Praxis investigates both the existing practices of international
politics and relations during and after the Cold War, and the issue
of whether problems of praxis (individual and collective choices)
can be subjected to a 'theoretical treatment'. The book comes in
two parts: the first deals with the constitution of international
relations and the role of theoretical norms in guiding decisions,
in areas such as sanctions, the punishment of international crimes,
governance and 'constitutional' concern, the second is devoted to
'theory building'. While a 'theorization' of praxis has often been
attempted, Kratochwil argues that such endeavours do not attend to
certain important elements characteristic of practical choices.
Praxis presents a shift from the accepted international relations
standard of theorizing, by arguing for the analysis of policy
decisions made in non-ideal conditions within a broader framework
of practical choices, emphasizing both historicity and contingency.
