International Relations Council of Turkey (UİK-IRCT)
Abstract:
Students and practitioners of International Relations have always been wondering whether
the effects of anarchy can be mitigated, where anarchy stands for the absence of hierarchical
organization among states. In other words, is it possible for states to abandon their endemic
suspicions and anxieties, and start to trust each other? Sebastian Rosato, with his timely and
much needed work, concludes that this cannot be the case and those who foresee rosy scenarios
for the United States (US)-China rivalry are, to put it mildly, mistaken.
