Zusammenfassung Leseprobe Details

In the analysis of international relations, states are often described as single actors cooperating and/or bargaining with each other. However, a closer look at domestic forces reveals their impact on a country’s leadership to act on the international level in a certain way. In the following essay, I will explain what impact domestic winners and losers can have on making cooperation or conflict between states more likely. I will show that narrow interests of (prospective) winners or losers are hardly able to influence a country’s general interest for national security or economic progress, but can make themselves heard in particular policy fields. By structuring the discussion along the issue areas of war, globalization, and environment, I will explain the relevance of power structures as well as political systems for domestic winners and losers’ potential to influence international interactions.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)

This essay aims to analyze the influence of domestic winners and losers on international relations, specifically on states' cooperation and conflict. It argues that the narrow interests of these groups can impact a country's foreign policy decisions despite the broader national interest in security and economic progress.

  • The role of special interests in shaping state behavior
  • The influence of domestic power structures on international relations
  • The impact of political systems on the ability of winners and losers to influence foreign policy
  • The complexities of cooperation and conflict in specific issue areas like war, globalization, and the environment
  • The potential for both winners and losers to support or impede international cooperation.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)

  • Introduction: Introduces the concept of domestic winners and losers and their potential impact on international relations, emphasizing the need to analyze their influence beyond the traditional state actor model.
  • War: special interests versus the public: Explores the impact of domestic groups benefiting from war, such as specific industries or ethnic lobbies, who might influence states to become more belligerent despite potential public opposition and financial costs. The essay also examines the role of different political systems in mediating the influence of such groups.
  • Globalization: coexisting support and impediment of cooperation: Discusses the domestic winners and losers arising from trade liberalization and globalization, using the Ricardo-Viner and Stolper-Samuelson models. The essay analyzes the role of political systems in responding to the interests of these groups, highlighting the potential for both support and opposition to international cooperation in the area of globalization.
  • Environment: vague prospects of benefits versus distinct groups of losers: Explores the challenges of achieving international cooperation on environmental issues, where winners (benefiting from a cleaner environment and green technology) often face difficulties in advocating for their interests while losers (industries with environmentally harmful practices) have a more powerful voice.
