Power and Interdependence

Book •
Power and Interdependence, published in 1977, challenges the traditional realist perspective in international relations by emphasizing the role of interdependence.

Keohane and Nye argue that the complex interconnectedness of states through economic, social, and environmental ties creates situations where traditional power politics are less relevant.

They introduce the concept of transnational relations, highlighting the importance of non-state actors and the diffusion of power.

The book distinguishes between complex interdependence and traditional interdependence, noting that the former is characterized by multiple channels of interaction, absence of hierarchy among issues, and minor role of military force.

It has become a seminal work, influencing the study of international political economy and globalization by providing a framework for understanding the complexities of the modern world.
