"The authors' carefully crafted analysis will influence thought and
the policy debate on the tradeoff between unilateralism and
multilateralism for decades to come."
-Todd Sandler, Robert R. and Katheryn A. Dockson Professor of
International Relations & Economics, University of Southern
California
"Boyer and Bobrow's well-written, data-rich analysis of such
pressing issues as development assistance, debt management, UN
peacekeeping, and environmental protection makes "Defensive
Internationalism" a highly original and provocative contribution to
the study of global governance."
-Yale H. Ferguson, Co-Director, Center for Global Change and
Governance, Rutgers University
In this pathbreaking study, authors Davis B. Bobrow and Mark A.
Boyer argue for "muted optimism" about the future of international
cooperation. Leaders of a growing movement that integrates
constructivism into traditional international studies concepts and
methods, Bobrow and Boyer analyze four key international issues:
development cooperation, debt management, peacekeeping operations,
and environmental affairs. Their approach integrates elements of
public goods theory, identity theory, new institutionalism, and
rational choice. "Defensive Internationalism" is a well-written,
creative and coherent synthesis of ideas that have up to now been
considered irreconcilable. It is appropriate for upper-level
undergraduate and graduate students in international relations,
conflict studies, and political economy, and promises to become a
foundational work in its field.
Davis B. Bobrow is Professor of Public and International Affairs
and Political Science at the University of Pittsburgh.
Mark A. Boyer is Professor of Political Science at the
University of Connecticut.
