1. The document discusses the key differences between neorealism and neoliberal institutionalism, also known as liberal institutionalism.
2. Neorealism, as developed by Kenneth Waltz, focuses on international structure defined by anarchy and the distribution of power among states. States are concerned with relative gains and cooperate only when it is in their security interests.
3. Neoliberal institutionalism, developed by Robert Keohane and Joseph Nye, sees institutions as facilitating cooperation by coordinating policy responses, reinforcing reciprocity, and punishing defection. It emphasizes complex interdependence and transnational links between states and non-state actors.
1. International politics is the study of political relations and power struggles between nations. It examines topics like national interests, foreign policy, and conflict resolution.
2. International politics focuses on the struggle for power between states, while international relations takes a broader view of all interstate interactions and relationships.
3. The scope of international politics is expanding over time to include new issues like the environment, human rights, and globalization that increasingly involve relations between nations. It analyzes how states interact and pursue their interests on the world stage.

Betselot liberalism and Neo liberalism.pptYoomifTube
Liberalism, also known as pluralism, views international relations as involving not just states but also non-state actors like groups and organizations. It focuses on norms, economic interdependence, and international organizations. Liberals see both high politics issues like security and low politics issues like economics and social issues as important. They believe states are composed of various actors that influence foreign policy, and that cooperation is possible through international regimes that establish rules and norms. However, realists argue institutions are still subject to state power and interests in an anarchic system.

This document provides an overview of key concepts in international relations and foreign policy. It begins by defining international relations and discussing the evolution of the modern state system. It then identifies the main actors in international relations as states and non-state actors. The document outlines different levels of analysis, from the individual to the international system level. It also summarizes several major theories of international relations, including realism, liberalism, and Marxism/structuralism. The theories are compared in terms of their views on state interests, the sources of conflict, the role of international organizations, and human nature.
Liberalism, also called pluralism, focuses on transnational relations between various actors like people, groups and organizations from different countries. It emphasizes that states are not the only important actors and that issues like human rights, the environment and the economy are as important as security. Liberals argue that cooperation between states is possible through international regimes, norms and economic interdependence. They also believe that domestic politics influence foreign policy and that states are composed of various interest groups and individuals rather than being unitary actors.

Rise of liberalism by Prof. Mahreen tararUmar266202
Liberalism focuses on transnational relations between various actors like people, groups, and organizations from different countries. It emphasizes social interactions and sees a pluralistic system with many actors, not just states. Liberals argue that economic interdependence and international institutions can help promote cooperation and prevent conflict by creating shared interests among states. They believe the spread of democracy, free trade, and international cooperation through groups like the UN can help establish a peaceful world order based on mutual understanding and benefit.
Theories of International Relations-IntroductionKeshab Giri
The document provides an overview of international relations theories including realism, liberalism, and recent trends. It summarizes key concepts from classical and neo realism such as the assumptions of human nature and states operating under anarchy. Neo-liberal institutionalism and its focus on the conditions under which states can cooperate is discussed. Recent theories of international conflict and cooperation explained include bargaining theory of war, alliance theory, diversionary theory of war, democratic peace theory, hegemonic stability theory, and rational design theory. The document concludes with questions about which theories may help explain specific international events.

This presentation describes some of the major theories in international relations and their subsets including liberalism, realism, constructivism, and critical issues theories.
The document summarizes key concepts related to the international system, including:
1) It discusses different models of the international system including uni-polar, multi-polar, and power chaos. It also discusses the Kantian triangle of liberal beliefs about what creates world peace.
2) It analyzes international institutions like the WTO, IMF, World Bank and how they shape global economic and political relations. However, institutions are also subject to state influence and power dynamics.
3) It discusses the concept of crisis stability between states and how the threat of mutual assured destruction helped maintain stability between the U.S. and USSR during the Cold War. High crisis stability incentivizes peaceful solutions during conflicts.
The liberalism Rice up by Mahreen Tarar.pptUmar266202
Liberalism, also called pluralism, focuses on transnational relations between various actors across borders, not just state-state relations. It emphasizes values like individual rights, democracy, rule of law, and free market economics. Liberals believe economic interdependence and international institutions can help establish a peaceful world order by encouraging cooperation between states and reducing conflicts over security or economic issues. They see globalization as increasing complex interdependence between states and non-state actors through multiple channels of integration.

This document discusses the concept of security from different theoretical perspectives. It defines security as freedom from threats to core values like survival, autonomy, political status, and economic welfare. These can be military, political, economic, societal or environmental. Realism views security as a zero-sum game achieved at the expense of others in an anarchic system. Neoliberalism sees institutions as facilitating cooperation by providing information and making commitments credible. Collective economic security, according to Nye, involves deterring threats to economic welfare through interdependence between states.
Changing Worlds - A strategy for the Twenty-First CenturyZelda Gin
1) Vietnam has adopted a strategy of comprehensive security since the 1990s that emphasizes economic development over military force to ensure national security.
2) This strategy involves deepening Vietnam's integration into the global and regional economy through organizations like ASEAN, APEC, and WTO in order to attract investment and trade.
3) Maintaining good relations with both the U.S. and China is a key part of Vietnam's foreign policy to balance the influence of major powers and preserve its autonomy. Economic growth is seen as critical to improving Vietnam's position internationally.

International Relations is an important field that helps explain how nation-states interact globally. Two prominent IR theories, liberalism and realism, both recognize the existence of anarchy and the importance of states in the international system. While realism sees anarchy as a lack of central authority, the international system also allows for some cooperation through international organizations and principles like collective security. Studying IR helps provide understanding of global political and economic issues and possible solutions.
The document discusses several theories and approaches to international relations. It describes explanatory and constitutive theories, with explanatory theories taking a positivist approach to formulating hypotheses to explain phenomena based on assumptions, and constitutive theories adopting a social scientific method and broader scope. Realism and idealism/liberalism are described as traditional approaches, with realism focusing on state power and survival in an anarchic system and idealism advocating for collective security, democracy, and free trade.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

4. Assumptions of realism
(Acharya, 2014; Joseph, 2015;
Mearsheimer, 1994/5;
Peou, 2002)
4/18
• States are the main
(unitary) actors in
international relations.
• States are rational and
driven by self-interest;
core driver of state
behaviour is survival.
• International system is
anarchic (i.e. no
supranational authority
beyond the state).
• Focus on relative gains;
international relations is a
zero-sum game.
Competition and conflict
are enduring and
fundamental features in
international relations.
5. Realist view of cooperation
“Two factors inhibit cooperation:
relative-gains considerations, and
concern about cheating. …[States are]
motivated primarily by relative gains
concerns when considering
cooperation. While each state wants to
maximize its absolute gains, it is more
important to make sure that it does
better, or at least no worse, than the
other state in any agreement. … States
are often reluctant to enter into
cooperative agreements for fear that
the other side will cheat on the
agreement and gain a relative
advantage.”

11. Neoliberal institutionalism
Anarchic international system.
States are primary actors in international relations.
International institutions promote cooperation which
helps to overcome destabilising effects of anarchy.
‐ Focus on absolute gains and alignment of interests.
‐ Sharing information; reducing transaction costs; agreeing
on behavioural rules; offering channels to peacefully
manage and resolve conflicts.

14. Neoliberal institutionalism:
Critiques
• Regional multilateral institutions have been relatively
ineffective in reducing the negative effects arising from
international anarchy and realist power politics.
• More for economic/non-traditional security matters
than traditional security/military.
• Measurement of institutionalisation: commonality;
specificity; autonomy. (Keohane, 1989, p. 4)
