Inis L. Claude, Jr., is one of the twentieth century's most interesting and important scholars of international relations and organization. A wide-ranging, nuanced, and discerning thinker, Claude remains worthy of continued attention, as Nejat Dogan compellingly argues in his important book. Dr. Dogan's thoughtful exploration of Claude and his 'pragmatic liberalism' constitute a valuable source for contemporary scholars and policy-makers. -- Robert J. Beck, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee An unyielding voice of careful reason and thought in a field of study typically fraught with conflict and dissension, Nejat Dogan is well-known as a leading scholar of international relations and world order... As Editor-in-Chief of the Comparative Civilizations Review, I am happy to draw scholarly attention to this book for its valuable insights... I call upon experts in international relations here and abroad to examine the ideas presented in this new work, as they help illuminate significant intellectual ground. -- Joseph Drew, Ph.D., Northern Virginia Center, University of Virginia Given the current events in world politics, a fresh look at theories has been needed in the study of international relations for some time. Dr. Dogan offers a new approach beyond Realism and Idealism. This book will be helpful to students, scholars, and policymakers alike. -- McCall Carter, JD, president, Ashburn Institute
