The frameworks and analyses of International Relations consider a range of concepts. Initial frameworks such as the three levels of analysis (individual, state and the international system) remain valuable; the three principles of cooperation also are valid. But the range of outcomes has altered, particularly regarding practice and policies.
There are important concepts such as alliances, cooperation, the collective goods problem, the clash of civilizations argument, socialism, terrorism, and the political spectrum. Power remains very important, as is the projection of that power. It has been argued the world is still affected by the former Cold War (1945 – 1999), and that therefore, so have international relations, especially between the United States and Russia, along with the former Soviet states.
Expanded issues in international relations include further development of specific theories, along with the addition of newer ones. International law is now a key element of relations between states and the overall international system. It arose from customary and conventional laws, many of them domestic. Issues of morality and ethics have moved from the philosophical arena to that of political ethics and morality. Humanitarian and humane concerns make up part of this discussion in IR.
International governmental organizations and non-governmental organizations are relative newcomers to International Relations. While the League of Nations was not maintained successfully, the United Nations was founded in 1945, immediately following World War II. The initial purpose of both was to avoid future wars like those that had just been experienced, in which tens of millions died and more millions faced ruined lives and lands. Global devastation from new weapon technology is a genuine concern today, and international organizations attempt to address these threats and others, even those from non-state actors such as paramilitaries, terrorists, nationalist groups, inter-ethnic rivalries and the like. The European Union has grown and expanded from its founding in 1948 to encompass many international issues, with even its own currency, the euro.
As also understood from the information given, the correct answer is B. The statements with regard to the scope and history of Internation Relations in the option I “Initial frameworks and analyses of International Relations such as the three levels of analysis (individual, state and the international system) remain valuable.”, in the option II “International law is now a key element of relations between states and the overall international system.” and in the option III “International governmental organizations and non-governmental organizations are relative newcomers to International Relations.” are correct. The statement in the option IV “While the League of Nations was not maintained successfully, the United Nations was founded in 1946, immediately following World War II.” is not correct due to the fact that “ While the League of Nations was not maintained successfully, the United Nations was founded in 1945, immediately following World War II.”. The statement in the option V “The European Union has grown and expanded from its founding in 1950 to encompass many international issues, with even its own currency, the euro.” is not correct, either because of the fact that “ The European Union has grown and expanded from its founding in 1948 to encompass many international issues, with even its own currency, the euro.”

The United Nations avoided a problem that led to the downfall of the League of Nations when it---?
Created its own standing army to address war and threats of war worldwide. |
Offered the “great powers” the opportunity to veto actions perceived not to be in those great powers’ best interests. |
Came to represent all member states in international courts. |
Set up the concept of sovereignty for each member state. |
Refused to engage in military policing operations. |
Scholars find that one of the reasons for the failure of the League of Nations was that its collective security goals were too ambitious. Article 10 of the League Covenant required members to respond and defeat aggression on any member state. However, no state was willing to send its citizens into another war because of League concerns. The UN was relatively realistic in that the Charter gave veto power only to P5 so that states would not expect to defeat aggression without the concrete support of big powers in the system.
