Format:Taschenbuch
As some have noted, this is perhaps more about the politics of international theory than about theory of international politics. There is a near complete lack of engagament toward the end of the collection. Ashley preaches to the converted; Gilpin's response is petulant. At least Cox's piece presaged in a way the current rationalist - constructivist (reflectivist) debate...
I would add Theory of International Politics itself to the list of works that haven't stood so well. Waltz fans - and I admit I do not count myself among them - are better off with the original book, or better yet, Man the State and War.
Much more compelling critiques have been published in the years since this volume; this book suffers in comparison. As a statement of where IR scholarship was in the mid-eighties, though, it is probably without peer. 3 stars.
Format:Taschenbuch
No other book has had the influence upon the field of International Relations as Kenneth Waltz Theory of International Politics. The important chapters from that book are reprinted here, along with critiques of his work from various authors. Some of the criticisms have stood the test of time better than others. Keohane's own article is perhaps the most interesting. He argues for the importance of domestic-level variables in state behavior, claiming that even Waltz admits the structure does not account for everything in IR. Some of the other articles have not stood up so well, like those by Cox and Ruggies. Also interesting is Waltz response to his various critics, in which he skillfully dissects their arguments. A must read for any series student of International Politics

Classic Book for IR Scholars
5. Oktober 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
This book was essential in a number of graduate-level International Relations courses I took, as part of my course of study in 2003-2004. I earned my degree in National Security Affairs. This is a cornerstone book - as it delves into many essential concepts in international relations theory. If you really want to understand key root theories in IR, read this book. Keohane does a great job introducing other influential theorists, as well. Other highly recommended authors/scholars/writers on the subject include Walt, Waltz, Krasner, Nye, Morgenthau, and Gilpin. I also, personally recommend papers and books by G. John Ikenberry.

An in-depth study of the theory of neo-realism
19. Dezember 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
This book, which is a collaboration of many of the most prominent thinkers in IR theory, sets out the debate between proponents of Neo-Realism led by Kenneth Waltz, and its critics. It starts by setting out Waltz's reworking of classical realist thought and then proceeds through a number of arguments for and against his work and culminates in a review by Waltz. Most the chapters are drawn from other sources, such books and major political journals, however Waltz's rebuttal is new and adds a new defence against critics of neo-realism.
As other reviewers of this book have alluded to, this is a difficult book to read for those without an understanding or background in the theories of IR and should in no way be considered an elementary reading. However, for more senior students and academics, this book presents a wonderful review of the arguments.

Foundational analysis in an engaging format
3. Juli 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
This book is a compilation of articles written by six international relations theorists debating various aspects of Kenneth Waltz's neorealism. These authors, including two of neorealism's harshest critics, analyze the theory and Waltz responds with analysis reprinted from his prior work or written specifically for this book. I found this debate format to be effective and engaging. Many of the articles also provide valuable historical context essential to understanding neorealism's relevance in international relations theory. So, for example Robert Keohane explains neorealism's place in international relations theory by providing an historical account of realist approaches over the centuries while Robert Cox presents a very different explanation by providing a Marxist historical account. The thoughtful arguments from so many different respected academics combined with responses from the father of the theory, makes for a high quality discussion. Lastly, I only wrote a review because I thought it was a travesty that half the reviewers here are talking about how this is a boring read. Recognizing that political theory is usually more challenging than reading the funnies or waiting mindlessly for the Daily Show punchline, the writing quality here is generally high with unusual clarity on the key points that separate theorists. If you are looking to understand the fundamentals of current international relations theory and the debate that surrounds its future direction, this is a unique and invaluable book.
