What the exam asks for. Edexcel examines two theories of global politics: realism and liberalism. Master these two for the 12-mark Q2 and every 30-mark essay. The English School and constructivism are wider perspectives: they sit between realism and liberalism and can lift a top answer, but the board does not require them. Learn the two core theories first.

Grid complete - now write a paragraph contrasting two theories. Detailed notes Walk-through

+ green = a point FOR − red = a point AGAINST The colours are the judgement, not your score. Your right and wrong shows as a tick or cross when you predict.

Decide first, then tap: does the theory hold this claim (+) or reject it (-)? Tap a column header to see what it asks. A tick or cross tells you if your prediction was right. Tap any heading or revealed cell (look for the blue ⓘ) for the full explanation.
