About this ebook
The 7th edition of International Relations Theory by Mark V. Kauppi and Paul R. Viotti covers foundational, traditional, and contemporary frameworks in global politics. It structures these topics through core thematic sections that trace international relations (IR) from ancient political philosophy to modern critical lenses. [1, 2]
The book is organized into the following major topics and chapters:
Introduction & Theoretical Frameworks
  • Chapter 1: Thinking about IR Theory
    • Core concepts of epistemology, methodology, and ontology.
    • Definition of theory, explanation vs. prediction, and levels of analysis (individual, state, and system). [1, 2, 3]
Subsequent Parts and Chapters
  • Part I: Intellectual Roots (Chapters 2–4): Explores philosophical precursors from ancient Greek, Chinese, and Indian thought through Greco-Roman traditions to the rise of the modern state and thinkers like Machiavelli and Hobbes. [1, 2]
  • Part II: Major Theoretical Images (Chapters 5–8): Examines foundational frameworks including Realism (anarchy and power), Liberalism (interdependence and global governance), Economic Structuralism/Marxism, and the English School. [1, 2, 3]
  • Part III: Interpretive and Normative Perspectives (Chapters 9–13): Covers modern lenses such as Constructivism, Post-positivism and Critical Theory, Feminism, Green/Environmental Theory, and Normative Ethics (just war and global justice). [1, 2, 3]
