According to John Mearsheimer, the concept of global justice does not exist in international relations. The global political order has never been governed by any standard of justice. Political realism means that way. The Great Powers dominate the world on the basis of their military might and technological superiority.
The reality of power is a puzzle to many. Stephen Walt explains that “the Great Powers act in terrible ways.” Political realism teaches that states will only cooperate with other states if there is some mutual advantage. Walt argues that when it comes to powerful states, “the idea that others must threaten them in the future makes them worry about their security and lead them to compete for power.
Mearsheimer, the most influential International Relations theorist today, argues that there is a security competition between states, which currently explains the situation in Eastern Europe, the South China Sea, and the Korean Peninsula. States are aggressive, just like the case of Russia, in order to maintain their position. The same is done by enhancing one’s power and diminishing that of their enemies.
Walt says that Putin, “bears accountability for this war, liberals have produced the opposite results by dismissing Putin’s protests.” In a 2016 talk at the University of Chicago, Mearsheimer, explains that the Ukraine war was a result of fundamental and precipitating causes. The primary cause, he alleges, appears to be the expansionist paradigm of NATO.
