The Balkan Bullet With Butterfly Wings, Dylan Kissane
The Balkan Bullet With Butterfly Wings, Dylan Kissane
Dylan Kissane
In physics, biology and meteorology, scientists have come to understand that the natural systems they study can be extremely sensitive to small events. The so-called ‘butterfly effect’ is testament to such seemingly insignificant events having significant implications for the wider system. Such knowledge has led to an interest in the natural sciences in both chaotic and complex systems and, in turn, has led to social scientists searching for parallels in the systems they examine. However, within the field of international relations theory, there has been little attempt to move towards such new understandings and away from a fundamental belief in …

Beyond Anarchy And Interdependence: New Thinking About An Old System, Dylan Kissane
Dylan Kissane
In describing the nature of the international system international relations contemporary theorists frequently divide themselves into two groups: neorealists and neoliberalists. The neorealists emphasise an anarchical structure, drawing implications from this anarchy to explain the order and disorder that greets the analyst of international affairs. Theirs is a system of conflicting interests and, oftentimes, conflicting actors. Conversely, neoliberalists favour an explanation that focuses on the interdependence of international actors. These theorists instead point to what they claim are more significant implications arising from international interactions between actors, both foreign and domestic. The two groups and their different conceptions of the …
