Ask ChatGPT about the research

The last few decades witnessed the rise of new approaches or frameworks in the study of International relations. These new approaches are called post positivism. Most of these approaches share a common view regarding the positivist theories which dominated international relations and political science for more than sixty years. The new directions criticize the methodology and the epistemological and ontological assumptions of positivism. In this paper we try to evaluate the contribution of the positivist theories in international relations and the arguments of the new approaches, mainly Critical theory, post-modernism and social constructivism.

Critical review
دراسة نقدية: يقدم البحث دراسة شاملة ومفصلة عن إسهامات النظريات الوضعية في العلاقات الدولية والانتقادات التي وُجهت إليها. ومع ذلك، يمكن القول إن البحث يفتقر إلى تقديم حلول عملية أو بدائل واضحة للنظريات الوضعية التي ينتقدها. كما أن التركيز الكبير على النقد قد يجعل القارئ يشعر بأن البحث يميل إلى الجانب النقدي بشكل مفرط دون تقديم رؤية متوازنة. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، يمكن أن يكون هناك مزيد من التركيز على التطبيقات العملية للنظريات النقدية وكيف يمكن أن تسهم في تحسين فهمنا للعلاقات الدولية. على الرغم من ذلك، يظل البحث قيمة علمية مهمة تسهم في إثراء النقاش الأكاديمي حول هذا الموضوع.
Questions related to the research
  1. ما هي الفرضية الأساسية التي ينطلق منها البحث؟

    ينطلق البحث من فرضية أن النظريات الوضعية، على الرغم من الانتقادات الموجهة إليها، ما زالت تشكل الأساس لدراسة العلاقات الدولية وقدمت تراكمًا معرفيًا كبيرًا في هذا العلم.

  2. ما هي المنهجية التي اعتمدها البحث في دراسة النظريات الوضعية؟

The events, the developments and the international changes are based on the tracks that always deviate as the result of wills struggle between the forces and states. In the sense that the political crises that countries face means a set of interactio ns among the forces that have conflict which may reach to a confrontation. So we must be aware of the political and economic changes, according to the scientific methods to understand what threatens the interests of the states. Many of the sequential crises throughout history are resulted from the use of the power which is based on the object of the available resources. Therefore, the power is the practical exercise and the political investment abroad and that happens through diplomacy or war so that the state can determine its objectives, and decide what to choose among those of power tools. The forces and the states have seek to own the overall power in order to be the motivator of the political units within the framework of the international community. There are countries which benefit from the wars set in their agendas in advance to achieve the aims of their policy. War is still an essential tool for states, governments and groups to achieve their interests through direct conflict, or through the threat of sanctions, or through aids, including the so-called soft power, and sometimes through the form of international legitimacy, including the emergence of the term "fighting terrorism" and what accompanied it of global changes led to politically, militarily, economically and technologically submission to the powerful nations.
The last few decades have witnessed a substantial development in the study of International Relations. Many new theories and approaches have become part of the current debate within international relations. One of these new approaches is Construct ivism which many scholars believe constitutes a bridge between the positivist theories and the post-positivist theories. This study seeks to examine the basic assumptions of Constructivism and its contribution to the study of international relations
This research aims to analyze the criticism if ibn khaldun's thought in four fields: the speech of ibn kaldun, the distinction theory, ibn kaldun's approach and the state theory, in order to show the logical and illogical in them and to provide re sponse depending on contexts from ibn khaldun's heritage. The research shows that a large part of the criticism is unfair and biased as critics depended on trends un the 14th century that did not understand terminology. Criticism should take into consideration that it was written seven centuries ago and that Ibn Khaldon's writing are a witness to Arab and Islamic scientific achievements, among them the discovery of Sociology as a hew science.
The existence of the Arabs in Africa extends deeply in history. In fact, there are many theorems to trace when Arabs arrived at Africa. These theorems vary depending on the way we want to define who Arabs are. In addition, the humanitarians' dimensio ns in international relations are in themselves rather vague because such interpretation is not agreed upon in both western and international law especially in relation to Arab and African situations. There is no doubt that international relations, especially neighbourhood relations, are not as they are supposed to be. In fact, these relations are completely oriented by maintaining interest, ignoring morals, which results in replacing intimacy with resentment. It is true that Westerns succeeded in contaminating Arab-African relations to extent of hostility. The can be attributed to the cooperation between Arabs and Africans is completely controlled by the political moods rather than on true mutual interest. This fluctuating mood has led to the absence of common vision to face challenges. Therefore the necessity demands taking practical action not merely wishes and words to create a new regional cooperation for the human good. This cooperation should result in developing bordering cities economically, culturally, and at humanitarian level. There is also a need to boost up financial aids to be as or exceed the western financial aids, which make people less dependent on Western and rebuild historical relations and revive ties of kinship between regional countries. All this in the context of a humanitarian status-strong neighbor and good neighborliness. ...
The research aims to solve one of the most complex issues of sociology of development and social change, not to mention the dismantling of one of the most important issues of sociology and sociology of culture. The issue of capitalist globalization and its historical stages of development, as well as the question of whether, especially at its new stage of development, it is a global system or global anarchy? Capitalism, by its structural logic, is not an antistatic system; it is a dynamic system open to shifting and shifting historical horizons. They have been deported at various stages, to a large extent, at the level of form or appearance, although they remain captive to content and one structural logic. As such, in the light of the recent results of the research, we have called for serious action to build a truly new world order based on the rules of pluralism, justice and democracy, as another system replacing the world order based on unilateralism, hegemony and dictatorship.
