Question
In a book titled Elusive [this concept], William Wohlforth re-examined the Cold War in the context of perceptions of this concept. Robert Pape identified “economic strengthening” and “territorial denial” as methods of creating the “soft” form of this concept. According to John Mearsheimer’s The Tragedy of Great Power Politics, the fear of war is highest in multipolar systems without this concept, while multipolar systems with this concept still generate more fear than bipolar systems. Stephen Walt argued that aggression and national security drive foreign policy in a theory named for this concept “of (*) threat.” This concept is often contrasted with bandwagoning, where a state allies with a rising power, in a theory developed by Kenneth Waltz. For 10 points, the theory that states create alliances to prevent a state from growing too strong is known as what concept “of power”? ■END■
