Samuel Schlichting: Balancing Structural Power, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Great power politics has returned to the global stage. It leads to complex balancing games among the leading countries of the world, not only in terms of military power, but also with regard to resources, productive capacities, infrastructure and narratives. For Eurasia, China's phenomenal rise is a political game changer. Against the background of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and China's ever-increasing presence in the former post-Soviet region of Central Asia, this book develops the concept of Structural Power to adopt International Relations theory to the empirical reality of great power politics in the early 21st century.
