Kenneth Waltz
Kenneth Waltz was a prominent American political scientist, best known for his work in the field of international relations. He was a central figure in the development of neorealism, a theory that emphasizes the anarchic structure of the international system and the importance of state power. His influential books, including 'Man, the State, and War' and 'Theory of International Politics,' have shaped the discourse on global politics and security. Waltz's ideas have had a lasting impact on how scholars and policymakers understand global power dynamics.
