Thucydides, Hobbes, and the Interpretations of Realism: Thucydides, Hobbes, and the Interpretation of Realism

This original book has been consistently cited by scholars of international relations who explore the roots of realism in Thucydides's history and the political philosophy of Thomas Hobbes. While acknowledging that neither thinker fits perfectly within the confines of international relations realism, Laurie M. Johnson proposes Hobbes's philosophy is more closely aligned with it than Thucydides's. -- "The English Historical Review"
