Why does the academic study of international relations have limited
impact on the policy community? When research results are
inconsistent, inconclusive, and contradictory, a lack of scholarly
consensus discourages policy makers, the business community, and
other citizens from trusting findings and conclusions from IR
research. In New Directions for International Relations, Alex Mintz
and Bruce Russett identify differences in methods of analysis as
one cause of these problematic results. They discuss the problem
and set the stage for nine chapters by diverse scholars to
demonstrate innovative new developments in IR theory and creative
new methods that can lay the basis for greater consensus. Looking
at areas of concern such as the relationship between lawmaking and
the use of military force, the challenge of suppressing extremists
without losing moderates, and the public health effects of civil
conflict, contributors show how international relations research
can generate reliable results that can be, and in fact are, used in
the real world.
