Question
A thinker from this country complained about the lack of historical study in the essay “Why Is There No International Theory?” yet his lengthy survey on power politics was only published by two students after his death. After becoming a citizen of this country, one of those two students grounded the international order in a “society of states”; that concept and his book The Anarchical Society influenced this country’s namesake school of (*) international relations. Thomas Schelling’s namesake “dilemma” about preemptive strikes is a “trap” named for a thinker from this country who championed a commonwealth to overcome the “Kingdom of Darkness.” That thinker from this country influenced realism with his chaotic characterization of the state of nature. For 10 points, name this country home to Thomas Hobbes. ■END■
