Abstract
Scholars who support the theory of neorealism aim at explaining different developments within the international system as well as the characteristic
related to its stability. Analyzing stability of international system presents the focus for neorealist's whether it is an integrated unity as in the case of Waltz, or special area of creating the framework for analysis of the problems of war and changes in world politics, as in the case of Gilpin. The challenges of analyzing the stability among the scholars of neorealism presented and will present the important area of theoretic interest. On the other hand other theoretical perspectives such as liberal institutionalism tend to analyze structural realism as well.
