International Politics

International Politics refers to the study and practice of political relations and interactions between sovereign states and other global actors, such as international organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and multinational corporations. It encompasses various aspects of diplomacy, conflict, cooperation, treaties, and international law. The field examines how countries interact on issues such as security, trade, human rights, and environmental challenges, and how these interactions affect global governance and international stability. International politics also includes the analysis of power dynamics, ideologies, and interests that drive state behavior on the world stage. It is intersected by various disciplines including political science, economics, sociology, and cultural studies, indicating the complexity of relationships among nations and the influence of global events on domestic politics. Overall, international politics seeks to understand global issues that transcend national borders and the mechanisms through which states collaborate and confront one another in the pursuit of their national interests.
