Using the neo-classical realism paradigm to predict Russian foreign policy behaviour as a complement to using resources
2012. Bertil Nygren. International Politics 49 (4), 517-529
ArticleRead more about Using the neo-classical realism paradigm to predict Russian foreign policy behaviour as a complement to using resourcesThis essay presents the argument that analysts, crystal ball readers and general future-tellers generally should to a much higher extent rely on claimed interests of great powers than on resources alone in predictions of future behaviour of great powers. Analysts should analyse what states want to do given what they could do, as much as analyse what states could do based on their resources, or analysts should analyse state policy intentions as much as state policy resources.
