Conflict among nations for forty-five years after World War II was dominated by the major bipolar struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union. With the end of the Cold War; states in differing legions of the world are taking their affairs more into their own hands and working out new arrangements for security that best suit their needs. This trend toward new "regional orders" is the subject of this book, which seeks both to document the emergence and strengthening of these new regional arrangements and to show how international relations theory needs to be modified to take adequate account of their salience in the world today. Rather than treat international politics as everywhere the same, or each region as unique, this hook adopts a comparative approach. It recognizes that, while regions vary widely in their characteristics, comparative analysis requires a common typology and set of causal variables. It presents theories of regional order that both generalize about regions and predict different patterns of conflict and cooperation from their individual traits. The editors conclude that, in the new world of regional orders, the quest for universal principles of foreign policy by great powers like the United States is chimerical and dangerous. Regional orders differ, and policy artist accommodate these differences if it is to succeed. Contributors are Brian L. Job, Edmund J. Keller, Yuen Foong Khong, David A. Lake, Steven E. Lobell, David R. Mares, Patrick M. Nlotgan. Paul A. Papayoanou, David J. Pervin, Philip G. Roeder, Richard Rosecrance and Peter Schott, Susan Shirk, Etel Solingen, and Arthur A. Stein.

Good. x, 406 pages. Figures. Footnotes. Table. References. Index. The cover has minor wear and soiling. The book has many passages marked and/or underlined. This was a project of the University of California Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation. David A. Lake (born 10 August 1956) is an American political scientist. He is the Gerri-Ann and Gary E. Jacobs Professor of Social Sciences and Distinguished Professor of Political Science at the University of California, San Diego. He is known for his contributions to International Relations and International Political Economy. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2006. He has been President of the International Studies Association and the American Political Science Association. He received his Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1984. Patrick M. Morgan was a widely respected international security scholar who specialized in the study of international conflict, deterrence, regional security, US-European relations, alliances and multilateralism, and East Asian security affairs. Throughout a long career in teaching, research, public lectures, and engagement with public officials, Pat was interested in finding ways to prevent the outbreak of violent conflict. His first job in the profession was in the political science department at Washington State University. He remained there for 24 years. In 1991, he took up the Tierney Chair in Peace and Conflict Studies at the University of California Irvine, where he later co-founded and directed the Global Peace and Conflict Studies program. He retired from UC Irvine in 2014. Conflict among nations for forty-five years after World War II was dominated by the major bipolar struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union.
