The purpose of this paper is to clarify the structure of conflict and cooperation in international political economy theoretically.In international politics, we have witnessed the debate between realism and idealism ever since the beginning of the discipline: realism focuses on the conflictual aspects of interstate relations; and idealism assumes the basic harmony of interests among nations. A similar contrast between realism and idealism can also be seen in international political economy.In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the "traditional" interdependence theory which was based on the assumption that the basic relations among states are harmonious in nature a la the Ricardian theory of comparative advantages had been developed and elaborated. And, it was contrasted against the classical theory of international politics which was based on the conflictual nature in interstate relations. However, in the 1980s, what is called the theory of strategic trade policy was "invented" which reveals at least theoretically partial zero-sum aspects in international trade relations. And that theory seemed to have accelerated the conflictual nature of international economic relations. Furthermore, since the late 1980s, the reise of the relative gain hypothesis has radically shifted the theories of international political economy still further into the realist side of the spectrum. However, those theories which are based on cooperative aspects of international economic relations and which advocate multilateralism and intenational regimes have been still influnetial. And, the international economic relations in the real world exhibit both cooperative and conflictual behavior. Politics of international economic relations is indeed a mixed motive game and thus we have to develop a theory which includes both conflict and cooperation and which is able to guide us to control conflicts more effectively and to advance international cooperation so that the global, as well as national, economic welfare is to be enhanced.
