Maoz views the evolution of international relations over the last
two centuries as a set of interacting, cooperative and conflicting
networks of states. The networks that emerged are the result of
national choice processes about forming or breaking ties with other
states. States are constantly concerned with their security and
survival in an anarchic world. Their security concerns stem from
their external environment and their past conflicts. Because many
of them cannot ensure their security by their own power, they need
allies to balance against a hostile international environment. The
alliance choices made by states define the structure of security
cooperation networks and spill over into other cooperative
networks, including trade and institutions. Maoz tests his theory
by applying social networks analysis (SNA) methods to international
relations. He offers a novel perspective as a system of
interrelated networks that co-evolve and interact with one another.
