Review Review from previous edition: "I love this text and the students do too. It's received very high evaluations and students have given a lot of positive feedback about this text. One student described it as 'empowering' - I can't think of a better recommendation than that."--Valerie D'Erman, sessional instructor, University of Victoria"The Globalization of World Politics is the most comprehensive International Relations textbook. The number and diversity of topics covered makes it a very flexible teaching tool."--Felix Ciuta, Senior Lecturer in International Relations, University College London"This is a brilliant textbook that helps set common ground in introductory courses that are attended by many students with different backgrounds."--Pia Riggirozzi, Lecturer in Global Politics, University of Southampton"The Globalization of World Politics gives undergraduate students an informative and accessible overview of what is an extremely challenging and complex subject."--Kenneth McDonagh, Lecturer in International Relations, Dublin City University"This is a comprehensive analysis of contemporary developments in global politics, written by a team of experts in the various fields.

This book was required from my professor, but when I received this book, I was surprised at the organization and easy comprehension of such complex and ambiguous concepts! I am NOT an academia, but I think this is a really good textbook for students learning about international politics.
