Dimensions of truth

The world is not totally one way or the other. I feel that the world is made up of multiple truths. The way I may see the world may not be the way you see the world, but that doesn't necessarily mean my view is wrong. I sort of see reality as a three dimensional thing, like a diamond. There are many surfaces and planes which casts off every color in the spectrum. If you look one way you see one color, but if you look at it from another angle you see a totally different color. Just because one person sees a situation through a certain lens does not mean that others do not exist or are wrong. When thinking about the incompatibility between the three different schools of thoughts and their interpretation of the Brenton Wood system I hate how society tells us that we have to choose what is right and what is wrong. Instead I feel that we should see these different approaches as just a different plane and not choose right or wrong. As we talked about in class, the people in each school of thought looks at different things when examining the system. They have different definitions for what consists of an institution they look at different entities ( groups and norms vs. individuals etc. They look at the world in different colors. We should take these colors, combine them and make a rainbow. or create a multi-colored lens that allows us to see the world through different perspectives. Okay, the constructivist, the liberals, and the realists do not see the Brenton Wood system the same, but I find no reason to pick which view is right, indefinitely. We should pick the view that is right for the situation and the parties involved. Keep each view in our "IR Tool Belt." By doing so we can see where each view is lacking and use the others to allow us to see interactions between countries more clearly.
