Document Summary
Cutting back social programs- working class fighting back. Neoliberal development policies- free market policies- lots of economic growth but polarization of rich and poor. Set of concepts or ideas people and academics use to understand the world or society. Hypothesize that seek fundamental structure or operation. Based on abstraction, drawing links between them. Failures in policy, after ww1 strongest economy in world, but isolated itself from the world. Idea that if countries just interacted with each other economically it would produce peace too. *realistic study of world politics, how it really works not how it should work. Get away from preferences on how it should work ideally. Dark scary world- inherent to human nature, no escape. Balance of power, between power, have different capacities. Too close to the fire, done by americans intellectuals, they didn t have the science it was an ideology, it was designed to support american primacy. Inside realist tradition: co-evils- power and politics.
