Neo-realist and liberal approaches to globalization have been the subject of debate for many decades. Traditionally, the liberal view of globalization has exaggerated the idea of ​​globalization, while neorealist views have downplayed the importance of globalization. The word “useful” can be defined at different levels to reach a conclusion. The usefulness can be examined as to how each approach can help understand globalization. However, usefulness can also be used to describe the impact of different approaches and, finally, the word useful can be used to identify the correctness of both approaches, hopefully helping. recognize which approach to globalization is most useful. This essay will first examine the differences between neorealist and liberal approaches to globalization. These include: the extent to which globalization exists in these approaches, the role that war should play in the globalization debate and finally where power lies, which differs a lot between the two approaches, as Scholte describes , “realism reduces power relations too simplistically” (Scholte: 2005). : p.128), which completely contrasts with the liberal vision of globalization. This essay will then examine the similarities between these two approaches, including the fact that these approaches are both Eurocentric and unaware of contemporary international politics. The usefulness of these approaches will be examined throughout in order to arrive at an analytical and evaluative conclusion, which gives a clear indication of the importance and extent of globalization. Neorealist and liberal views were formed by very different thinkers, who therefore have different views on globalization... middle of article... this view is a very narrow view of globalization, simply rejecting its existence without deepening globalization. It is therefore fair to say that the liberal approach to globalization is very useful because it gives an in-depth view of globalization with links to contemporary examples. The liberal view is more practical than the neorealist view, as shown by Reagan and Thatcher who adopted Adam Smith's policies in the 1980s. Therefore, although the neorealist approach to globalization is both interesting and insightful , the liberal approach to globalization is much more useful because it is current and practical, and seems to be a more accurate way of describing world politics at the moment. , especially since Europe is suffering from a recession caused by the American markets. The liberal approach to globalization is therefore more useful than that of the neorealists..
