English school

The English School is current of thought in International relations. It is represented by authors like Martin Wight, Hedley Bull, David Mitrany or John Burton.

The English School considers the international relations like a complex beam of relations between the States, which forms a “international company” (and not only one “inter-official system”). By contrast with the realistic theory which postulates international state of nature to the direction “hobbesien” of the term (“the war of all against all”), the English School adopts a design “lockienne” (the state of nature like state of equality but absence of an impartial judge).

The English school conceives the international relations like a company without State. This company can be deduced from the principal institutions which control the international relations: the War, “great powers”, the Diplomacy, the balance of the power ( balances power off), and especially mutual recognition by the States of their sovereignty.
