Abstract
This paper attempts to construct a realist theory of minor powers. First, it criticizes contemporary approaches on international politics constructed entirely on the idea that only great powers matter for world politics. Secondly, it surveys the definitions provided so far for major and minor powers an finds them inadequate. It then attempts to define minor powers in relation with their international subsystem and develops a theory of their behaviour in connection with the polarization of international subsystems.
