D'Anieri's "International Politics: Power and Purpose in Global Affairs," 6th Edition, helps you make the connection between academic theories and real-world issues and events. Presenting international politics as a series of intellectual puzzles, the text emphasizes the importance of examining problems from multiple perspectives. The text combines explanations with illustrative examples from history and current events. Its unique focus on power and purpose involves both the goals that actors have in international politics and the resources to achieve them. Up-to-date discussions cover populism, trade wars, drone warfare, global climate issues, the impact of social media, U.S.-China trade conflict and much more. Thought-provoking case studies and features on history, policy and geography let you see the world from numerous perspectives while sharpening your critical thinking skills.

Paul D'Anieri, a professor of political science at the University of California, Riverside, has taught international politics for over 25 years. His research focuses on foreign policy in the post-Soviet states -- especially on Ukraine-Russia relations. Dr. D'Anieri's most recent book is UKRAINE AND RUSSIA: FROM CIVILIZED DIVORCE TO UNCIVIL WAR (Cambridge University Press, 2020). He is also the author of ECONOMIC INTERDEPENDENCE IN UKRAINIAN-RUSSIAN RELATIONS; UNDERSTANDING UKRAINIAN POLITICS: POWER, POLITICS, AND INSTITUTIONAL DESIGN; and POLITICS AND SOCIETY IN UKRAINE. In addition, his articles have appeared in numerous academic journals and books on Eastern European politics. He received his Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1991.
