O homem, o estado e a guerra

This book emphasizes the international system's influence over state behavior. I'm curious how this perspective differs from more individual or domestic-focused theories.

Waltz's ideas about stability and power dynamics seem timeless, but I wonder how well they hold up in today's multipolar world.

Understanding the foundational assumptions behind his analysis makes me appreciate the framework more. Was this a response to prior theories or a new way of looking at global politics?
