Perspectives on International Relations: Power, Institutions, and Ideas

Henry R. Nauâ€™s bestselling bookÂ PerspectivesÂ on International RelationsÂ is admired for its even-handed presentation of realism, liberalism, constructivism, and critical theoryâ€”and for expertly applying those perspectives in every chapter. Students focus on the ways the different perspectives shape our understanding of the root causes of historical events and current controversies in world affairs, and learnÂ to think critically about the worldâ€™s most urgent issues. In the new fifth edition, updates include the rise of ISIS, new developments in Russia, China and the Middle East, ongoing environmental concerns and more. Instructors will find a new "primer" for students on how to learn to identify the perspectives and levels of analysis in the introduction and chapter one.
