Emphasizing the interconnected nature of history, geography, anthropology, economics, and political science, <em>International Studies</em> details the methodologies and subject matter of each discipline then applies these discipline lenses to seven regions: Europe; East Asia and the Pacific; South and Central Asia; sub-Saharan Africa; the Middle East and North Africa; Latin America; and North America. This disciplinary and regional combination provides an indispensable, cohesive framework for understanding global issues. The fully updated fourth edition includes four new global issues chapters: The Refugee Crisis in Europe; The Syrian Civil War and the Rise of the Islamic State; Global Climate Change; and The Globalization of Modern Sports.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>International Studies</i> does what textbooks in comparative and international politics too often fail to do adequately-explain big ideas while delivering the context and color to tickle the imagination and appreciate what is at a stake and why it matters. Chapters on the disciplines of history, politics, geography, anthropology, and economics provide the tools for effective social science thinking."--<b>Dylan Bennett, University of Wisconsin - Waukesha</b><br><br>"<i>International Studies</i> teaches students to think as historians, economists, anthropologists, political scientists and geographers, while guiding them through every major region in the world and a variety of key global issues. Its accessibility, breadth of coverage, and clarity of writing all make it an ideal choice for use in an introductory course."--<b>James R. Stocker, Trinity Washington University</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Sheldon Anderson, Miami University, USA</p><p>Mark Allen Peterson, Miami University, USA</p><p>Stanley W.
