International relations is a broad and ever-expanding field,
covering all sorts of social practices that cross borders. This
discussion will provide an in-depth introduction to a number of
topics. To begin, though, it is important to lay out the major
analytical approaches that have come to define the discipline of
international relations. One of the earliest lessons within the
discipline was that the way one looks at things, the theoretical
lens one employs to analyse phenomena, determines much of what one
sees. The world is a complex place, and it is impossible to
understand and discuss it is in its totality -- any analysis
necessarily requires some sort of simplification and abstraction to
make sense of things. Theories are one way to do this, each
privileging certain things.
