Publisher Synopsis
"A rare accomplishment. Quite the best introductory text in international relations I have ever seen." Peter Vale, University of Johannesburg "This is the kind of textbook that promotes intelligent conversation between student and teacher about the evolution of International Relations both as a discipline of study and as practice. With a light touch and admirable clarity of language, it confidently handles the definitional and conceptual ideas at the heart of the subject." Rosemary Foot, St Antony's College, Oxford "The new edition of Stephanie Lawson's innovative international relations text builds on the strengths of the first edition - its historical contextualization of contemporary global politics, an emphasis on normative elements, and an openness to various theoretical approaches - and adds comprehensive chapters on IR theory and on international political economy." John Ravenhill, Australian National University Read more...
