About this ebook

The current book, “Contemporary International Relations. Great Power Politics. Theory and Practice,” is a series of lectures based on the author's large-scale scholarly research called Mirology. Through years of work, Battler has developed a comprehensive categorial and conceptual framework for understanding World and International Relations (WIR). 

This lecture course offers a unique approach that sets it apart from similar works. The author draws conclusions and inferences from the linking theory and practice, resulting in a fresh perspective on evaluating the foreign and domestic policies of the United States, China, Japan, and Russia. The lectures are primarily intended for experts and tutors in politics, security, economics, foreign affairs, and journalism. They are also for those curious and wanting to expand their knowledge about the world.
