Yanıt Açıklaması: Keohane asserts that hegemony can assist in the establishment of cooperation, but also that cooperation is possible without hegemony as long as regimes exist to guide the way to such cooperation.

Yanıt Açıklaması: The Cold War is the result of rising tensions between the U.S. and Russia/U.S.S.R. following World War II. The relationship between the two nations was borne out of their contact and the impact that their decisions had on each other, where each nation had to calculate their behavior in accordance with the other. The other examples are groups of states with common interests, and therefore bind themselves to a common set of rules in their relations with one another, forming a society of states.

Yanıt Açıklaması: In post-WWII Western European politics, liberals such as David Mitrany studied the nature of international collaboration and how it could be achieved through apolitical processes in his integration theory named “functionalism”. According to Mitrany, nonpolitical experts could better deal with their areas of technical expertise and initiate collaboration which in time would expand into other areas as well. The ever closer union of Western Europe increased the attention towards liberal integration theories and the question evolved this time around whether political integration could be achieved or not. Ernst Haas was the one putting forward the assumptions of "neofunctionalism". The most well-known liberal internationalist Wilson in the aftermath of the WWI argued for a system of collective security to maintain peace, based on rule of law, instead of the old balance of power mechanism. Robert Keohane listed three strands of classical liberal theory as (1) commercial liberalism about the pacific effects of trade, (2) democratic liberalism about pacific effects of republican governments, (3) regulatory liberalism about rules and institutions for relations between countries. Joseph Nye has added a fourth one (4) sociological liberalism about the effects of transnational ties on national attitudes and interests. The term interdependence (mutual dependence) entered the liberal terminology and was followed by the term transnationalism, which further supported liberalism’s pluralistic nature as regards international actors. The rise of the multinational corporations (MNCs) in world politics and their business transactions across the national boundaries of sovereign nation states increased the interest towards international political economy. The transgovernmental coalitions of the MNCs began to have steering role in economics and were closely related with politics as studied by Nye and Keohane.

Yanıt Açıklaması: The term “English School” was first coined by Roy Jones.He argued that a group of scholars, could be taken as forming a distinct school of international relations and this school could be named as “English School”. Hidemi Suganami agreed with Jones on the existence of a distinct school and called it as “British institutionalist approach”. Sheila Grader directly took the issue with Jones’ article and disagreed with him on the existence of a distinct English School. Peter Wilson replied to Grader and formidably argued for the existence of a distinct English School. Also Tim Dunne had no doubt about the existence and significance of the School.

Yanıt Açıklaması: The illicit market refers, in a generic sense, to economic activities that circumvent the institutional rules. To be more specific, what makes a market illicit can either be the illegal nature of goods and services themselves, or the illegal ways of their transaction. Thus, illicit market activities may include the illegal movement of commodities to evade tariffs, trade restrictions and sanctions, or the illegal movements of the banned materials, like drugs, human organs, endangered species, even protected intellectual property.

Yanıt Açıklaması: Keohane and Nye argue that regimes are regulations comprising of the rules, norms and procedures influencing behaviors and results. Hedley Bull, defines the regimes as rules and institutions that regulate behaviors of individuals and states. Krasner noted that regimes should not be seen as provisional regulations changing according to the change of power and interest in international relations. Keohane also pointed out that regimes should be differentiated from treaties in a certain subject. A treaty can be ad hoc in character but also would be narrow in terms of subject matter and parties. However, regimes are not always limited to a certain subject and not interim provision.

Yanıt Açıklaması: Kant (1724-1804), who is the best known representative of the cosmopolitan understanding, discusses ethics and reason in his studies, as well, and he takes on hand the concepts of peace and war as the basic phenomena of social structure. According to him, an individual has the freedom to choose right, ethic and moral, and his behaviors are not determined in advance.

Yanıt Açıklaması: In order to speak of the existence of a distinct English School, or any school within a particular discipline for that matter, the three conditions must be satisfied: 1) there must be some commonalities of the views in terms of the subject matter, concepts, principles and methods among the scholars/ members in concern, 2) conscious self-identification with the school by the members, and 3) recognition by the larger community of the discipline. The commonality of the view is required because if the scholars in concern do not have anything in common, then, we cannot speak of them as being part of a group, let alone a distinct school.
