Abstract
The author describes the nature of international politics as a process of constant flux. Instead of reimagining a world order not predicated on the state, he has chosen to dwell on the state and make sense of the vulnerabilities which define the human experience today. This chapter reflects on the evolution of theory and makes the case for constant theory building to reflect reality.
