Power Politics in Transition

Beschreibung

This book examines how Europe’s political order is being reshaped by unprecedented challenges. Economic recession, inflation, climate-driven disasters, and migration pressures are intersecting with political instability and war. The Ukrainian war has disrupted long-standing security arrangements, ending Scandinavian neutrality and altering global power dynamics. Rising energy costs and public disillusionment further highlight the urgent question: Can Europe transform itself into a world power?
 
The volume provides a clear framework for understanding these shifts, drawing on contributions from leading scholars and regional experts. It explores domestic pressures, strategic realignments, and international perspectives from countries and regions such as the United States, Russia, India, Africa, and the Middle East. Ukraine and Poland are discussed as borderline states facing unique challenges. Insights from small yet significant states in the Baltic region, Norway, and the High North highlight the importance of strategic realignments.  With its coverage of security, economics, and diplomacy, this book offers essential insights into the changing balance of power in Europe and its implications for the future of democracy and global stability.
