Summary / Abstract (Note) | The end of the Cold War saw a change in the structure of the international system from a bipolar world with the United States bloc on one side and the Soviet bloc on the other to a unipolar world with the United States as the sole superpower. Hardly any international relations theorists had predicted such a sudden end to the Cold War. Realists such as Kenneth Waltz (Jackson & Sørensen, 2007) continued to argue that from their theoretical standpoint of structural realism, a bipolar world was more desirable than a unipolar or a multipolar world in an anarchical international system. |
