"This book provides a much-needed classroom text in international studies that is genuinely interdisciplinary in its approach. International Studies focuses specifically on five core disciplines; history, geography, anthropology, political science and economics, and describes them in relation to one another, as well as their individual and collective contributions to the study of global issues. The expert authors also emphasize the continuing importance of area studies within an interdisciplinary and global framework, applying its interdisciplinary framework to substantive issues in seven regions: Europe, East Asia and the Pacific, South and Central Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, Latin America and North America. This new edition has been completely updated and substantially revised with two new chapters on Media, Sovereignty and Cybersecurity and Sustainable Development. This disciplinary and regional combination offers a useful and cohesive framework for teaching students a substantive and comprehensive approach to understanding global issues"--

Recenzijas

"International Studies is an outstanding introductory text for courses that aim to teach an interdisciplinary approach to global affairs. Students not only get a sense of how historians, political scientists, anthropologists, geographers, and economists see the world, but also come to understand how each discipline helps its practitioners address pressing global challenges."

James Stocker, Trinity Washington University, USA.

"International Studies provides a fascinating mix of multiple disciplinary approaches to International Studies, comprehensive regional coverage, and an eclectic mix of contemporary thematic topics including climate change, refugees, sustainable development, and terrorism. It absolutely delivers on the promise of a single volume introduction to International Studies."

Scott Pegg, Department of Political Science, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis, USA.
