Product Review

The most widely adopted reader for international relations courses, Essential Readings in World Politics brings together a broad range of readings from classic and contemporary sources, following the organization of Karen Mingst's textbook. Over a quarter of the selections in this Second Edition are new, including articles focused on compelling recent themes in world politics, such as terrorism and interventionism. Structured largely in a point/counterpoint format to encourage class discussion and independent analysis, Essential Readings in World Politics is the perfect addition to any introductory course in international relations.
