As opposed to strategic studies, security studies tends to focus on:
Ways to prevent war
How to employ effective tactics in war time
How military commanders influence combat effectiveness
The general conduct of war
A norm in international politics is best described as a:
A hard and fast rule that every state must follow
Unwritten rules that guide state behavior in certain circumstances
Laws that states will be punished for if they break
None of the above
An example of a cause of war at the state level of analysis is:
The country feels threatened by the expansion of its neighbor
The leader of the country wants personal glory and leave a legacy
Certain interest groups in the country want the military to invade its neighbor to gain more resources
The leader of the country misperceives the actions of its neighbor and orders an invasion
The principle that states have ultimate authority over what happens in their borders is known as:
Sovereignty
Compulsory jurisdiction
Responsibility to protect
Anarchy
One reason that cooperation on climate change is so difficult is:
Collective action problems
Disagreements over cost distribution
The complexity of the international systems means there is no opting out of climate change cooperation
All of the above
Realists argue that states:
Should be able to cooperate despite anarchy
Care about relative gains rather than absolute gains
Should be able to form stable alliances
Do not focus on the balance of power
If the United Stats and Vietnam entered into an alliance to combat the rise of China, this would be an example of:
External balancing
Internal balancing
Bandwagoning
Exercising hegemony
Unlike realists, liberals argue that:
Norms are unimportant in international politics
Anarchy is not a problem to worry about
Humans are naturally selfish
Regime type matters a lot, with democracies being more peaceful
