Absolute gain positive sum gain (libs and neos) Neoliberalism is a subset of liberalism more generally even if it shares the empiricism and qualitativeness of neorealism, the assumptions it makes is much more in line with liberalism. English school key idea international society; the idea that interstate relation don"t just need to be about power politics and anarchy (very liberal) international society vs system because those within the int. Society can form common rules and agreedupon rules (int. law), work towards common interest, even including balance of power, not just about material politics (can be norm-governed), sovereign states acknowledge power and sovereignty of others. Main difference between english school and liberalism: not really one, but define concepts more clearly and methodology. Neorealism; the questions and issues that waltz posed about anarchy and war still drive most politics -- most people don"t self identify as neoreal (rather constructivism) but it still drives them.
