"Everyone agrees that international studies should be interdisciplinary, but almost no one knows how to teach that on their own. An innovative collaboration between professors of anthropology, economics, geography, history, and political science, this book is fundamentally driven by the importance of interdisciplinary work. The combination of its overview chapters on all five of these disciplines as well as its comprehensive regional approach and contemporary focus on specific global issues should appeal to anyone teaching an introduction to international studies course." -- Scott Pegg, Director of International Studies Program, IUPUI "Finally! A book that gives me the courage to teach a genuinely interdisciplinary international studies course. Cross cutting disciplinary, geographic and policy issues, International Studies draws upon the authors' considerable experience to provide a holistic approach to analyzing the international arena. This book will be successful as a core text for an introductory class or as an addition to an upper level international studies course, ensuring that students appreciate the multiple lenses critical to understanding global problems." -- Patrice Franko, Colby College, Praise for prior editions: "Everyone agrees that international studies should be interdisciplinary, but almost no one knows how to teach that on their own.

Finally, we have a text that introduces students to the complexity of the global system through a multidisciplinary cross-regional approach to international studies. In and era of globalization, narrow disciplinary and regional methodologies and foci are insufficient. [The authors'] contribution fills an important methodological and heuristic void.

What is particularly important is the first five chapters that help define the disciplines from which International Studies draws. It also does an admirable job of touring students throughout the world. Many of my students cannot believe how much territory we have covered by the end of the semester." -- Christopher Scholl, California State University, Channel Islands " International Studies: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Global Issues stands out as a major contribution to the methodology of International Studies . . .
