Contending Images of World Politics - Softcover

This major new book provides a novel and interesting approach to the study of international relations. Taking as its starting point a range of influential recent perspectives on the changing world order (from Samuel P. Huntington's "clash of civilizations" between the West, and the rest to Francis Fukuyama's "end of history" thesis) the book brings together specially-commissioned chapters written in a highly accessible style by a truly international cast of contributors.
