The goal of the essay is to develop a definition of International Politics. The basic question is: What is International Politics?
You will answer this question based on the different theories developed in the texts we have discussed for the Introduction of the course:
Realism: Mearsheimer/Thucydides
Liberalism: Michael Doyle
Behaviorism: Keren Yarhi-Milo
Through the essay, you should highlight the similarities and differences in these approaches (compare them) and explain why they are all considered part of international politics. For that purpose, you will need to explain the core points of each theory as described in the texts.
Quotes are not allowed, and you cannot use other sources besides these texts. I will be very vigilant for AI-generated writing.
