Features: A Concise Introduction to International Politics is a scholarly monograph by Dr. Qin Zhilai. Although it draws material from my Western International Politics: History and Theory written at Harvard, this book actually has significant original contributions, reflecting considerable effort and meticulous reconstruction by the compiler. If the main work of my earlier book was to provide an early yet preliminary outline of the development of Western international politics since its inception, then Dr. Qin's effort is aimed at general readers, especially university students, using vivid language and clear structure to systematize the original complex syllabus. Selection and guidance are important tasks for professionals in the new era. In this sense, A Concise Introduction to International Politics holds unique value: it is not only rich in material, comprehensive, systematic, and well-structured, but also easy to understand, with questions and answers, making it an excellent textbook.
