Trends and Perspectives in International Politics

About the Book Series

Trends and Perspectives in International Politics is an innovative series of analytically sound, policy-relevant volumes. It offers a comprehensive exploration of international affairs, shedding light on areas such as the climate crisis, energy, migration and multilateral cooperation. It addresses these themes both at the global level as well as looking at specific world regions: among them (but not limited to), Europe and Eurasia, North Africa and the Middle East, the Transatlantic community, the Indo-Pacific as well as Sub-Saharan Africa.

The leading European think tank, Istituto Affari Internazionali (IAI), edits the series, reflecting its unique approach to research. Rooted in robust research projects, Trends and Perspectives in International Politics emphasises the policy implications of the analysis, making it a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers.

Trends and Perspectives in International Politics includes sole-authored, jointly authored and edited volumes, as well as shorter books in the “Routledge Focus” format. Under the editorial guidance of the Istituto Affari Internazionali, the series ensures engaging, authoritative insight into international politics.
