Abstract
The Current Debate on International Regime Formation Political research is increasingly concerned with the influence of domestic politics on the formation of international regimes. It is unclear whether liberal institutionalism fully acknowledges the importance of domestic politics, while neorealism invariably underestimates it. Scholars such as Joseph Grieco and Robert Keohane invite greater efforts in forging the- oretical linkages between domestic determinants of policy choices, and inter- national regime formation. They believe that such determinants are vital to understanding the way in which relative gains concerns are translated into policy through the selection of appropriate diplomatic strategies (Baldwin 1993). It also remains debatable whether a fewer number of state-actors make it easier for international cooperation to materialize on specific issues related to national security and economic welfare.
