It is always discussed whether international relations is a discipline or only a part of political science. International Relations, as an independent discipline, still requires efforts to prove its quality in the eyes of scholars, politicians and with a great importance, the students. Although it is easier to accept it as a discipline, it is still necessary to tell and keep the story of its evolution on the scene as it is now one of most required area of study in this era. Now, the assumptions of IR theories are much more needed, its future prospects have more potential to analyse the world politics since the nature of international politics is evolving. The aim of this study is to tell a short history of international relations and the sources of IR as a discipline including how much IR owes to its Great Debates. As a part of the story, it is argued that the nature of international relations is cyclical which is now turning back to the starting point, to the times when international relations did not even exist, in a different form.
