  • Reflects the latest developments in the field, including Global Health, introducing students to those topics that will define the key issues in IR into the future
  • Uses a wide-range of case studies that span cultures and geographies, including contemporary issues such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the geopolitics of Artic climate change, and the Russia-Ukraine war, clearly demonstrating to readers the link between theory and practice
  • Integrated learning features, including case studies and questions, an interactive timeline, author tutorial videos, opposing opinions feature, and end of chapter questions, are all carefully developed to help students achieve a firm foundation in the study of international relations
  • Carefully edited by highly respected IR experts John Baylis, Steve Smith and Patricia Owens to ensure a coherent style throughout the book, making it ideal for students who are new to international relations studies

New to this edition:

  • A brand new chapter 25 on global health, by Professor Sophie Harman, helps students to make sense of global health politics, and explores global health emergencies including COVID-19 and Ebola.
  • A new chapter on realism by Dr Or Rosenboim looks at realism outside the West, exploring arguments and ideas beyond the Anglo-American canon, and demonstrates the relevance of non-western realist thinkers to modern realism.

       

The Globalization of World Politics is the bestselling introduction to international relations, and offers the most complete coverage of the key theories and global issues in world politics.

The ninth edition has been thoroughly updated to explore the most pressing topics and challenges that dominate international relations today, including a brand-new chapter on global health, which explores the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tailored pedagogical features help students to consider key international relations arguments and debates, and apply theories and approaches to real world events, bridging the gap between theory and application. Interactive activities, such as multiple-choice questions and the opposing opinions feature, foster active learning, enhancing students' understanding of key concepts and debates.

A diverse range of leading scholars in the field explore the history, theory, structures, and key issues in IR, providing students with an exceptionally comprehensive and clear introduction.
