- W2529041030 abstract "Why is paradigm warfare necessary? Do groups of warring theories help scholars in promoting clarification and reconstruction, or do they balk at change because it implies amending, or even rejecting core tenets of IR theory? This article argues that classical realism currently runs the risk of degenerating into a regressive research program unless it can find new sources of explanatory power regarding state behaviour. One such source is found in the three-part combination of constructivism, strategic culture and identity studies, all of which have the potential to shed light on the complex world ofpreference formation, policy choice and actor behaviour, a world until now, that has rejected ideational-based theory. As this article demonstrates, such revision is perfectly feasible and more than a little surprising: culture is found to have much to say regarding strategy, while key tenets of Morgenthau reveal national identity as a driving force behind policy choice. Following such revelations, this article then explores how the burgeoning new area of constructivist-culturalist theory sheds new light on questions of national interest, state preference and policy formulation, illustrating that the tools of context, culture and constitutiveness operate with equal if not greater explanatory power to the traditional tools of materiality, structure and causality. Ultimately, culture needs to be added to the battle colours of constructivism in order to advance the cause of a realist-led theory of state behaviour that operates on both endogenous and exogenous levels of explanation. Cultural imperatives contain the power to inform both the identity of the collective self as well as determining its social and strategic preferences; identity represents the ability of the national community to form self reflective knowledge regarding unit preferences, knowledge that works both constitutively and causally in affecting the social nature ofpolicy construction. National identity is then revisited for its potential contribution to classical realism as a means of augmenting formerly state-based focii with concepts of the nation. It is time for identity studies and the whole panoply of constructivist-culturalist arguments to be set in revisionist opposition to the unchallenged supremacy of classical realism in order to continue the questing spirit ofparadigm wars so vital to the renewing spirit of IR." @default.
