What was the subtitle of Morgenthau's influential book "Politics Among Nations"?

  • The Struggle for Power and Peace

  • The Dynamics of International Relations

  • The Art of War and Peace

  • The Architecture of Global Power

Answer

"The Struggle for Power and Peace," Morgenthau's book's subtitle, encapsulates his central thesis: international politics is inherently conflictual due to the struggle for power among nations. States prioritize their national interests and seek to maximize their power in a competitive and anarchic international system. This relentless pursuit of power often leads to conflict, but it can also be managed and mitigated to achieve a semblance of peace.
