It is important, therefore, to investigate the effects of war actions and peacetime on developing countries, and reveal the possible way ...

Mearsheimer believes, “Realism appears to have a bright future in the twenty-first century.

The only possible threat to realism is likely to come from inside academia, where it is frequently reviled. But any attempt to silence realism within the academy is likely to fail, simply because it is difficult to repress or ...
