Introduction to Politics reflects the realities of contemporary global politics by bringing together the theory, comparative politics and international relations content that students need, and contextualising this material with a wide range of international examples. It also brings together three authors, experts in their fields, each writing one section. The material is explored in an accessible way for introductory study, but encourages more critical study and debate, which is vital for anybody embarking on a politics degree. The authors take a balanced approach to the subject, which will serve as a strong foundation for further study.
Introduction to Politics is accompanied by an innovative Online Resource Centre, which includes:
For students:
Multiple choice questions
Expanded case studies from the book with embedded video links to relevant news articles, web video and research
Flashcard glossary
Further information on key thinkers
Web links
