    • Liberalism is a school of thought within international relations theory which can be thought to revolve around three interrelated principles:
      • Rejection of power politics as the only possible outcome of international relations; it questions security/warfare principles of realism.
      • It accentuates mutual benefits and international cooperation.
      • It implements international organizations and nongovernmental actors for shaping state preferences and policy choices. Liberals believe that international institutions play a key role in cooperation among states.[1] With the correct international institutions, and increasing interdependence (including economic and cultural exchanges) states have the opportunity to reduce conflict. [2] Interdependence has three main components. States interact in various ways, through economic, financial, and cultural means; security tends to not be the primary goal in state-to-state interactions; and military forces are not typically used. Liberals also argue that international diplomacy can be a very effective way to get states to interact with each other honestly and support nonviolent solutions to problems. [3] With the proper institutions and diplomacy, Liberals believe that states can work together to maximize prosperity and minimize conflict. [4] Liberalism is one of the main schools of international relations theory. Liberalism comes from the Latin liber meaning "free", referred originally to the philosophy of freedom. [5] Its roots lie in the broader liberal thought originating in the Enlightenment. The central issues that it seeks to address are the problems of achieving lasting peace and cooperation in international relations, and the various methods that could contribute to their achievement.
