ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on later Realist works, such as the structural Realism developed in Theory of International Politics and its followers. It discusses global integration under common institutions. Kenneth Waltz with Theory of International Politics (TIP) wanted to contribute a proper theory to the study of International Relations, which has become so prominent that the following will be widely known. There seems to be no consistent continuum along the lines of inequality with regards to polarity and war risk. Therefore, inequality in the system of bipolarity contributes to warfare again. Waltzian Neorealism aim was to show a way to avoid war avoid war by sketching a roadmap out of a purist realist paradigm. Power in Waltz is calculated in terms of capabilities. He here regards all aspects as important which are of material nature, such as geography, military endowment, economic strength, size of the population and so forth.
