The Evolution of World Politics

This week has two purposes. One is to establish a historical foundation for our analysis of international relations that emphasizes the themes and events you will encounter repeatedly in this book.

Second, this chapter sketches the evolution of the current, rapidly evolving world political system. The concept of an international system represents the notion that (1) the world is more than just the sum of its parts, such as countries, (2) that world politics is more than just the sum of the individual interactions among those parts, and (3) that there are general patterns of interactions among the system’s actors. The nature of the international system and its impact on world politics are further explored in chapter 3.
