Features: To understand the rapidly changing international relations after the Cold War, International Relations is an excellent reference book. This book helps us deepen our understanding of the contemporary world. The contemporary world is built upon international law, with greater respect for rules and adherence to regulations. It is gradually shifting from relying on military power ("hard power") to economic influence ("soft power"). However, despite the author's cautious optimism about the future of humanity entering the 21st century, the book still warns of the potential for ongoing conflicts brought about by terrorism, separatism, fierce trade competition, ethnic conflicts, and the widening wealth gap and divisions.
