This lecture is a good example of how Marxists (the lecturer is almost certainly a Marxist despite his denial) are utterly incapable of engaging with their own ideology from an objective, detached perspective and instead are compelled to proselytize their ideology. Their thinking is so mired in their own worldview and they are so committed to it being "the truth" that they seem incapable of imagining that it might be wrong or looking at the world from a different framework or perspective. This makes perfect sense when one considers that Marxism is as much a quasi-religion (be sure to make pilgrimage to St. Rosa's memorial in Berlin) as it is a political theory.

Cool story bro. Would have been even cooler if you engaged with it? Is there something you're critiquing in particular, rather than just saying "I disagree" with big words? It's one approach among many in IR, some of which I cover on this channel. There's value in understanding different points of view, whether you agree with them or not.

@@PatrickTheiner I have no problem with opposing (and even outright wrong in the case of Marxism) viewpoints (I specifically sought lectures discussing Marxist views of IR), but I strongly suspect you have more sympathy for Marxism than you might be willing to admit.

Warum heißt das neoliberal? Was hat das mit Neoliberalismus zu tun bzw. wie ist das gemeint? Würde behaupten, dass z.B. Thatcher und Reagan neoliberal waren, aber außenpolitische eher (Neo-)realistisch

Die IB-Theorie hat mit der oekonomischen Theorie erstmal nichts zu tun - "neoliberal" bezieht sich darauf, dass inner-gesellschaftliche Faktoren eine Rolle spielen. Ich weiss, es ist ein bisschen verwirrend, aber ich erklaere genau das bei 02:06, ganz am Anfang.

welche Ordnung wäre denn jetzt für den Realisten am sichersten?
@PatrickTheiner2 ай бұрын
Kommt drauf an. Sowohl Unipolaritaet als auch Bipolaritaet sind stabiler - und damit sicherer - als Multipolaritaet (letzteres moegen Realisten gar nicht). Ein unipolares System ist vermutlich am sichersten, weil der alleinige Hegemon von keiner anderen Macht bedroht werden kann, und damit jeder Konflikt erstickt wird. Aber das heisst natuerlich nicht, dass es nicht Konflikte zwischen anderen, nicht-hegemonialen Maechten geben kann. Und darueber hinaus ist es sehr unwahrscheinlich, dass ein Staat ueberhaupt zum globalen Hegemon werden kann. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn: die Unipolaritaet wuerden Realisten als am sichersten einschaetzten, aber weil das sehr unwahrscheinlich ist, wuerden sie vermutlich mit der Bipolaritaet zufrieden sein.

Quick comment - as far as I know, Italy uses MMM, not MMP
@PatrickTheiner2 ай бұрын
It's a bit of a mess, partially because Italy reformed its electoral system no fewer than four times in just 25 years. But I think it's most accurately described as parallel voting, which is a form of MMM - since the first third of seats are assigned using FPTP, and only then do PR seats come into play. But happy to be corrected, of course!

@PatrickTheiner What do you think about this? -> I think what needs to happen is for the UN to get every country to demilitarize (starting with the US, China, and Russia). Obviously the first thought that comes to everyones mind is "Impossible", a state would never give up it's security sovereignty. But every state in the world already has by recognizing the UN (which the USA was the main contributor of). Also it's the ONLY way I see to have the closest thing to world peace. We will never have zero conflicts, there will always be that group with guns doing their thing, but that's when we send the UN. This way militaries do not need Nuclear weapons, tanks, submarines, fighter jets, navy ships etc. Of course there is also the question of new technologies pertaining to the internet (satellites, computer malware, etc) but essentially, the ICJ would be given slightly more power allowing them to trial any person for war crimes (including the leaders) if they attack any group of people for ANY reason.

This video was so helpful and explains the critique of America as a white supremacy culture. I understand that the UN critical theorists subjected Western countries to its critique for one purpose only, to segway culture to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, which is aligned to socialism and communism, focused on collectivism. I always knew this is why American children were segregated into Affinity spaces and labeled as oppressors and the oppressed. Literally public schools are brainwashing children to be activists.

The most ridiculous tenet of Mearsheimer's Neorealism is #4: states are unitary, rational actors. Rather, elite factions regularly compromise the interests of their states for their own interests! Examples: Bush 2 & Neocons; Shareef in Pakistan; Maduro in Venezuela; Meles Zenawi in Ethiopia, who volunteered his democratic country of 120 million to be landlocked by a dictatorship of 5 million next door, crippling the larger state's economy to this day! Many European leaders caving to US demands on energy, trade, & alliances contrary to their own states' interests. Examples of this type in fact outweigh those of leaders who act in the interest of the state they lead, and far and few between indeed are leaders who act in the interest of the majority of their citizens. Such tenet is so obviously incorrect!

Apparently, my long-held position that there never was a "unipolar moment" is associated with Constructivist IR theorists from the 1990s. To me it is a rather simple, example-rich, obvious notion that there were valences of influence and obvious boundaries of reach of the US all throughout the "unipolar" period. That is why the US began easing its interventionist grip on Latin America starting in the 90s and doubling down on the mid-east, central asia, and expanding NATO in Europe. All 3 of these shifts were directed at Russia & China: to hem in the world island, all while steering China in a more capitalist direction. At no time since WW2 has the US ever been willing to directly compromise the territory of a nuclear state, except in Pakistan where the security apparatus was secretly in league with the US in contrast to the official stance of the govt. vis-a-vis drone strikes, etc. At every point in the "unipolar moment," where the herding operations into the neoliberal multilateral economic/trade groups were at their strongest, giant exceptions had to be carved out to accomodate the power realities of different collaborators, foes, or allies of the US. For example, China was given a free pass on its joint venture laws, currency manipulation, SOEs, industrial policy, etc., because the gains for financial elites in the rest of the developed world (Europe, Japan, S.Korea, etc.) would allow the US to gain maximum influence over their economic futures and developments, as the actor with the greatest scale in the OECD. Effectively, there has never been a unipolar moment and there are too many examples in support of this truth to enumerate.

Hey. So I don’t know if I am the only one but the video clips you play in your videos are not visible but blurred out (probably by youtube copyright). Could you just add links of those videos either in the footnotes or attach a hyperlink sticker when the video is playing. At first I spent a lot of time trying to find the same video by your description (and audio) because I could only hear the audio but not see the actual video and then I realized that when you finish the video it shows the youtube title for less than a second. However it would be way easier if there was a link reference to the video. Thanks!

@@PatrickTheiner oh there definitely is. I find that working with theoretical concepts is a fruitful way to engage with ancient history, but yeah it was kinda astounding that when it comes to the hotly debated nature of roman imperialism (or roman expansion) the realist view seems to be dominant interpretation. Even Theodor Mommsen at the beginning of the 20. century described it as “defensive imperialism”, which aligns with a realist interpretation in my opinion. As for contemporary proponents of a realist view on roman imperialism you can read Paul J. Burton if you’re interested.
