Publisher's Synopsis
Foreign Policies of the Great and Emerging Powers is concerned primarily with the changing structure of the balance of power operating in contemporary international politics and focuses upon assessing the policy intentions and power capabilities of key actors within such a structure.
One of the key objectives of this text is to evaluate the factors and national interests that underpin policy-making in the major powers. It also addresses fundamental issues in international relations theory: the concept of power; national interests; geopolitical and geoeconomic factors; and the factors that determine foreign policy decision-making.
