Full Description
Dynamics of the Changing Global Security Order: Emerging Trends and Key Issues in Asia
presents knowledge, insights and understanding of why and how the US-led unipolar world order is shifting more in a multipolar direction. It demonstrates the influence of power contests involving economic and military weaponry on this new development. It reveals the impact this transformation will have on international security (and the challenges, crises and risks that humanity faces).This volume systematically explores its hypothesis through newly evolving theoretical positions - such as geoeconomics; socio-economic-political and cultural implications; tensions at the national, regional, and global levels; as well as debates, trends, policies, practices, and examples concerning power and international relations praxis.
