Of all the self-images of International Relations, none is as pervasive and enduring as the notion that a great debate pitting idealists against realists took place in the 1940s. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story of the first great debate continues to structure the contemporary identity of International Relations, yet in recent years revisionist historians have challenged the conventional wisdom that the field experienced such a debate. Drawing on expert contributors working in Canada, Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States, this book includes key participants in the historiographical controversy. The book assembles the existing scholarship and provides a thorough analysis of the status of the first great debate in the history of International Relations. It is an invaluable examination of the causes and future direction of idealist and realist arguments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eInternational Relations and the First Great Debate\u003c\/em\u003e will be of interest to students and scholars concerned with the foundations of International Relations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Schmidt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415668956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415668958\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.41d","brand":"Brian Schmidt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136109293823,"sku":"9780415668958","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_60acb30e-5a60-4cdf-a34f-fe192a67765c.jpg?v=1770160570","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/international-relations-and-the-first-brian-schmidt-9780415668958","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
