"This illuminating book explores the origins and politics of these new problem states and the policy choices available." — Foreign Affairs
"This book is an outstanding contribution to the development of 21st-century theories that account for the behavior of renegade states." — Choice
"“Nincic has produced an outstanding volume that takes deviance in world politics seriously.” -Millennium Book Review." — Isaac Kamola, Millenium Book Reviews
"[A] timely and important work." — The Review of Politics
"This is a marvelous book. Nincic places the field of international relations at an intellectual crossroads: the field can either come to terms with recent changes in world politics and one of the challenges of our time—managing renegade regimes whose actions challenge the majority's interests and values—or it can slide into policy irrelevance. A tour de force from one of the international relations field's more perceptive analysts." — Eric V. Larson, senior policy analyst, the Rand Corporation
"A new era requires new concepts. Nincic provides an innovative framework for analyzing new problems in a fundamentally transformed world. It is indispensable both for understanding contemporary security threats and for constructing policies to deal with them." — Jack S. Levy, Rutgers University, author of War in the Modern Great Power System, 1495-1975
