Combining theory, comparative politics, and international relations, Introduction to Politics
provides a perfect introduction to the subject for students embarking
on university-level study. As the only introductory text to cover both
comparative politics and international relations, and contextualise
this material with a wide range of international examples, it is the
most comprehensive, authoritative, and global introductory
politics textbook on the market.Written by three experts in the
field, this book takes a balanced approached to the subject, serving as
a strong foundation for further study. The material is explored in an
accessible way for introductory study, but takes an analytical approach
which encourages more critical study and debate, helping students to
develop the vital skills they need for a politics degree. New to this edition A
new chapter on democracies, democratization, and authoritarian regimes
adds to the broad coverage of the volume, introducing students to
politics in both democratic and non-democratic systems.An increased number of 'key debate' boxes
encourages active learning and critical thinking, challenging students
to consider multiple perspectives.A reworked concluding chapter on 'Rising
powers in a post-globalization world' helps students to consider
contemporary and possible future developments in the political world.
