Scott makes an informed case for a global perspective on world
politics and a compelling plea for policies that will improve
chances for human survival. Because important evolutionary
processes -- particularly interdependence and technological advance
-- shape the global system, he argues that concepts used to study
these processes must also have an evolutionary component. Without
that, we will not be able to understand or manage our highly
interactive world.
