What do we study in international relations? How do we study it? And how do we apply it?
Using these guiding questions as a framework, International Relations, Brief Edition, shows students how to think critically about issues in world politics. In each chapter, a brief opening case is followed by a description of key developments, an explanation of the main approaches to analyze them,
and applications of those approaches in individual, state, and global contexts. The authors provide extensive historical information throughout, giving students a holistic frame of reference from which to understand current events.
