Scientific realism and international relations / Colin Wright and Jonathan Joseph -- Reductionism, emergence and explanation in international relations theory/ David Leon -- The international as emergent : challenging old and new orthodoxies in international relations theory / Jonathan Joseph -- State theory in international relations : why realism matters / Marjo Koivisto -- Inside the American state : reconciling structural and interpretive analyses within a critical realist perspective / Douglas Porpora -- What is realism in international law and human rights? / Bill Bowring -- Is it real? The question of juridical, actual and causal responsibility in sovereign debt settlements / Tomohisa Hattori -- Critical realism and the analysis of democratisation : does philosophy of science matter? / Milja Kurki -- Exploring possible, likely and desirable global futures : beyond the closed vs open systems dichotomy / Heikki Patom�aki -- Critical realism, international relations theory and Marxism / Faruk Yalva�c -- World market, world state, world society : Marxian insights and scientific realist interrogations / Bob Jessop -- Realism. For real this time : scientific realism is not a compromise between positivism and interpretivism / Jorge Rivas.

Critical and scientific realism have emerged as important perspectives on international relations in recent years. The attraction of these approaches lies in the claim that they can transcend the positivism vs postpositivism divide and offer solid foundations for new developments in international relations theory. This is the first book that brings together authors working within this perspective. It provides both an accessible introduction and detailed elaboration of scientific realist ideas. In doing so, it aims to demonstrate the vitality of this approach and the difference that 'realism' makes.
