... It is known that the form of students' hard work behavior is most prominent among other aspects of nationalism (Mearsheimer, 2021).

... While not denying Western dominance, some scholars explain the lack of non-Western IR theories with the claim that there is no unique theorizing to find-non-Western scholars use the same theories as Western scholars (Mearsheimer 2016). Content analysis of academic journals partially supports this claim (Tickner and Waever 2009;Medeiros et al. 2016). ...

... This has unquestionably been a valuable resource for Israel, judging from the consistent support of the US for Israel in the international political arena. 7 While the Jewish experience may be unique, Jews are not the only people who share a history of hardship after having been violently separated from their homelands. Innumerable Africans suffered a harsh fate as a result of the slave trade conducted by Western countries. ...

... The Bush administration's decision to invade Iraq in 2003 remains to this day a puzzle for the literature of international relations. In fact, many prominent international relations scholars openly expressed their opposition to the Iraq War arguing that it was not in the interests of the United States to remove the regime of Saddam Hussein (Mearsheimer & Walt, 2003 literature has cited a wide variety of potential explanations regarding the decision of the Bush administration to invade Iraq. One of the most widely cited causes for the Iraq War related to the desire of neoconservatives to spread democracy in the Middle East (Flibbert, 2006;Kaplan & Kristol, 2003;MacDonald, 2014;Record, 2010;Schmidt & Williams, 2008). ...

... As China has advocated for jointly building Asian regional security that is shared by Asia and is a win-win for all, which alternative to the U.S. (Hang, 2017). Not to mention that if the U.S. lets that happen, it would show that it is losing its regional balance and letting China become the regional hegemony just like the U.S. has dominated in the Western Hemisphere (Mearsheimer, 2010). This will provoke a hard balancing in the Asia-Pacific region, potentially leading to conflict between the United States and China over international structural change, as reflected in the Thucydides Trap's argument (Allison, 2017). ...

... John J. Mearsheimer for instance warned bluntly (in his September/October 2001 piece entitled "The Future of the American Pacifier") "What makes a future Chinese threat so worrisome is that it might be far more powerful and dangerous than any of the potential hegemons that the United States confronted during the twentieth century" and "… a wealthy China would not be a status quo power; it would be an aggressive one determined to achieve regional hegemony." [44]. ...

... They believe that nationalism is a sense of being superior of having distinct race, colour, faith, religion, etc, in relation to others. However, on the other hand Realists regard nationalism in high value (Mearsheimer, 2011). Mearsheimer noted that "Nationalism is probably the most powerful political ideology in the world, and it glorifies the state" (Mearsheimer, 2001b, p. 365). ...

... China's narratives to wane off US dominance are not only strategically ambiguous but also considerably less aggressive to preserve itself and to avoid or minimize chances of a destructive competition. The consequences of a destructive confrontation will be detrimental especially to Beijing's guiding foreign policy logic of "peaceful rise" to global influence that is realized through its delusional engagement with the liberal order [47,48]. China is considerably keen on putting forward alternate compelling ideas and narratives for public discourse and shaping of peace and security perspectives. ...

... For example, pressure by Jewish Americans led President Truman (against the advice of his consultants) to support the UN partition plan that led to the establishment of a Jewish state in Israel (Cohen, 1990). Additionally, Jewish American interest groups have lobbied the United States government to strengthen Israel's army at critical points in Israel's history (Goldberg, 1996;Mearsheimer & Walt, 2006). The expansion of Jewish settlements in occupied Palestinian territories is often spearheaded by Jewish Americans who immigrate to Israel, and financed by Jewish American philanthropists (Hirschhorn, 2015). ...

... "Norms on the conquest of territory, treatment of refugees, and internally displaced persons (idps), treatment of dissidents, territorial integrity, weapons of mass destruction, trade practices, national selfdetermination, protection of populations, and humanitarian assistance are regularly contravened, and attempts to reinforce them fall into the national power competitions" (p. 7). In conditions of anarchy, which either pushes states to resort to self-help via realist pursuit for power (Morgenthau, 1954), neo-realist offensive (Mearsheimer, 2009) or defensive (Waltz, 2000) security-maximisation strategies or the constructivist 'what states make of it' (Wendt, 1992) understanding, "anything goes, power (unilateral capability) being the only criterion" (Zartman, 2019, p. 7). The 'security dilemma' filled with an 'arms race' resulting in escalation has, thereby, been transformed into an 'insecurity quandary' plagued by hybrid wars between/among great and middle powers, which may produce a 'butterfly effect'. ...
