Maoz views the evolution of international relations over the last two centuries as a set of interacting, cooperative, and conflicting networks of states. The networks that emerged are the result of national choice processes about forming or breaking ties with other states. States are constantly concerned with their security and survival in an anarchic world. Their security concerns stem from their external environment and their past conflicts. Because many of them cannot ensure their security by their own power, they need allies to balance against a hostile international environment. The alliance choices made by states define the structure of security cooperation networks and spill over into other cooperative networks, including trade and institutions. Maoz tests his theory by applying social networks analysis (SNA) methods to international relations. He offers a novel perspective on the study of international relations as a system of interrelated networks that co-evolve and interact with one another"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 International cooperation |xHistory |y19th century. 650 0 International cooperation |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 World politics |y19th century. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85148218 650 0 World politics |y20th century. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85148221 830 0 Structural analysis in the social sciences ; |v32. 902 yj |bs |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20110510 904 yj |ba |hm |cb |e20110510 914 (OCoLC)ocn651011995 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240508 |eprocessed |f651011995
