Cultural diversity, because it is perceived to have significant security, developmental, and social implications, is fast becoming one of the major political issues of the day. At the international level, it overlaps with the now extensive debates on multiculturalism within states. This work shows how cultural diversity challenges the understanding of international relations as relations between states and, by looking at the issue through the magnifying glass of an international organization, offers innovative insights into the interplay between various levels of international society. The book examines in particular the role of UNESCO, the only United Nations agency responsible for culture and the main forum for international diplomacy on the issue of cultural diversity.

Bringing Religion into International Relations examines the role religion plays in international relations as well as why this role has been ignored now by international relations theorists. The basic argument is that while religion is not the driving force in world politics, international relations can not be understood without taking religion into account. There are a number of transnational religious phenomena including religious fundamentalism and religious terrorism. Also, many transnational issues like human rights and population control have religious components. The book argues that these manifestations of religion , as well as others, need to be incorporated into our understanding of international relations. It also examines Huntington's Clash of Civilization that touches directly upon the role of religion in current world politics, and the authors apply their insights to the Israeli Palestinian conflict.
