DESCRIPTION:
The analytical framework instructors love, with the tools and clarity students need. Why are there wars? Why do countries struggle to cooperate to prevent genocides or to protect the environment? Why are some countries rich while others are poor? Organized around the puzzles that draw scholars and students alike to the study of international relations, World Politics gives students the tools they need to think analytically about the field’s most compelling questions.
