International Relations is a dynamic discipline, evolving in response to contemporary world politics. An Introduction to International Relations offers a foundational explanation of the theories, systems, actors and events that shape external relations between nations in today's global society. This edition retains the existing structure, grouping chapters on theories, international history and the 'traditional' and 'new' agendas, while acknowledging that these exist alongside one another and intersect in complex ways. The text has been comprehensively updated and includes new chapters on postcolonialism, the international politics of cyberspace, global public health and the futures of International Relations. New postcard boxes and case studies present contemporary examples of international relations in action, and discussion questions at the end of every chapter promote student engagement. Written by an author team of leading academics from Australia, New Zealand and around the world, An Introduction to International Relations remains a fundamental guide for students of international relations.

This edited volume provides a convenient entry point to the cutting-edge field of the international politics of technology, in an interesting and informative manner. Technology and World Politics introduces its readers to different approaches to technology in global politics through a survey of emerging fusions of Science and Technology Studies and International Relations. The theoretical approaches to the subject include the Social Construction of Technology, Actor-Network Theory, the Critical Theory of Technology, and New Materialist and Posthumanist approaches. Considering how such theoretical approaches can be used to analyse concrete political issues such as the politics of nuclear weapons, Internet governance, shipping containers, the revolution in military affairs, space technologies, and the geopolitics of the Anthropocene, the volume stresses the socially constructed and inherently political nature of technological objects.Providing the theoretical background to approach the politics of technology in a sophisticated manner alongside a glossary and guide to further reading for newcomers, this volume is a vital resource for both students and scholars focusing on politics and international relations.

Bringing together a diverse list of contributors from Europe, Australia and North America, this book challenges conventional wisdom about utopian thinking in International Relations. The volume demonstrates how utopian thinking has shaped a range of IR theories through its resolutely realistic focus on pressing political crises. This essential collection shows utopia's empirical significance in world politics by offering fresh perspectives on revolutionary movements, racial imaginaries, technocratic expertise and global climate change, among other issues. It is a vital intervention that reshapes disciplinary understanding and establishes new research directions for scholars examining the pasts and futures of world politics.
