International Relations by Parkash Chandar is a good book for developing the basic concepts but that's not the be-all and the end-all for this subject....read some extra material on America's Foreign Policy from some other book...from any foreign author;further, you should have an insight into the Foreign Policies of Major international players....to that effect,study the newspaper while keeping in mind various facets of the field of international relations....Memorise tha names of some reputed think tanks of the world and authenticate your own ideas by giving their reference in the paper....that'd do the trick necessary for obtaining max. marks in that paper....my friend got 77 marks by employing the same technique...

(thanx buddy i dont remember your name)

Salam,

I have this book named ' The penguin dictionay of International Relations" by Graham evans and Jeffrey Newnham. This is a comprehensive dictionary with a full coverage of major events, articles on political and philosophical concepts such as nationalist and just war, detailed description of key organizations, explanations of sepcialist term like zero-sum, and summaries of key developments since 1989. I think its a good source of info. One should really have this book in thier collection.

thanks and good luck to all of you.

Regards,

1. if I consult Globalization of world politics and Parkash Chandar, would it be enough

2. What topics to skip from Parkash chandar

3. Could you plz suggest some names of think tanks or websites of them, so that I can have some material about thier thinking
