Which of the following is NOT among the criticism that functionalist approach has received?
It assumes that war is the result of economic and social backwardness. |
It holds the separability assumption - the assumption that we can separate political issues from nonpolitical issues. |
They have adopted the pluralistic, eclectic approach of pragmatism to solving problems at any level of social life. |
It may be argued that the functionalist approach is biased against the state. |
Functionalists may have disregarded the role of power in international life. |
Even if we may be able to both separate political from nonpolitical issues and give priority to the latter, this does not mean, however, that we can solve political problems in this way- that we can achieve world order through a functional cooperation among states. This is, in fact, where scholars criticize functionalists’ means to sustain and promote world order. Functionalists have advocated that the functional approach is pragmatic; however, one may argue that by believing in a single formula, that cooperation in economic and social issues will lead to world peace, functionalists have not adopted the pluralistic, eclectic approach of pragmatism to solving problems at any level of social life.

- Intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) under the total control of the leading member states
- Semi-autonomous IGOs
- Autonomous IGOs
- Geographical Organization
- Universal Organization
Which of the above are the categories of intergovermental organizations (IGOs) according to the typology which is based on member states’ influence in the organization?
II and III |
II, III and IV |
I, II and III |
III, IV and V |
II, III, IV and V |
Intergovernmental organizations are divided into three categories:
- IGOs under the total control of the leading member states
- Semi-autonomous IGOs
- Autonomous IGOs
This typology is based on member states’ influence in the organization. The first type of IGOs reflects the classical realist approach that IGOs only act on the basis of the will of their member states. Semi-autonomous IGOs, on the other hand, are organizations that can cooperate with states to achieve collective goals through mediating or arbitrating disputes, providing forums, and helping toward finding a peaceful solution to conflicts. On the other hand, autonomous organizations enjoy a freedom of maneuver in pursuing their own policies. As is also understood from the information given, the correct answer is C. “IGOs under the total control of the leading member states”, “Semi-autonomous IGOs” and “Autonomous IGOs” are the categories of intergovermental organizations (IGOs) according to the typology which is based on member states’ influence in the organization.
Another typology of organizations based on the membership criterion is related to the geographical representation. Regional organization and is a category of this group. If the members of an organization belong to a specific geographical region, this kind of organization is classified as a regional organization. The most notable examples of regional organizations are the European Union (EU), the African Union (AU) and the Organization of American States (OAS). If its membership is not confined to a particular region and open to all states, this kind of organization is classified as a universal organization such as the UN. Nevertheless, this typology is contested. For one thing, the scope of a regional organization is not always clear; for another, its membership may be defined on the basis of a common economic, social, cultural, and political background.

I.The Congress convened in November 1814 in Vienna.
II.The decision-making process was carried out by the four major powers, namely England, Russia, Prussia, and France.
III.Throughout the Congress of Vienna, these powers singlehandedly drew the new European map.
IV. The fact that Napoleon came to power in France again for a short period of time hindered the functioning of the Congress.
Which statement(s) about the Congress of Vienna is /are correct?
I, II and III |
II and IV |
III and IV |
II and III |
I, II, III and IV |
The correct answer is D.All the European states that had taken part in the Napoleonic Wars replied positively to the invitation. The Congress convened in November 1814 in Vienna. Nevertheless, the decision-making process was carried out by the four major powers that were the signatories of the Treaty of Chaumont. They were namely England, Russia, Prussia, and Austria. Throughout the Congress of Vienna, these powers singlehandedly drew the new European map, dissolved Napoleonic states, restored the old monarchies that Napoleon dismissed and made extensive border changes through annexations (Mowat, 1922: 7-8). A brief period in which Napoleon came to power in France once again caused some nuisance. However, this short reign did not upset the functioning of the Congress, and the decisive defeat of Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo sealed his fate.

Which type of international regime is evaluated as a different from other types of international regimes?
International environmental regime |
International human rights regime |
International trade regime |
International security regime |
International migration regimes |
International regimes are mostly seen in issue areas related to the environment, trade, human rights, arms control, and international security. International security regimes differ from other types of international regimes for four reasons:
- First, security issues have a higher degree of competitiveness between states than other issues. Conflicts and wars are inherently a zero-sum game.
- Second, the costs of benefits and errors are much higher in the security realm. States are almost impossible to get a second chance to fix their false policy choices. If states delay their responses, results may also be devastating.
- Third, since it is difficult to separate defensive and offensive motives in security policy choices, both status-quo and nonstatus quo states may engage in a similar behavior to change or maintain the balance of power.
- Finally, international actors are forced to behave under a high degree of uncertainty to detect and interpret the behavior of other actors in the security arena (Jervis, 1983).

Which of the following is true about the emergence of IOs?
The roots of IOs can be traced back to the emergence of the modern international system after the end of World War II (1945). |
Because the early international system had been mainly dominated by the Asia-Pacific kingdoms, first IOs emerged in the 17th century in India. |
The role and place of the state in the system did not change as a result of the development of communication systems. |
The exclusion of different types of actors made international system more secure and safe. |
The Congress of Vienna (1815) created a more convenient atmosphere for the development of IOs |
The roots of IOs can be traced back to the emergence of the modern international system after the Peace of Westphalia in 1648. Because the early international system had been mainly dominated by European nation states, first IOs emerged in the 19th century in Europe. The Congress of Vienna (1815) created a more convenient atmosphere for the development of IOs. The role and place of the state in the system also changed as a result of the development of communication systems. Therefore, it became necessary to define the changing nature of the international system and the role of power and states in international affairs. With the involvement of the different types of actors, the international system has become more complicated and interdependent.

Which of the following is related to the scheme "all against one"?
Collective security |
Bipolarization |
Internal balancing |
Equilibrium of power |
The balance of power |
Objective requirements refer to the specific security environment that the theory of collective security envisages. According to the collective security scheme, an attack in the system against any state will trigger the combined resistance of all other states. It is, in other words, a scheme of ‘all against one;’ a scheme for creating a preponderance of power against the aggressor. Nevertheless, the existing security environment may not be conducive to follow such a principle in the international system at least for two reasons: the thermonuclear revolution and the grouping of states along ideological lines.
20.Soru
Which of the following is true for realists and neorealists?
the concepts of “self-help” and “relative capability” in international politics are emphasised |
international cooperation is possible, and it is the main feature of international relations. |
the distinction between domestic politics and international politics is not that clear |
power should not only be considered as “military power”;economic, social, cultural, and intellectual power also matter |
the importance of concepts such as world society, global governance, international institutions, and interdependence in the contemporary world are emphasised |
Unlike realists and neorealists who emphasize the concepts of “self-help” and “relative capability” in international politics, liberals focus on common interests where states can cooperate with one another and collaborate toward setting a framework for an institutionalized cooperation.
