Application and Critique in the American Field of International Relations

    A Field and Diverse Purposes: Science, Application and Critique in the American Field of International Relations

    A FIELD AND DIVERSE PURPOSES: SCIENCE, APPLICATION AND CRITIQUE IN THE AMERICAN FIELD OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS Félix Grenier Thesis submitted to The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctoral program in Political Science School of Political Studies Faculty of Social Sciences University of Ottawa © Félix Grenier, Ottawa, Canada, 2017 Abstract One of the most important aspects of the American field of International Relations (IR) is the deeply-rooted and broadly shared commitment to a “scientist” understanding of scholarly work. Scientism can be described as an indubitable belief in our ability to produce value-free and non-normative knowledge and in the power of such knowledge to resolve societal problems. Since the mid-20th century, this scientist commitment prevailed in the main approaches and standards guiding the practice of IR scholarship in the United States. One problem with the dominance of scientism is that it reproduces a restrictive view of American IR scholarship. More precisely, the dominance of scientism has not only limited the diversity of methodological and theoretical approaches but, this thesis argues, also restricted American IR scholars’ ability to further different understandings of the legitimate purposes of scholarly work. Following this idea, this thesis endeavors to challenge the dominance of scientism and legitimize alternative forms of scholarship in American IR. More precisely, this thesis advances that American IR scholars’ work is guided by three categories of objectives, that is, the production of scientific knowledge, the application of knowledge and the advancement of critical thinking. To clarify how these three objectives are concretely formulated, the thesis also specifies nine categories of epistemic approaches (e.g.

FLUID IDENTITIES: TOWARD A CRITICAL SECURITY OF WATER MONOGRAPH by Cameron Harrington Graduate Program in Political Science A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies The University of Western Ontario London, Ontario, Canada © Cameron Harrington 2013 Abstract Water wars are coming! Water is the defining security threat of the 21st century! The future belongs to the water-rich!

Yet the issue of water security is far more complex than as an inevitable source of future violent conflict.
