| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The article describes the crisis of modern international relations theory
(IRT) and assesses the prospects of political realism for developing a
nationally oriented theory in Russia. The authors believe that realism can
significantly contribute to the development of such a theory. However, the
developmental tasks facing Russia go beyond the scope of realism; Russia
must formulate a comprehensive idea of national development and IRT.
The national idea should not be confined to the country’s survival and
security; it should include the national understanding of freedom, values
and development resources. Realism is not the whole truth, and in some of
its manifestations it substitutes truth by power. |
