The Marxist theory of international relations, rather than focusing on conflict or cooperation between states as realism and liberalism do, focuses on economic aspects. Marxist theorists believe that economic and material elements are of primary concern in international relations and that current global structures have created a classist system. Critics of the Marxist approach claim that it focuses too narrowly on economic aspects and does not place enough importance on other ideas.
