Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both realists and radicals argue that the structure of the international system, which is characterized by anarchy and the absence of a centralized authority, creates a condition that makes war likely. Realists believe that states are driven by self-interest and the need to maintain their security in the international system, while radicals see capitalism and imperialism as the root causes of war. Neither group assigns primary responsibility to ineffective multilateral institutions, state decision makers' misperceptions, domestic political systems, or the failures of UN interventions.
