Books by Robin Theobald

This clearly-written and comprehensive introductory text provides a critical review of the principal theoretical approaches to the study of Third World politics in the second half of the twentieth century.

This text introduces the reader to a sociological perspective on industrial society, aimed at students (both within and outside the social sciences) who seek a general understanding of the social consequences of economic change.

Corruption, for most of us, almost immediately evokes images of the third world especially countries like Nigeria, Mexico and India. Despite such widely-held views there is very little hard evidence on the actual extent of corruption in any country.
