Realism theory in international relations posits that war is an inevitable outcome of the anarchic nature of the international system, where states prioritize their own survival and interests. Realists argue that power dynamics and competition among states drive conflicts, as each state seeks to maximize its security and influence. Consequently, war is seen as a rational response to the threat posed by other states, reflecting the inherent uncertainty and distrust in international politics.

The just war theory was developed by early Christian theologians, notably St. Augustine in the 4th century and later expanded by St. Thomas Aquinas in the 13th century. They sought to reconcile the moral implications of war with Christian teachings, establishing criteria for when it is justifiable to go to war (jus ad bellum) and how to conduct it ethically (jus in bello). Over time, the theory has evolved, influencing international law and ethical discussions on warfare.

Realism and neo-realism are both valuable perspectives in international relations theory, each with its strengths. Realism emphasizes the importance of power, self-interest, and the nature of states in the international system, while neo-realism, or structural realism, focuses on the impact of the structure of the international system on state behavior. The choice of which theory is "better" depends on the specific research question or context being examined.
