Summary: WorldCat Summary: [This book] is aimed at filling a void in materials for learning about world politics and foreign policy. The articles are chosen for those who are new to the study of world politics. The goal is to help students learn more about international issues that often seem remote but may have profound consequences for a nation's well-being, security, and survival. International relations can be viewed as a complex and dynamic system of actions and reactions by a diverse set of factors. The articles in this volume convey just how dynamic, interdependent, and complex the relations among different types of international factors are in contemporary international relations.
