ABSTRACT
It is an unusual procedure to find the editors of a book debate the results of the volume – and even more the whole theoretical perspective – on such a fundamental level in such a contradicting way. But as we hope to show with our reply to the previous chapter by Matthew Evangelista and Judith Reppy, this is a fruitful debate, as it reveals not only different perspectives in the “liberal camp” on such fundamental issues as war and peace but offers, at least between the lines, a snapshot of different worldviews of the current state of international relations.
