   978-0190655532The globe is evolving into an increasingly compact domain–through global integration, finance and economics, technology, media, and the various global issues that transcend boundaries. As a consequence, undergraduates studying Global Diplomacy and International Relations require a more integrated, applied, and pragmatic approach for comprehending the world around them. In Global Diplomacy: Applying Theory to a Complex Universe, writers Mark Boyer, Natalie Hudson, and Michael Butler have formulated an approach to the subject that incorporates historical context as needed in the discourse of global issues and merges the mainstream theoretical perspectives within each section to provide students with a diverse and critical method to comprehend and evaluate what is unfolding in the globe today.

   Global Diplomacy encompasses all the traditional subjects in the college-level International Relations/Global Diplomacy curriculum, and also offers more comprehensive coverage of global ecology; gender and race; the various security challenges of our era that exceed traditional warfare; IPE coverage that emphasizes the contrasting trajectories of the Global North and South; and the growing dependence on international law, international entities, and global and regional governance. Through a familiar structure and topic emphasis, the authors have devised a compelling narrative and characteristics to engage students who are both “worldly” and “inexperienced” simultaneously.
