GLOBAL POLITICS A CHANGING WORLD: A READER

---

This collection of classic writings and current events articles from journalistic sources illuminates the central issues in the study of international relations while familiarizing students with contemporary actors and debates in world politics. Case materials emphasize the global nature of issues in the Post-Cold War era. The distinctive blend of readings—from sources such as The New York Times and The Economist—provide a stimulus for informed debate and encourage students to view daily events as part of the larger process of global change.

A reorganized structure includes the addition of Part I: The Changing Nature of War which allows for a greater thematic coherence and supports a change in emphasis from traditional to postmodern warfare. Every chapter opens with a brief essay to provide context, then addresses key topics from a scholarly/theoretical view, followed by readings that present news and current events within the chapter theme. Suggested topics at the end of each chapter help reinforce students' understanding of readings and provide a starting point for class discussion.

- Chapter 3: A New Kind of War? International Terrorism and Chapter 8: Thy Brother's Keeper: Human Rights and International Law in the Postinternational Era respond to the September 11, 2001 attacks and the increased importance of human rights and international law.
