9 Understanding Globalization 471 "Universal Truths: Human Rights and the Westernizing Illusion" 477 PREFACE This reader is a quintessential collaborative effort between the two co-editors and Ann Marcy of W. W. Norton. In a flurry of e-mails during 2003, the co-editors suggested articles for inclusion, traced the sources, and rejected or ac-cepted them, defending choices to skeptical colleagues. It became apparent during the process that the co-editors, while both international relations schol-ars, read very different literatures.

10 This book represents a product of that collab-orative process and is all the better for the differences. The articles have been selected to meet several criteria. First, the collection is designed to augment and amplify the core Essentials of International Relations text (third edition) by Karen Mingst. The chapters in this book follow those in the text. Second, the selections are purposefully eclectic, that is, key theoretical articles are paired with contemporary pieces found in the popular literature. When possible articles have been chosen to reflect diverse theoretical perspec-tives and policy viewpoints.
