Summary: This major new text introduces all the main approaches and theoretical traditions in International Relations, showing where they came from, what they consider as especially important about global politics, and the new avenues they are opening up for future discovery. It innovates by bringing all these theories into conversation with one another, explaining where they conflict, where they overlap, and what their differences and similarities mean for our understanding of international relations. Theoretical discussion is enlivened by real-world examples drawn from across the globe, and the book is further distinguished by showing students how they can build their own theories and thereby grasp the intangible elements of world politics.
