Sonam Wangchuk,

I believe that realism is an abstract idea of pursuing the reality above the perceived elements, its talks about rigid institutions that fundamentally help in functioning the Socio-political spheres

Family for example in sociology cannot be seen as an item but rather we perceive the reality that it’s still there.

In political it also talks about the institution such as international-relations which cannot been seen with out innate vision but rather an intellectual capability to understand certain phenomena

Realism is when artists and philosophers want to describe things exactly as they are in real life. Some say in philosophy that reality takes place only during moments we perceive, reflect on or believe in—objects don’t change according to our viewpoint. Realists prefer to focus on regular settings and the small things many people tend to ignore. By following romanticism, it worked to reveal the truth about the world by being objective, observing detail and sticking to the facts.

Realism is the way of understanding how country behave in the world where it says that power is very important for them because having power helps them to take control over other countries, they only focus on self interest meaning they will protect their own country to gain power even it hurts other countries, and there is no concept of giving up over powers.

Its fosters scientific discoveries and represents realistic problems such as poverty and inequalities where individuals can find solution to solve it.

However, it faces challenges such as too much focus on negativity as it focuses on poverty,inequality and economic crisis. Further, it limits the creativity of a individual to imagine great things.

Realism is a understanding of how states behave in the world. It focuses on power, self interest and the concept that there is no central government who controls how the countries behave. The key concepts include 1) The state is the most important player instead of international organizations and individuals 2) The world is anarchic which doesnt mean that there are no rules but the fact that there is no global government to look after every country 3) The states focuses on having military and economic power inorder to survive and compete with other states

The types of realism are:1) classical realism- Every individual naturally wants power and that shapes how country behave 2) Neorealism

Criticisms include how realism excludes peace and cooperation and focuses only on war and conflicts.

Realism believes that because the world lacks a central government to govern states, nations must act on their own to protect themselves. It states that states matter most and work rationally to take control, shield their independence and guarantee survival. Because each state wants to make itself strong and influential, conflict and fights are thought to be part of international affairs. Realism looks to military strength, secure partnerships and the notion of balance as the main ways to handle threats in today’s world of mistrust and limited teamwork.
