In these essays, one of the most eminent political scientists of
our time examines international relations from a variety of
perspectives connected by timeless and common themes: the conflict
between die ever-present risk of violence and the quest for
international order, the tensions between the imperatives of power
and those of morality, the ties that bind domestic and foreign
policy, the ambiguities of the nuclear revolution, the break
between prenuclear and post-1945 politics, and the dangers created
by the competition between the nuclear superpowers. Assessing the
development of the discipline of international relations, the
author presents both a summary of the field's significant findings
and a critical discussion of its most representative traditions of
realism and liberalism. Written between 1960 and 1985, many of
these essays have not been previously published in English. They
reflect the author's own intellectual evolution and represent a
complete picture of his approach to the study of world politics.
