摘要:
"The field of international relations arose from the desire to assist and guide policy-makers to create a better and more peaceful world. However, many of the current trends, post-positivism, constructivism, reflectivism and postmodernism share a conception of international theory that undercuts the possibility of offering significant guidance to policy-makers.".
"The Power of International Theory critically examines these approaches and offers a novel causal-conventional alternative that allows the reforging of a link between international relations theory and policy-making. While recognising the criticisms of earlier forms of positivism and behavioralism, the book defends holistic testing of empirical principles, methodological pluralism, criteria for choosing the best theory, a notion of 'causality' and a limited form of prediction, all of which are needed to guide policy-makers." "This book will be an invaluable text for advanced students and researchers in the fields of international relations theory and the philosophy of social science."--BOOK JACKET.
