Constructive realism is a branch of philosophy , specifically the philosophy of science . It was developed in the late 1980s by Friedrich Wallner also Fritz Wallner in Vienna. In his paper abstract on constructive realism, Wallner describes it as follows Traditional convictions regarding science such as universalism, necessity and eternal validity are currently in doubt. Relativism seems to destroy scientific claims to rationality. This paper shows a way to keep the traditional convictions of scientific knowledge while acknowledging relativism. With reference to the practicing scientist, we replace descriptivism with constructivism we modify relative validity with the claim to understanding and, we offer methodological strategies for acquiring understanding. These strategies we call strangification, which means taking a scientific proposition system out of its context and putting it in another context. We can thus see the implicit presuppositions of the given proposition system by means of the problems arising out of the application of this procedure. Such a change in the understanding of science holds important consequences.

Christian Realism is a branch of philosophy developed by Reinhold Niebuhr in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Niebuhr argued that the kingdom of heaven can not be realized on Earth because of the innately corrupt tendencies of society. Due to the injustices that arise on Earth, a person is therefore forced to compromise the ideal of the kingdom of heaven on Earth. Niebuhr argued that human perfectibility was an illusion. He highlighted the sinfulness of humanity at a time when the world was confronted by the experience of Hitler, Stalin and the Holocaust. Political connections Christian Realism exerted a strong influence on US foreign and domestic policy in the Cold War era. Many members of the neoconservative movement have claimed to inherit Niebuhr s philosophy, however others argue that Neoconservatism neglects Niebuhr s commitment to social justice. ref , Steinfels, P 2007, 26 May Two Social Ethicists and the National Landscape, New York Times, interview with Gary Dorrien, retrieved from http www.nytimes.com 2007 05 26 us 26beliefs.html? r 1 ref Perspectives on Christian Realism Christian realism inspired no hymns and built no lasting institutions.

Notability date March 2008 Orphan date August 2009 Subaltern realism is a theory first proposed in the 1980s and further developed in the 1990s by Professor Mohammed Ayoob , a scholar of international relations . The theory is a critical rejoinder to the neorealism of Kenneth Waltz and others, including the domestic analogies that neorealism employs. It aims to provide an analytical tool for grasping the major determinants of Third World state behavior, the dominant concerns of Third World state elites, and the root causes of conflict in the Third World. The theory emphasizes the divergence of Third World conditions from those of industrialized core states, and has gone on to criticize mainstream International Relations theory for excluding the Third World. It proposes an alternative conceptualization of security and emphasizes the inequality in IR theorizing. Principles The subaltern realism theory advocates that third world states are generally weak, and are often economically and militarily dependent on external benefactors, mostly industrialized states. Therefore, third world states are more concerned with relative gains and short term benefits than long term benefits and absolute gains. Additionally, third world states interactions are limited to their immediate neighborhood, especially in the security sphere, and as such they will choose to interact with other states who possess similar characteristics. They are therefore much less concerned with security matters of an international level. ref Ayoob, Mohammed Inequality and Theorizing in International Relations The Case for Subaltern Realism , International Studies Review, Vol. 4, No. 3.
