New to this edition
• The book has been restructured. It now contains an extended Part 2 on Major Global Politics (GP) Theories and Approaches. This new part - almost one-third of the book - contains chapters on Post-structuralism, Postcolonialism, Feminism and Queer Theory, and Green Theory.
• A new Chapter 1 replaces the old Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. It carefully introduces the new structure of the book.
• To make room for the new Part 2, substantial revisions have been made to all other chapters. The chapters on IR theories have thus been shortened and the chapters and issues in Part 3 have been reworked so that GP perspectives are included.
• All chapters have been brought up to date in light of current events and ongoing debates in the discipline. The book contains many new text boxes and figures.
