neo-realism

Italian cinematic movement

Neo-realism is a movement in art, film, or philosophy that returns to realistic depiction after a period of abstraction or stylization.

In cinema, Italian neo-realism emerged after World War II, using non-professional actors and real locations to portray working-class life: Bicycle Thieves is a neo-realism classic.

In international relations theory, neo-realism emphasizes how the structure of the global system shapes state behavior more than individual leaders or ideologies do.
