About This Book
Today's international news meets yesterday's world history!
The essential crash course that cuts through our complex world Why did the United States and Israel attack Iran? What drove Russia to invade Ukraine? Why are far-right movements gaining ground across the globe? International issues are often hard to grasp even for those who follow the news closely. Understanding current events requires rich background knowledge—not just what is happening now, but what came before. That is why international affairs is one of the most challenging subjects for young readers.
To guide these young readers through the world of international issues, historian Ku Wan-hoe and international affairs journalist Ku Jeong-eun have joined forces. Their book, Let Me Tell You About Today's International Issues, weaves current affairs and world history together like warp and weft, helping readers develop a well-rounded perspective on today's world.
The two authors have selected essential international issues that today's young readers must understand—from weighty political topics like war, refugees, and the climate crisis to fascinating social and cultural subjects such as gun violence, Brexit, and the global impact of BTS. Each issue is explored comprehensively alongside the world history knowledge needed to make sense of it. Written at a level accessible to young readers, the book goes beyond simply providing background information: it presents diverse viewpoints so that readers can develop their own analytical lens. After reading this book, your understanding of international news will be dramatically broader.
