World Politics: International Relations and Globalisation in the 21st Century

 
From the war on terror to the global financial crisis, traditional concepts of world politics are being challenged on a daily basis.

World Politics takes a new approach that challenges traditional interpretations, and will equip students with the knowledge and the confidence needed to tackle the big issues.
