Centre For Geopolitics & Security In Realism Studies Description
Since the end of the Second World War, many political, military, and economic international organisations have emerged to manage international politics. At the same time, many policy makers, scholars, and commentators have argued that new ideas and norms define inter-state relations. Nationalism has given way to cosmopolitanism, security competition to economic competition, and struggle for power to the struggle for cooperation. According to this narrative, the twenty first century is very different from previous centuries.
However, international organisations have failed to manage international politics, while new ideas and norms have failed to define a new era of inter-state relations. In the contemporary world, individual states, nationalism, security competition, and power still matter. For this reason, CGSRS promotes the realist approach to understanding and explaining international affairs. We build on the work of academics such as Hans Morgenthau and policy makers such as Henry Kissinger who have effectively used realist insights to analyse and shape international politics. From classical realism to neoclassical realism, CGSRS represents the whole spectrum of realist though

Turkey witnessed a night of violence as a coup d’etat against the Turkish government was attempted by elements of the Turkish military. The speed and execution of the attempted coup showed good organisation and efficiency, however countercoup forces prevailed after dozens of people died in clashes. Fissures within the Turkish military have long been present, dividing the nationalists, secularists, Islamists and the Kurds (STRATFOR, 2016). While followers of the Gulen movement... are the most suspect, regardless of which faction is responsible for the coup, implications for the EU- Turkey relations could be serious. . . . .Read more at cgsrs.org #politics #internationalpolitics #security #turkey #eu #europe #military #kurdish #erdoğan #softpower #coup #nationalism #turkish

CGSRS pleased to announce that we are a coalition partner of the 2018 edition of Debating Security Plus, the sixth global online brainstorm organised by @FriendsofEurope Debating Security Plus (DS+) is a unique global online brainstorm that aims to yield concrete recommendations in the area of security and defence. Gathering several thousand participants from around the world, it is the only platform that permits a truly global whole-of-society consultation providing innovat...ive recommendations for some of the world’s most pressing security challenges. For the sixth time, the 2018 brainstorm will bring together senior international participants from the military, national governments, international organisations and agencies, along with voices from NGOs and civil society, business and industry, the media, think-tanks and academia. Their involvement in our security policy brainstorm will help bridge the gaps between experts and citizens, and their recommendations will aim to inform the implementation of the EU Global Strategy, as well as the policies of national governments and other international institutions as they shape their approaches to peace, security and defence. From 19 June, 09:00 CEST to 20 June 20:00 CEST, the international security community will debate ideas relating to six different themes where challenges and policy solutions will be discussed by VIP debaters. The discussions will be moderated by leading international think tanks and organisations that will steer discussions towards concrete recommendations

Moscow’s March 2014 annexation of Crimea has altered the geopolitical and strategic relationship between Russia and the United States. Since then, US-­Russian ties have reached a nadir following a series of bilateral missteps. Both parties should aim to de-­escalate the ongoing confrontation in Eastern Europe. Perhaps then, leaders in Washington and Moscow could stop reacting, and start engaging in productive dialogue. . . .
