International Relations Theory: on the Threshold of New “Great Debates”?

This article aims at analysis of the contemporary phase of development of international relations theory. Particularly, it examines discussions, on the one hand, between neo-realism, neo-liberalism and globalism and, on the other, – between these traditional IRT paradigms and post-positivism. The research agenda which will be a subject of debates between various International Relations schools in the foreseeable future is outlined.
