Third International Theory

Third International Theory is a way of thinking about how different countries interact with each other. The theory suggests that countries have three main goals when it comes to dealing with other countries: security (staying safe from attack), power (being powerful), and prosperity (becoming rich). The goal of Third International Theory is to help countries find the best way to achieve all of these goals at the same time. To do this, it suggests that countries form alliances and work together to solve different problems, like trade and security, in order to create a more peaceful and prosperous world.
