Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the present study is to offer the reader an overview concerning the stage of the research in the fields of international relations, national security and military studies. The study focuses on comparing, out of an evolutionary perspective, the stages of development in which the national security and international relations fields are. One of the conclusions is that thou the security studies field developed nicely; in the field of international relations there still are issues that need handling. One of the main distinctions, and at the same time one of the issues is that while the research done in the field of security studies is generally practical and policy-oriented the research that is missing in Romania in the field of international relations is a more theoretical approach.
