Suvremena kritika liberalne teorije međunarodnih odnosa: Država i paradigma međuovisnosti
The Contemporary Critique of the International Relations Liberal Theory: the State and the ‘Interdependence’ Paradigm

Summary/Abstract: In this article, the author analyzes the International Relations (IR) liberal theory and its ‘interdependence’ paradigm. The first part presents the liberal ‘interdependence’ paradigm by defining the state and power as the key elements of every political science analysis, including the IR theory. The second part overviews the academic critique of the IR liberalism, as a methodologically outdated and historically disputed theory. Finally, the third part focuses on the contemporary ‘interdependence’ paradigm as crucial for understanding the current international processes in the global society. The goal of this article is to present the reevaluation of the contemporary IR liberal theory in the ‘real world politics’, and indicate the possible directions of its ongoing theoretic development.
