Politics, Security and Development in Small States

Politics, Security and Development in Small States Synopsis

First published in 1987, Politics, Security and Development in Small States analyses the crisis facing small states in the international political system at the time. Incorporating general theoretical statements, case-studies, academic reflection, and policy prescription, it ranges widely in terms of disciplinary perspectives and geographical coverage. As an authoritative and timely survey of an international political issue brought sharply into focus by the U.S. invasion of Grenada in late 1983, this book will interest students and researchers of social sciences and those involved in the practical problems of small states: politicians, officials, bankers, diplomats, and journalists.
