How do we understand international relations in a globalized world? This clear and concise text takes as its starting point the theoretical frameworks that are the foundation of current IR. Joyce Kaufman explains the traditional theories, but also makes a place for understanding the areas that lie outside of or cannot be explained by those approaches. Although levels of analysis are the primary unifying force, the book also assesses what this approach does not explain about the contemporary international system. Integrated throughout are applications of the theories so that students can understand that learning the theories will actually help them better understand the "real world." That, in turn, will also help them make decisions about issues pertaining to current international events. An excellent alternative to most of the current introductory level texts, Kaufman's level of analysis approach provides students with a more inclusive understanding of international politics by not forcing them to choose between competing theories, but allowing them to understand the world in the complex manner of multiple actors in multiple issues.
In a refreshing approach to IR, it provides students with the basic tools to employ in understanding the world around them while not limiting them to one perspective.
