Asserting that Complexity Thinking (CT) provides a much-needed lens for interpreting these challenges, the contributors offer a parallel assessment of the impact of CT to anthropocentric and non-anthropocentric (post-human) International Relations. Using this perspective, the result should be less surprise when confronting the dynamism of a fragile and unpredictable global life.","brand":"State University of New York Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47154699272432,"sku":"9781438456096","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781438456096_p0.jpg?v=1763756390","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781438456096","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
