Editorial Reviews

'This is a freshly updated edition of an already popular book, adding recent ideas like resilience and the Anthropocene to the established IR vocabulary. It manages to be clear and concise while covering each topic in sufficient detail as to offer an excellent guide to the discipline.'

Professor Jonathan Joseph, School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies, University of Bristol, UK.
