00:00 Introduction
01:28 Why is the realist school for international relations the best framework
for explaining how states behave?
03:40 How do you understand the criticism that Russia choosing to invade rather
than bomb Ukraine is a sign of an attempt to conquer rather than neutralise?
06:15 Why do you think the realist framework underplays dramatic
declarations of ideology by political leaders like this?
10:15 Can states be influenced by ideology? If so, is that
a falsification of your own realist thesis?
11:51 Do you think the realist framework should adjust to make
sense of these counterexamples?
13:41 Do you think the critique that the US focusing on China has caused
the world to go up in flames is credible?
15:50 Why do you think Israel has been sabotaging
a two-state solution with Palestine?
19:41 Is the realist framework good for describing or prescribing
how states should behave?
