6 Which of the following statements is NOT a Realist critique of Neo-liberal Institutionalism in International Relations?
(A) International institutions have no independent status; they merely reflect the distribution of power and interests.
(B) Under anarchy, even though international institutions possess monitoring and reciprocal mechanisms, the enforcement power of these institutions is too weak, which limits the extent of cooperation among states.
(C) Neo-liberal Institutionalism overlooks the problem of “relative gains”; states may still refuse to cooperate if they realize that other countries gain more than they do.
(D)Neo-liberal Institutionalism oversimplifies issues of international relations as problems of market information and efficiency, neglecting the structural oppression and inequalities inherent in the international system.

這題考的是 國際關係理論中「現實主義 vs. 新自由制度論」的辯論。
思考重點:
現實主義者對新自由制度論的典型批評主要有三:
-
制度不是獨立行為者,只是強權利益的反映(對應選項 A)。
-
無政府狀態下制度效力有限,缺乏強制力,無法保證合作(對應選項 B)。
-
忽視相對利益問題,即使合作能帶來絕對利益,國家也會因擔心他國獲益更多而拒絕合作(對應選項 C)。
而選項 (D) 「新自由制度論將國際問題過度簡化為市場資訊與效率問題,忽視結構性壓迫」——這其實比較接近 批判理論或世界體系論 對自由主義的批評,而不是現實主義對新自由制度論的典型批評。
正確答案:
(D)
