International Relations (IR) is the study and practice of the interactions between sovereign states, as well as the relationships among various non-state actors such as international organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and multinational corporations. It encompasses various facets including diplomacy, conflict resolution, international law, and the global economy. The field examines how countries cooperate, compete, and influence one another, often focusing on issues such as war, peace, security, trade, and human rights.
