"Realism" Speaker: Richard Betts Date: September 24, 2007 Course number: U6800 Course title: Conceptual Foundations of International Politics School: School of International and Public Affairs
3:24 Three assumptions of Realism (Gilpin) : 1) conflict is inherent; 2) group id >> individual id..... group not social classes or individuals ; 3) the primary concern with security and therefore raw power as determining that desired security
Am glad i can learn better realism than I did in Law school. Very practical and helps one understand realism better. It brings about the question of who is the grand norm.
Mr Betts, thanks for tossing so much in my head, to ponder an reflect. Your lecture left me feeling inapt with so many more questions left in a mess. Least I feel more content, that all these paths are being and have been placed under alot of inspection, by such great speakers like you, sir. only if we were all informed this well before we act. ty cu an all the rest feel a bit more informed, if not i know now who to ask 8)
4:50 permissive (possible but not inevitable) vs efficient cause (what allows it to make it happen at that instance) anarchy == lack of a sovereign --not necessarily continuous violence ; Efficient causes -- 6:08 Waltz domestic factors matter and influence events...theory of ip vs theory of FP .......
8:12 NATO UN .....will only act if it suit other interests ; 9:45 vigilante actions vs Serbia .....10:05 anarchy within a state ; 10:25 R focus is war and peace
so am i wrong to relate, what was laid out, looks an reminds me of a billards table but bigger for mores at stake, with everyone being color blind, and all line up their sticks, taken aim, to hit un marked balls. some players taken their turn in sync, while some will sink in a extra shot for hopes to sink, another ball they hope is theirs?
19:25 - 20:15 Srebenica and 7K Bosnian Muslims murder; 20:25 the only law that matters is the law as interpreted by the strongest state in the System....; 21:35 Pwr >> law
