Opis

We tend to think of ourselves as living in a time when nations, for the most part, obey the rule of law and where they certainly don t engage in the violent grabs for territory that have characterized so much of human history. But as Rob de Wijk shows in this book, power politics remains very much a force on the international scene. Offering analyses of such actions as Putin s annexation of the Crimea and China s attempts to claim large parts of the South China Sea, de Wijk explains why power politics never truly went away and why, as the West s position weakens, it s likely to play a bigger and bigger role on the global stage in the coming years.
