The Tragedy of Great Power Politics, written by John J. Mearsheimer, offers a realist perspective on international relations. Mearsheimer argues that the international system is inherently competitive and that great powers are driven by the pursuit of power and security. He explores the dynamics of great power politics, including the balance of power, alliances, and the potential for conflict. This book provides a provocative analysis of international relations and challenges conventional wisdom about the nature of power and security in the global arena.
