ABSTRACT:
A 14 page research paper that examines three theoretical perspective on international politics. Foreign policy decisions are enormously complex and also diverse in the issues and ramifications that they address. However, "No matter how ambitious an international relations research project may be,…every scholar approaches it from a particular point of view" (Kauppi and Viotti, 1999, p. 1). From the basic perspective of realism, Kauppi and Viotti (1999) detail how two opposing theoretical camps have diverged from this traditional orientation, pluralism and globalism. This examination of these three fundamental perspectives, first of all, discusses their basic features and then specifically focuses on pluralism as being the most utilitarian in its application to international politics. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
