Produktbeschreibung
The origins of international conflict are often explained by security dilemmas, power-rivalries or profits for political or economic elites. Common to these approaches is the idea that human behavior is mostly governed by material interests which principally involves the quest for power or wealth. The authors question this truncated image of human rationality. Borrowing the concept of recognition from models developed in philosophy and sociology, this book provides a unique set of applications to the problems of international conflict, and argues that human actions are often not motivated by a pursuit of utility maximization as much as they are by a quest to gain recognition. This unique approach will be a welcome alternative to the traditional models of international conflict.
