World Politics: International Relations and Globalisation in the 21st Century

In these uncertain times, the study of international relations and the forces that shape them have never been more important.   Written specifically for students who are approaching this subject for the first time, World Politics is the most accessible, coherent and up-to-date account of the field available. It covers the historical backdrop to today’s political situations, the complex interactions of states and non-state actors, the role of political economy, human security in all its forms, and the ways in which culture, religion and identity influence events.    World Politics takes a new approach that challenges traditional interpretations, and will equip students with the knowledge and the confidence needed to tackle the big issues.

A New A-Z of International Relations Theory (Library of International Relations)

International Relations is the multi-disciplinary and heterogeneous study which goes to the heart of relations between states and international organizations, embracing international politics, economics, political economy, diplomatic, and international history. It seeks to explain the mainsprings of global politics, is a prime field for historians and especially for political scientists, and IR theory provides the essential intellectual underpinning of the discipline. This book features over 250 alphabetical entries covering the most important and the latest cutting-edge theory, from anarchy to world systems theory. Entries include scholars, writers, concepts, principal debates, argumentation, theories, leading schools of thought, states, international bodies, conflicts and war, treaties and alliances. The coverage is global and comprehensive with substantial cross-referencing, and the extensive index serves as a major reference tool enabling readers to pick up additional important subjects from the main alphabetical entries. Clear and concise writing cuts through even the most opaque theoretical subjects and the result is an essential reference guide for students of International Relations, politics, and history that will guide both specialists and general readers through the fast-changing complexities of global politics.
