Global Backlash NEW MILLENNIUM BOOKS IN INTERNATIONAL STUDIES Deborah J. Gemer, Series Editor NEW MILLENNIUM BOOKS issue out of the unique position of the global system at the end of the Cold War, the end of the twentieth century, and the beginning of a new millen nium in which our understandings about war, peace, identity, sovereignty, security, and sustainability-whether economic, environmental, or ethical-are likely to be challenged. In the new millennium of international relations, new theories, new actors, and new poli cies and processes are all bound to be engaged. Books in the series will be of three types: compact core texts, supplementary texts, and readers.
