With the link between resources and control weakened, the second link between the distribution of control over outcomes as indicators of international rule might not be worthwhile studying at all. And yet, this is where *international political economy (and *constructivism and *poststructuralism, see below) have made their most important contribution to power analysis. In fact, concepts of structural power redefine the context within which strategic interaction takes place, the resources considered important for assessing capabilities in the first place, and the outcomes that should be included in power analysis. Their common claim is that the sole reference to the first link, as done by neo-institutionalists, is insufficient, if not biased, for understanding rule in the international system. Politics is about more than winning bargains or conflicts. Rule is more than coercion or persuasion.
