Roundtable 7-13 on The Great Powers and the International System Systemic Theory in Empirical Perspective

It is difficult for me to imagine an international relations (IR) scholar not being interested enough in Bear Braumoeller’s The Great Powers and the International System to read this review symposium. I’ll warrant that I’m biased on the matter, having been nurtured on systemic IR theory as an undergraduate and graduate student, liking books that…

Roundtable 5-5 on Power and Willpower in the American Future: Why the United States is Not Destined to Decline

July 22, 2013December 24, 2020 By H-Diplo

Is the United States destined to decline in the twenty-first century? This is a seemingly simple question, but one that International Relations theorists seem destined to debate without resolution. How should we measure power? What are the most relevant economic and military indicators of national power? How should we weigh the various components of national…
