| Abstract: | Neoliberals and their neorealist critics have debated the relative importance of two main obstacles to international cooperation -- problems of cheating and enforcement and problems of relative gains. By contrast, the author argues that problems of international cooperation have a common strategic structure in which a third, distinct obstacle plays a crucial role. Almost regardless of the issue area, states must first resolve the bargaining problem of agreeing on terms before they can implement and begin to enforce an agreement. |
