“Anarchy Is What States Make of It: The Social Construction of Power
Politics”
Short Summary

Puzzle/motivation:
● The extent to which state action is influenced by “structure” (anarchy & the distribution of power)
vs. “process” (interaction & learning) + institutions.
● Build a bridge between neorealists & neoliberals, by developing a constructivist argument.
● Both traditions take the self-interested state as the starting point.
➔ Neorealists = anarchies are necessary “self-help” systems (both central authority +
collective security are absent).
➔ Liberals = anarchy does constitute states with self-interested identities exogenous to
practise.
● Modern/postmodern constructivists = how knowledgeable practices constitute subjects.

Core ideas/arguments:
● Argues against the neorealist claim that self-help is given by an anarchy structure exogenously to
process.
● Self-help + power politics do NOT follow logically/causally from anarchy.
● Today’s self-help world is due to process, NOT structure.


Anarchy & Power Politics
Anarchy: Conditions of possibility for causing war → human nature/domestic politics of predator
states.
➔ Self-interested conceptions of security are NOT constitutive property of anarchy.
➔ Self-help/competitive power politics may be produced casually by processes of interaction
between states in which anarchy plays a permissive role.

Political structures (Waltz) defined on 3 dimensions:
1. Ordering principles.
2. Principles of differentiation.
3. Distribution of capabilities.

States act differently toward enemies than they do towards friends (e.g., British missiles to the US vs.
Soviet missiles).

Actors acquire identities by participating in collective meanings.
➔ Identities: Relatively stable, role-specific understandings/expectations about self.
◆ Failure of roles makes defining situations/interests difficult = identity confusion.
◆ Institution: Relatively stable set or “structure” of identities/interests. Come to
confront individuals as more/less coercive social facts.
● Institutionalisation = process of internalising new identities/interests.

Standard continuum of security systems:
1. “Competitive” security system = states identify negatively with each other’s security, one’s
gain is another’s loss (“self-help” form of anarchy).
