Providing a geopolitical analysis of current global issues, the contributors to this book examine such dilemmas as boundary disputes, refugee flows, ecological degradation, and UN intervention in civil wars. They also assess the redefinition of international relations by instantaneous, worldwide financial and telecommunication linkages, and explore the struggles of new multinational and non-governmental organizations to define their roles when fundamental concepts such as the nation state are being challenged.
