Realist Dialogue

While most would like to think that in the future there will be some sort of international system that could control all states and entities in a balance of peace, the Realists have come to accept that this is just not a possibility. One of the key tenets of Realism that I would have to agree with is the importance of international anarchy. Though today we now have the UN to hint at rules and regulations for the states; it is more important for a state to look out for itself. Especially regarding the extreme differing cultures, economic standings, and numerous other points, it would be impossible for all states to agree on international rules for every aspect of the political and economic system.
