liberalism, constructivism, postmodernism, gender, globalization,
neo-Marxism, modernization and development theory,
environmentalism, anarchism, and queer theory. A new chapter
focused on global LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans) theory
and queer theory, Hillary Clinton's policy myth that "gay rights
are human rights and human rights are gay rights," and the film
Love is Strange. Innovative use of narrative from films that
students will be familiar with: Lord of the Flies, Independence
Day, Wag the Dog, Fatal Attraction, The Truman Show, East Is East,
Memento, WALL-E, The Hunger Games, and Love is Strange. An
accessible and exciting writing style, boxed key concepts, and

film covered in the textbook, additional workshop and seminar
exercises, slides to accompany each lecture, and an extensive bank

unravel the complexities of international relations theory in a way
that gives students a clearer idea of how the theories work, and of
the myths associated with them.
