| THEORETICAL APPROACHES TO WORLD POLITICS (1) |
 ‘Theoretical Approaches to World Politics’ is written in the spring of 2000. I offer it to critical public considerations without making any changes.
1. INTRODUCTION
My purpose in this paper is to provide an account of International Relations on the one hand and locate myself within the field on the other. There are a wide range of theoretical approaches to world politics with different epistemology, methodology and ontology. In creating an account of the field I shall mainly deal with (neo)realism, liberalism, Marxism, transnational historical materialism.

| PARLAMENTER OPORTÜNİZM DEĞİL, KOMÜNİST-DEVRİMCİLİK! (1) |
| Türkiye ve Kuzey-Kürdistan coğrafyası yine tansiyonu yüksek bir seçim sürecinden geçiyor. Halk kitlelerinin politikaya ilgisinin seçim öncesi dönemlere göre çok daha fazla arttığı ve/veya artırıldığı bu dönemde “sol” politik hareket de iyice hareketlendi. Bu yazının görevi, seçime katılan politik partiler, örgütler, bloklar, bağımsız adaylar vb. de dahil olmak üzere, seçim sürecinin genel bir çözümlemesini yapmak değildir. Burada, asıl olarak, seçim sürecinin ve parlamentonun devrim ve sosyalizm savaşımı için kullanılması görevi üzerinde durulacaktır. |

 SOME THEORIES USED TO RESEARCH THE INTEGRATION OF IMMIGRANTS INTO THE LABOUR-POWER MARKET
There are several theories that are used to research the integration or participation processes of immigrants into the labour-power market in the receiving capitalist societies. While some of them, such as human capital theory, are extensively used, others, such as Marxist class analysis, are largely ignored. In the following pages I provide a short account as well as critiques of these theories.
2.2.1 Human capital theory
The origin of human capital theory goes back to the emergence of classical economics in the 18th century. According to Fitzsimons (1999), in his book The Wealth of Nations (1776), “Adam Smith formulated the basis of what was later to become the science of human capital.”
