Produktbeschreibung

International Relations and the First Great Debate provides an authoritative account of the controversy about the first great debate in the field of International Relations. Of all the self-images of International Relations, none is as pervasive and enduring as the notion that a great debate pitting idealists against realists took place in the 1940s. The story of the first great debate continues to structure the contemporary identity of the field. Recently, a group of revisionist historians has challenged the conventional wisdom that the field experienced a debate between interwar idealists and post-war realists. The book assembles the existing scholarship and provides a thorough analysis of the status of the first great debate in the history of International Relations. It will be of interest to students and scholars of the foundations of International Relations.
