His theory stresses the human need for self-esteem, and shows how it influences political behavior at every level of social aggregation. Lebow develops ideal-type worlds associated with four motives: appetite, spirit, reason and fear, and demonstrates how each generates a different logic concerning cooperation, conflict and risk-taking. Expanding and documenting the utility of his theory in a series of historical case studies, ranging from classical Greece to the war in Iraq, he presents a novel explanation for the rise of the state and the causes of war, and offers a reformulation of prospect theory. This is a novel theory of politics by one of the world's leading scholars of international relations.International relationsPhilosophyConstructivism (Philosophy)International relationsPhilosophy.Constructivism (Philosophy)327.101Lebow Richard Ned308100UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910782689803321A cultural theory of international relations3790357UNINA01987nam 22004333 450 991015051840332120230807220217.00-7509-6670-X(CKB)3810000000069079(MiAaPQ)EBC4781416(MiAaPQ)EBC6807551(Au-PeEL)EBL6807551(Exl-AI)6807551(EXLCZ)99381000000006907920220207d2015 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Acid Bath Murders The Trials and Liquidations of John George HaighChicago :The History Press,2015.©2015.1 online resource (189 pages)0-7509-6181-3 This book delves into the life and crimes of John George Haigh, known as the 'Acid Bath Murderer.'
