May, Ernest R. / Rosecrance, Richard N. / Steiner, Zara S., ed. History and Neorealism. Edited by Ernest R. May, Richard Rosecrance, Zara Steiner. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2010, xii, 394pp., very good hardcover with printed covers. INSCRIBED to John with all the best, and SIGNED Dick (most likely, editor Richard Rosencrance). "Neorealists argue that all states aim to acquire power and that state cooperation can therefore only be temporary, based on a common opposition to a third country. This view condemns the world to endless conflict for the indefinite future. Based upon careful attention to actual historical outcomes, this book contends that while some countries and leaders have demonstrated excessive power drives, others have essentially underplayed their power and sought less position and influence than their comparative strength might have justified. Featuring case studies from across the globe, History and Neorealism examines how states have actually acted. The authors conclude that leadership, domestic politics, and the domain (of gain or loss) in which they reside play an important role along with international factors in raising the possibility of a world in which conflict does not remain constant and, though not eliminated, can be progressively reduced" (rear cover text). - CONTENTS: 1.
