Bozeman maintains that political systems are grounded in cultures; thus, \u003cem\u003einternational \u003c\/em\u003erelations are by definition \u003cem\u003ehitercultural \u003c\/em\u003erelations. She deals exclusively with the thought patterns of the world's literate civilizations and societies between the fourth millenium B.C. and the fifteenth century A.D.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a substantial new introduction, Bozeman analyzes world politics over the last half century, showing how the interplay of politics and culture has intensified. She notes that the world's assembly of states is no longer held together by substantive accords on norms, purposes, and values, but by loose agreements on the use offorms, techniques, and words. The causes and effects of these changes between the 1950s and 1990s are assayed by Bozeman.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54237522461016,"sku":"9781138530300","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138530300.jpg?v=1777521616","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/politics-and-culture-in-international-history","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
