Teori Hubungan Internasional
Vinsensio Dugis
Course Description
Theory, as suggested by Smith and Baylis, is a kind of simplifying device that allows those
who use it to decide which facts matter most or do not (Steve Smith & John Baylis, 2001.
Introduction, in; John Baylis & Steve Smith (eds.) The Globalization of World Politics, 2nd
edition, Oxford, p. 2). As such, theories of international relations (TIR) are devices that allow
us to make sense of international relations. This course is about these devices. It will survey
and discuss well established major TIR and other alternative ones developed in responding to
the well established TIR. Equally, as the dynamics of the field of international relations
continue to be marked by the influenced of accelerating globalization, the course also seeks to
explore the possible future development of new TIR. This is important because theories do
not simply explain or predict but theories also tell us what possibilities exist for human
action and intervention (Steve Smith, 1996. Positivism and beyond, in; Steve Smith, Ken
Booth & Marysia Zalewski (eds.) International Theory: Positivism and Beyond, Cambridge
University Press, p. 13).
