The State, Conceptual Chaos, and the Future of International Relations Theory / / Richard W. Mansbach, Yale H. Ferguson.
The authors argue that the concept of the state cannot contribute to - may indeed be detrimental to - the development of international relations theory; they propose an alternative "humanistic" agenda for theory building.
