International bet365 tennis bet refers to a psychological impression of its own image left by a country to internal and external observers in international relations。Difference from the concept of national image that has been popular in recent years，This psychological impression reflects a country’s strength and its determination to use this strength、Will and ability。Due to the asymmetry of information and the existence of private information in anarchy，This psychological impression directly affects the estimation of power relations and comparison，In turn affecting decision-making and behavior，Therefore it is a typical concept of international political psychology。

　The tradition of international bet365 tennis bet research

Although researchers usually trace the literature on international bet365 tennis bet to Edward Carr's "Twenty Years of Crisis", he elaborated on the power to dominate public opinion as a third source of state power besides military and economic strength.，But it was Hans Morgenthau who first clearly proposed and discussed "international bet365 tennis bet"。Morgenthau understands the bet365 tennis bet that exists between countries from the perspective of interpersonal relationships。He discovered correctly，The bet365 tennis bet of the country that exists in the minds of other countries rather than the direct strength of the country，It is the most direct factor that affects the policies of other countries，This constitutes the earliest study of bet365 tennis bet in international relations theory。

Another master of realism theory, Robert Gilpin, developed Morgenthau’s understanding of international bet365 tennis bet from the perspective of system function。Gilpin pointed out succinctly and clearly that "bet365 tennis bet is the reputation of strength, especially military strength"，Transactions between countries and their negotiation results mainly depend on the corresponding bet365 tennis bet of the participating parties。Therefore，One of the main functions of war, especially hegemonic war，It is to determine the different levels of international bet365 tennis bet，And thereby determine which countries actually rule the international system。

　The Development of International bet365 tennis bet Studies

Morgenthau and Gilpin’s discussions on international bet365 tennis bet focus on the views of supporters of bet365 tennis bet，Also constitutes the traditional view of international bet365 tennis bet research。Those who agree carry forward Morgenthau’s analysis of enhancing national bet365 tennis bet through diplomatic etiquette and displays of force，Think sports events，Especially through performance at the Olympic Games，Is a new platform to display the country’s international bet365 tennis bet，Expanded the observation methods to enhance bet365 tennis bet。Of course，Not all researchers agree on the importance of bet365 tennis bet。The development of cognitive psychology，further reveals Morgenthau’s view that bet365 tennis bet depends on the recognition of others rather than self-imagination，This way，Further discussion on whether bet365 tennis bet can be accurately understood from a cognitive perspective has become a growth point for further research。Perception is an individual’s subjective reflection of external objective facts，Has strong selectivity and understanding，It is related to the degree of stimulation of the perceived object、Related to comparison differences，More relevant to the perceiving subject’s existing knowledge and experience、Thinking and Attitude、Interest needs motivation and attention points related to emotions。Therefore，Different objects often cannot draw consistent conclusions for the same result。

Daniel Markey thinks，Gilpin’s understanding of the importance of bet365 tennis bet is rooted in a mistaken cognitive assumption，The reason why he regards war, especially hegemonic war, as a functional need of the system，Because he effectively assumes that states and their leaders are incapable of updating their assessments of relative power among states in a timely manner to keep pace with material changes in power。Among other branches of power transition theory，Like Markey, they seem to disagree with Gilpin's hypothesis，Whether it is Dale Copeland’s emphasis on preventive war，Or Ogensky (A.F. K. Organski) pays special attention to the 80%-120% range of national strength comparison，Both of them actually believe that the country has the ability to update its bet365 tennis bet perception in a timely manner。Jonathan Mercer follows his critical approach to national reputation，Borrowed from social identity theory and attribution theory，Negate the importance of international bet365 tennis bet through the difference between Britain's own perception of bet365 tennis bet and the perception of Britain's bet365 tennis bet by other major bystander countries during the Anglo-Boer War。In his opinion，bet365 tennis bet in international relations is an illusory goal。

Although Mercer believes that his research overturns the traditional research on bet365 tennis bet by Morgenthau and Gilpin，But to some extent, his negative research just proves the legitimacy of Gilpin’s research。Mercer seeks singleness、Objective、The failure of recognized cognitive standards for national international bet365 tennis bet does not negate the practical role of national international bet365 tennis bet，It just reminds us，Differences in bet365 tennis bet recognition and interpretation due to cognitive and other psychological mechanisms。Although he only compared the differences in perceptions of other countries’ bet365 tennis bet between different countries，But this difference can also exist domestic，Thus involving and stirring up complex domestic political struggles that determine the country’s foreign policy and behavior。If you can accept this understanding，The combination of cognitive differences and domestic politics explains Markey’s confusion about why countries often fail to update their perceptions of other countries’ bet365 tennis bet in a timely manner，Thus leading to the static assumptions held by Gilpin about the hierarchy of international bet365 tennis bet，That is, its final change has to rely on war, mainly hegemonic war to achieve，After all, even if the dispute about bet365 tennis bet level is defeated on the battlefield, it is a defeat。

　　The future of international bet365 tennis bet research

Objectively speaking，Compared to other mainstream issues，The study of international bet365 tennis bet is still in a relatively marginal position，The reason for this situation has a lot to do with the ambiguity of its own concept，Especially with status、Differences and connections between adjacent concepts such as reputation。

Gilpin’s reference to bet365 tennis bet levels clearly implies that there is a ranking of bet365 tennis bet，So is such a ranking an international status?？Yuen Foong Khong’s analysis and operation of the bet365 tennis bet level of China and the United States in the Asia-Pacific region，It is almost impossible to find the difference between the two concepts。Mercer also thinks so，bet365 tennis bet and status are synonyms，There are only some minor differences。Then what is this tiny difference？International status is considered to be the common understanding of a country’s international ranking on important attributes，Depends on the total image of a country recognized by other countries。In other words，Status needs to be recognized。Some scholars also believe that，Legitimacy is an important condition for obtaining status。Then，Is it conceivable，bet365 tennis bet can exist without legitimacy。

In addition to status，Barry O'Neill believes that reputation is also an expanded concept that is almost the same as bet365 tennis bet。Mercer doesn’t think there is any real difference between the two concepts。Traditional research believes that "bet365 tennis bet is the reputation of power"。Reputation is closely related to the credibility of promises，Generally speaking，Reputation is the fulfillment of pre-commitments or threats to oneself，Without this pre-commitment or threat, there is no reputation.，But bet365 tennis bet does not depend on the existence of this pre-commitment。When a big country sits back and watches another hostile country bully or even invade a small country that is friendly with it，If there is no prior protection commitment and deterrent threat，Strictly speaking, it will not damage its reputation，But to sit back and watch this happen would damage its bet365 tennis bet。In other words，The scope of bet365 tennis bet may be greater than reputation，The damage to reputation inevitably affects bet365 tennis bet，However, the loss of bet365 tennis bet does not necessarily affect reputation。In addition，It is difficult for a small country to gain bet365 tennis bet，But you can also build your own reputation through your own words and deeds。

If the above understandings are true，That means，Compared with status，bet365 tennis bet can exist independently of the recognition of others；But at the same time compared to reputation，bet365 tennis bet has to rely on a hierarchy recognized by others。Understanding the precise definition of bet365 tennis bet must resolve the relationship and logical consistency with these adjacent concepts，Only in this way can its research field and status be truly established。
