anarchy in international relations  

Definición

  • Anarchy—from the Greek a (no) and archè (dominion/authority)—in international relations refers to the situation that the international system lacks an agency that if necessary can force the members of the system, even the most powerful ones, to abide by the rules and keep their promises. Like all anarchical systems, the international system is a self-help system: it does not have bailiffs. [Source: Encyclopedia of Power; Anarchy in International Relations]
