商品簡介
The second edition of this acclaimed introductory textbook sets out a framework for the consideration of international relations by identifying four essential elements in the analysis of contemporary world politics: the international arena, the international agenda, processes and power, and order, justice and power.
Each of these elements is analysed in depth and illustrated by a case study of chapter length.
The second edition has been completely revised and updated to take into account the many changes in world politics since the first edition was published in 1990. It now includes more material on the international political economy, conflict management, the global environment and regionalisation. Throughout, the text is illustrated with tables, diagrams and boxes. Each chapter ends with a summary of content and an annotated further reading section.
