«'In this new edition, Ian Hurd again gives an extremely well-balanced and nuanced picture of the power and limits, the benefits and deficiencies, of international organizations in world politics. My students enjoy being introduced to IOs with this book.' Gisela Hirschmann, Assistant Professor of International Relations, Institute for Political Science, Leiden University»
«'Hurd's textbook seamlessly integrates the law and politics of international organizations. Combining theory with many real-world examples of different IOs in action, he offers an ideal introduction to the field for students in multiple disciplines. By viewing IOs as actors, fora, and resources, he demonstrates their multiple roles - and the challenges they face - in global affairs today.' Steven R. Ratner, Bruno Simma Collegiate Professor of Law, University of Michigan Law School»
