WORLD POLITICS IN A NEW ERA provides a basic overview of international relations, providing a strong historical foundation coupled with the integration of current issues and a cohesive theme of globalization and fragmentation. Completely reorganized in the Third Edition to cover theoretical issues in the beginning, highlight the importance of political economy, then spotlight both historical and current global issues in the latter half, the book aims to give students context to better grasp the numerous issues in world politics today. In addition, a powerful new pedagogical program and research tools built into the book and its package, including Infotrac and a CD and International Relations Resource Center on the web, WORLD POLITICS IN A NEW ERA is a book both instructors and students appreciate for its reliability, flexibility, and readability. - from Amzon
