World Politics: Trend and Transformation - Softcover

This widely-used textbook provides a complete introduction to international relations and to global problems and policy issues. The authors cover both rivalries between nations and issues - like terrorism, nuclear proliferation, energy and resource politics, and patterns of international production and investment - which transcend national boundaries. Their approach blends historical and descriptive information with more analytic, theoretical and conceptual discussion. The new fifth edition has been comprehensively revised throughout to become the first genuinely post-cold war text.
