内容説明
This introductory text on international relations concentrates on the struggle for power and order in world affairs. "The Might of Nations" aims to provide breadth and depth of coverage, tracing world politics since 1945 to explain the current world political climate. This extensively revised jubilee tenth edition is a new book for a new world. The advance of democracy and the retreat of dictatorship in world politics is explored throughout the text, highlighted by new material on the end of the Cold War and the collapse of soviet communism (ch.3). Chapter 4 has been extensively revised, featuring new material on the liquidation of Western colonialism and the dismantling of Apartheid in South Africa. There is new coverage of the war in the Persian Gulf (ch.6) and the resurgence of the United Nations (chs.10 &12), and a strong chapter on the economic struggle for power features new material on the economic struggle between Japan and the U.S. (ch.7). The process of economic unification in Western Europe is also covered.
