Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description In this book, Michael Nicholson outlines social scientific approaches to international relations and then describes the problems of rational decisionmaking 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 testingand above all its clarity and accessibilityit provides students with a key to understanding the complex field of conflict analysis. Review 'The work explores, from a philosophical basis, the various aspects of rationality, as well as its inherent dilemmas, as applied to the study of the arms race as well as to that of alliances, in most cases ending up with persuasively common senselike suggestions the work is not overburdened with mathematical formulae, but for the most part written in a fluent style, appealing to the layman as well as the specialist.'

Book Description Problems of rational decisionmaking in conflict situations are highlighted in an examination of theories of arms races, alliances, and the international problems of ecology from a social scientific perspective.
