Idealism and Realism in International Relations

Regarding recent events in Ukraine, international relations (IR) are also talked about again. However, there are not many people who understand the meaning of the term "international relations". Unlike what we normally see on television programs, it is not just to dispatch delegates to visit different countries or negotiate contested consensus. International relations, also called "world politics", began after the First World War. The focus of this field of academic research, as its name implies, is that politics at the global level is the maintenance of peace as a unit, national and inter-state relations, and international systems.

In the field of international relations, there is a general theoretical or theoretical point of view. Realism, also called political realism, is an international political view emphasizing its competitiveness and conflict. It is in contrast to idealism and liberalism, which usually tend to emphasize cooperation. Realists believe that the protagonists of the international arena are states, care about their own safety, act for their own national interests, and fight for power. Realists stress that the negative aspects of power and self-interest are often skeptical about the relationship between ethics and state relations. Although national politics is the domain of authority and law, international politics is sometimes claimed to be an area without justice, but it is characterized by a positive or potential conflict between the nations.

Theoretical perception of realistic pessimism and liberal international idealism. Rationalists believe that the state is not just a global system but an international community. The state is part of the international community by accepting various principles and systems and managing the way to manage diplomatic relations. By doing so, the state has made a commitment to the idea that it is not appropriate to promote national interests without considering international law and ethics.

Hobbes (after Thomas) Hobbes), 2) Rationalists (or after Grotten, Hugo Grotius) 3) Revolutionists (or Kant, after Emanuel Kant). Roughly speaking, the UK school itself supports rationalist or Groatian traditions and is seeking an intermediate route (or through the media) between realistic "power politics" and revolutionary "utopianism" I will.
