NEOLIBERALISM and NEOREALISM Jos David Zuleta According to what we have read about Neorealism and Neoliberalism, we can

list some differences that they have: - Neoliberalists think that with international cooperation all parties involved can at some extent win, understanding cooperation as a form close to interdependence. In the other hand there are neorealists which think that there is only one party who can win, that is to say: In the international system they only strongly believe in a zero-zum game and they are not really intended in cooperation, in all the words sense, instead of just being capable of establishing alliances if needed temporally, in order to keep a sort of balance of power, that is; to form a coalition to prevent any rising power who could even challenge the status quo. -Noerealists care more about the security and neoliberalists care more about the international affairs and that is only achievable according to political economy. - Neoliberalists think that international institutions are important to ease cooperation, and neorealists believe that international institutions cant do that. Structural analyses "tell us a small number of big and important things - Neorealists consider that international cooperation depends on the power of the state and it is hard to achieve and maintain.
