About this title

Synopsis

Building upon a classic text, this third edition is a thorough revision that reviews and analyses the implications of the end of the Cold War, the collapse of communism, and the break-up of the Soviet Union. Surveying the evolution of the international system from the seventeenth century to the present, the authors show how a twentieth-century diplomatic revolution has altered the international landscape.
