Product Description: This book, first published in 1989, gives a critical account of formal international relations theory. That formal and mathematical methods can be applied to the study of international relations is often regarded with surprise, but the author demonstrates not only how these methods give insights into problems such as deterrence or arms races but also that the increase in the power of explanatory tools depends on the more rigourous development of theory along these lines...read more

In this book, Michael Nicholson outlines social scientific approaches to international relations and then describes the problems of rational decision-making in conflict situations. He shows how rationality is in many strategic situations hard to define and often leads to paradoxes such as the prisoners dilemma, and explores rational beliefs about the international system. He examines theories of arms races, alliances, and the international problems of ecology. Here he is critical of the classical school of international relations for a lack of rigor in dealing with the problems of evidence and belief. Finally, Michael Nicholson discusses the philosophy of science, policy, and ethics. This book is both an exposition and a defense of a social scientific approach to international relations. With its emphasis on social scientific approaches, theory building and testing--and above all its clarity and accessibility--it provides students with a key to understanding the complex field of conflict analysis.

This work is an account of how we do and should explain and understand the problems of international relations and in particular the over-riding problem of war. While the argument is set in the context of general philosophy of the social sciences, the discussion is in terms of examples taken from the discipline of international relations. The book argues for the need for a firmly empiricist approach to the social sciences if we are to alter social behaviour in a way which will reduce the incidence of war. Thus, Hartley argues that we must continue to develop sets of testable hypotheses and theories which can be confronted with evidence. The issues of whether we can test and what constitutes evidence are analyzed and an empiricist approach is justified against the older criticisms of Winch and the more recent attacks on such approaches by the postmodernists.
