Description
This excerpt from the book discusses how regional powers, such as China and Russia, are important players in global politics. It also discusses how these powers influence other regional powers, as well as the global system.
We assume that ideas, interests and strategies of regional powers are highly significant variables that influence their foreign policies. This volume explains how ideas, interests and strategies of regional powers shape regional and global politics. While comparative research projects involving OECD-countries are by now fairly common, comparative research integrating developing regions is still the exception. This is despite the fact that the countries concerned are seen to be among the key actors of the 21st century. This collection emphasises the role of regional powers in intra-regional, interregional and global contexts. Specific questions concerning the rise of regional powers are analysed from a comparative perspective.
