In this essay I analyse the debate and present an argument in two phases: first, I deconstruct the concept of “international order” and provide two interpretations of it –this is important because much of the answer to the debate depends on what is understood by “international order”. Hence, from a contemporary Westphalian perspective I define “international order” as a society of states whose principal goals are the preservation of the states system. Second, by focusing on “agency” rather than “structure” I define the current “international order” as a Western and in particular US-led neo-liberal hegemonic project.
