Description

This reader presents students with a selection of writings from poloitical theory and international relations which provide a starting point for further study of their subjects. The book draws together writings representing two distinct traditions and demonstrates their interconnections. In political theory, excerpts are drawn from classical texts which have an important bearing on problems of international relations - and in international relations, essays are presented which have had a seminal influence upon the development of the discipline. The editors believe that there is much to be learned from the interface between international relations and political theory and they demonstrate that although they are seen by some as two distinct fields, their subject matter is one: the nature of human conduct in a global context.
