2300-E17;Geopolitics, Democracy Promotion, or Cultural Identity?
How do we explain foreign and security policy? The analysis of states’ external behavior has a long tradition which goes back to the 1950s, when scholars such as James Rosenau and Richard Snyder started theorizing US foreign and security policy under the conditions of the Cold War. But at least since the debate between Kenneth N. Waltz and Colin Elman in the 1990s about whether realism is a theory of international politics or/and about foreign policy, Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA) has become a subfield of the IR discipline. FPA is a complex field, with a diverse range of different (realist, liberal, constructivist) theoretical perspectives (and various approaches within the traditions such as geopolitics, bureaucratic politics and societal group decision-making, or theories focusing on psychological or cultural factors driving and shaping a state’s external behavior). As Stephen Walt has stated in his famous 1998 article, we have “one world, many theories”. The seminar will provide an introduction to theoretically informed FPA as a method to analyze the foreign and security policies of different (Western liberal, authoritarian, revisionist) states in times of global power shifts. In the first part of the seminar, we reconstruct the history of FPA and a theoretical roadmap. In the second part, different theoretical traditions including various strands are introduced. In the third part, we deal with different topics of German, US and Russian foreign and security policy in order to discuss whether states either pursue goals of maximizing security or power (which is the realist core argument), or free markets, democracy promotion and human rights protection (which is the core argument of different liberal approaches), or collective identity formation (which is in line with constructivist and role theory ideas about state behavior as a result of identity, political culture, or norms), or sometimes a mixed agenda. As a major aim of the seminar, we discuss whether neoclassical realism, which offers a multi-level framework integrating systemic, domestic and cognitive factors, is a rather degenerative or progressive approach at the FPA theory market.
