Textul de pe ultima copertă

The Future of Global Affairs is an exciting and balanced contribution to the debate about the potential trajectory of a world in flux. Tinged more with concern than utopian optimism, this volume captures a panoramic view of our cacophonous and disorderly world that is on the verge of disequilibrium and potential destruction unless key political actors, institutions, and processes can find a way to adapt global affairs to an increasingly plurilateral and intermestic era. A must-read for serious IR scholars; written in a way that is understandable to the lay person.
 W. Andy Knight, PhD, FRSC, University of Alberta
Inspired by urgent questions, this simultaneously illuminating and profoundly unsettling book traces the contours of the ascendant geopolitics, illustrating how one class of events can have contrasting resonances and implications in Washington, Lima, Lagos, or Luang Prabang. Each chapter explores a different facet ofglobal affairs, offering perspectives that, though not rosy, serious students of world politics will do well to take to heart.

Caracteristici

Explores agency beyond the nation state in Global Affairs, focusing on the role of coalitions, alliances and international organizations Imagines the future of Global Affairs in a much more fluid and often confusing environment where rules are re-written on a regular basis Focuses on the major threats the world will continue to face: from terrorism, to climate change, to cyber and energy, and how well-positioned (or not) we are to address them
