Anyway, neorealism is dead and this administration appears hellbent on dragging its corpse around Troy behind a chariot.

Is this the videogame version of Mubi-esque film synopses? Like, "Marguerite Weiss's breathtaking work of demi-autobiographical ante-neorealism was received with ululation at the 75th Berlinale."
I don't want to be a philistine, but PLEASE tell me who the characters are and what they do.

These days I read a lot of videogame reviews for work reasons, and it's striking how many of them don't explain what the game *is*. What happens in it? What do you *do*?

"look mum, I'm on a big stage and paraphrase a random IR theory book on neorealism"
Hegseth: "As history teaches us, the only people who actually deserve peace and those who are willing to wage war to defend it. That's why pacifism is so naive and dangerous."

Mearsheimer's views on American politics have nothing to do with Russia and Ukraine. It's just that he knows more about his own country than about Ukraine, so he wouldn't dream of using the same simplistic logic to explain what's going on. It's an interesting case for the limitations of neorealism.
I never thought I would say this but… John Mearsheimer is right!

most of the actors in that are moving between harsh brutality, and a nostalgia for home. you get something like italian neorealism and americana; struggling between each other, as a result.

Enzo Sellerio.
Palermo.
1924 - 2012.
His black and white images are inspired by neorealism, that in those years prevailed in cinema and literature.

Heads up, noiristas. The Criterion Channel has programmed a “Noir and the Blacklist” series this month. Especially welcome is the inclusion of Jules Dassin's THIEVES’ HIGHWAY (1949), which decries working-class exploitation with a conviction more associated with Italian Neorealism than Hollywood.

A reminder that the Ken Waltz version of neorealism didn't claim to be a foreign policy theory, just that systemic forces would punish nations that failed to make policy rationally responding to systemic factors due to their domestic idiosyncracies (*)
My theory is that if you take an impulsive leader loosely tethered to reality, replace the policymaking process with sycophants and strivers who tell him how brilliant and popular he is, and cede every institutional check on his power, a bunch of ill-advised and inexplicable stuff will happen.
I feel like I’m on fraud watch as an international relations scholar because I honestly kinda don’t fucking know why this country does anything anymore. If you held a gun to my head and demanded to know why we’re at war with Iran or feuding with Canada or want Greenland, I’d say the Lord’s Prayer.
