Proponents of neoclassical realism claim it is the logical extension of the Kenneth Waltz's structural realism into the realm of foreign policy. In this book, Norrin M. Ripsman, Jeffrey W. Taliaferro, and Steven E. Lobell argue that neoclassical realism is far more than an extension of Waltz's structural realism or an effort to update the classical realism of Hans Morgenthau, E. H. Carr, and Henry Kissinger with the language of modern social science. ER -
