Description
The fully updated third edition of Introduction to Global Politics continues to provide a vital resource for students looking to explain global politics using an historical approach, firmly linking history with the events of today. By integrating theory and political practice at individual, state, and global levels, students are introduced to key developments in global politics, helping them make sense of major trends that are shaping our world.
Retaining the successful format of previous editions, this is a highly illustrated textbook with informative and interactive boxed material throughout. Chapter opening timelines contextualise the material that follows, and definitions of key terms are provided in a glossary at the end of the book. Every chapter ends with student activities, cultural materials, and annotated suggestions for further reading.
Key updates for this edition:
- New material on key topical issues such as Islamβs relationship with the West, Islamic State, BRICS and other emerging economies, the continuing effects of the Arab Spring, and R2P.
- Coverage of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and North Koreaβs continued development of its nuclear weapons and missile programmes.
- Analysis of new technologies for warfighting β such as drones, IEDs and cyber technologies β as well as technologies for countering terrorism and conducting unconventional wars.
- Updated examples from around the globe in every chapter.
Stimulating and provocative both for students and for instructors, Introduction to Global Politics, 3rd Edition, is essential reading for students of political science, global politics, and international relations.
