Case Histories in International Politics

"Providing historical illustrations of the core concepts in international relations, the original case studies in Case Histories in International Politics closely examine major international political events in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. By examining the key issues and problems that have arisen over the last fifty years, the fifth edition looks beyond current events to provide a historical perspective and theoretical framework for analyzing world affairs." "Each case study includes a chronology, biographies of key actors, maps, and data tables to establish historical and geographic context. In addition, debate topics and discussion questions encourage critical thinking about the cases and their contemporary relevance, and a new feature, "Thinking Theoretically," prompts students to apply international relations theory to the cases."--BOOK JACKET.Stiles, Kendall W. is the author of 'Case Histories in International Politics', published 2003 under ISBN 9780321159700 and ISBN 0321159705.
