Taming the sovereigns : institutional change in international politics /

Kalevi Holsti asks what do we mean by change in international politics? How do we identify it? How do we distinguish between significant and unimportant changes? Do we really live in a new era or do we see more continuity than transformation in the texture of international politics?
