Can a constructivist approach explain state security behavior and the workings of the nation-state system better than its rivals? endobj In fact, the so-called constructivism in IR theory evolves and develops out of the polemics with the critical theory. Constructivism has been criticized on various grounds. The dilemma of what to problematize and what to take as given is inherent in all research, and by focusing on the complexities of the mutual constitution the constructivist approach encourages scholars to be open about what is lost by their particular choices and assumptions. . Indeed, norms, identity, and ideas are key factors in constructivist theory. 3D8zP5Lj/kZD/wA148Ef5w+S+JP+afm7h+Zn8lx/yMh/5rx4I/zh8l8Sf80/N3D8zP5Lj/kZD/zX /Rotate 0 HuTKtKKJI,t(4K%H4J#(H 04 December 2009. /CropBox [0.0 0.0 481.0 694.0] /Contents [42 0 R] A more ethical response is possible, he suggests, by critiquing the assumption that individuals have unitary ethnic identities that map cleanly onto unitary territorial nation-states.

Analysis of national interactions with each other, with international organizations, and with several subnational entities such as political parties, bureaucracies, and even interest groups. The self-evident friendliness of Britain toward the USA as compared to the apparent hostility of North Korea is not self-evident from a purely material perspective. Because it is based on how society changes and evolves, Constructivism is a good approach for shaping a states behavior as it does not prioritize material factors as they could disappear in a split second, so using a non-material approach could secure a stares behavior. /Subtype /Link W3gLC#u!MMMEvAmsFVNAGLwA,llsn+!B". Stephen Krasner (1999) argues from a realist perspective that individual rulers present as the national interest the policies they believe will ensure their survival as rulers. International Relations indicate the status afforded to the constructivist agenda (Price & Reus-Smidt 1998, p.263;Ruggie 1998, p.4;Zehfuss 2002, p.2), the diffuse appli-cations of constructivism, and conceptions of constructivism as engaging in debate with rationalism to different extents (Zehfuss 2002, p.2;Jackson & Sorenson 2010, (ampbell, 1996:23 ).

At the most general level, constructivism is an approach to social analysis based on the following basic assumptions: (a) human interaction is not shaped by material factors, but primarily by ideational ones; (b) the most significant ideational factors in this context are "intersubjective" beliefs as shared collective understanding; and (c) these

It is, therefore, wrong to associate a substantive interest in power exclusively with real-ism, because all the paradigms of international relations are interested in power, as either motivation, cause, or effect.

Wendt proposed a spectrum of international anarchies based on variation in the ideas that states have about themselves and others. It is a discursive process by means of which an actor (1) claims that a referent object is existentially threatened, (2) demands the right to take extraordinary countermeasures to deal with that the threat, and (3) convinces an audience that rule-breaking behavior to counter the threat is justified.

Without the positivisms faith in an independently existing reality of world politics, the postpositivist is attentive from the start to the ethical consequences of the concepts and assumptions that frame the research.

With enmity at one end and friendship at the other, and with indifference in the middle, the formal condition of anarchy is by itself not very informative about the behavior of the units.
