Summary: "Crossing Borders provides a framework for students built upon an understanding of the many borders that define the international system. Renowned authors Harry I. Chernotsky and Heidi H. Hobbs address many of the different fields that constitute international studies-geography, politics, economics, sociology, and anthropology-and give instructors a starting point from which they can pursue their own disciplinary interests. Not only do they develop a better understanding of the world, they also receive advice on how to increase their own global engagement through study abroad, internships, and career options. This Fourth Edition is thoroughly updated to reflect recent events and trends, including the COVID-19 pandemic; use of social media to interfere in elections; the role of China in trade, investment, and finance; and the tensions surrounding persistent racial and gender inequities around the world"--
