Johnston believed that both the liberal tradition of political thought and the realist tradition of international thought had contributed much to humanity?s store of political wisdom, but that each had limitations that could most easily be recognized by its encounter with the other. His method of accomplishing this task was to examine the liberal conception of political life in general and international political life in particular and then to explore the realist critique of the liberal view, particularly as it was expressed by three great twentieth-century realist thinkers, all of whom were, in their various ways, skeptical of liberal assumptions: Reinhold Niebuhr, Hans Morgenthau, and E. H. Carr. In doing so, Johnston reveals the power of the realist outlook, but also the areas in which it remains insufficient, and insufficient particularly where it underestimates the complexity and prudence that liberalism is capable of displaying. There have been studies of both liberalism and realism, but no other work has put them into conversation with each other in the way that this book does. 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aInternational organization 606 $aPolitical philosophy 606 $aModern philosophy 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aInternational Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912010 606 $aPolitical Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E37000 606 $aModern Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E19000 606 $aGlobalization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912030 606 $aForeign Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912040 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aInternational organization. 615 0$aPolitical philosophy. 615 0$aModern philosophy. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 14$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aInternational Organization. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aModern Philosophy. 615 24$aGlobalization. 615 24$aForeign Policy. 676 $a327.1 700 $aJohnston$b Whittle$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059350 702 $aClinton$b David$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSims$b Stephen$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255320203321 996 $aRealism and the Liberal Tradition$92505437 997 $aUNINA
