"Testing Balance-of-Power Theory in World History". Hui, Victoria Tin-Bor Eckstein, Arthur Deudney, Daniel Brenner, William L. The book caused a resurgence of realism in the field of international relations. According to Charles Glaser, the book is the "defining work" in the neorealist international relations literature. John Mearsheimer describes it as among the three most influential realist works of international relations of the 20th century. It is the most assigned book in International Relations graduate training at U.S. It is arguably the most influential book in international relations, causing a fundamental discursive transformation and bringing the concept of anarchy to the forefront. Waltz also argues that bipolarity (the presence of two great powers) is more stable than multipolarity (the presence of three or more great powers). One of the major findings of the book is that states tend to balance against power, which leads to the persistent formation of balances of power. He argues that state pursue their security above other goals, which limits the potential for cooperation and creates security competition. Waltz argues that broad patterns of state behavior can be understood as a consequence of states pursuing incentives provided by the anarchic structure of the international system. According to Waltz, system-level processes of socialization and competition lead states to behave in similar ways (p. Waltz challenges reductionist approaches to international politics, arguing that they fail to account for similar behaviors across states (Ch. Taking into account the influence of neoclassical economic theory, Waltz argued that the fundamental "ordering principle" (p. 88) of the international political system is anarchy, which is defined by the presence of "functionally undifferentiated" (p. 97) individual state actors lacking "relations of super- and subordination" (p. 88) that are distinguished only by their varying capabilities. Theory of International Politics is a 1979 book on international relations theory by Kenneth Waltz that offers a realist structural theory, neorealism, to explain international relations.
