Recenzje

“[This] newly published volume […] breaks away from […] a great power-centered perspective. […] The goal of this volume is to reveal how middle powers’ interests have converged in forging new minilateral and multilateral platforms while attempting to offset the risk of hard power balancing between great powers. […] As the idea of ‘multilateralism 2.0’ indicates, new regional actors and new domains of engagement emerge, constituting a network, instead of an inflexible format of treaty-based alliances. This volume contributes by revealing various types of alignments in the region from the perspectives of both great powers and marginalized players, which allows readers to grasp a holistic understanding in the making of the Indo-Pacific. Thus, this volume will be worthy of exploration by all scholars, policymakers, and even students who hope to enhance their understanding of the current dynamics of multilateralism in the Indo-Pacific.”
