The emergence of new powers fundamentally questions the traditional
views on international relations, multilateralism or security as a
range of countries now competes for regional and global leadership
- economically, politically, technologically and militarily. As the
focus of international attention shifts from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, the European states in particular are seen to lose
influence relative to the emerging economic powerhouses of China,
Russia, India and Brazil. European nations find themselves too
small to engage meaningfully with these continent-sized powers and,
in an increasingly multipolar world are concerned their influence
can only continue to decline. This book analyses the shifts in the
structure of global power and examines the threats and
opportunities they bring to Europe. Leading European Contributors
reflect on how the EU can utilise collective strength to engage and
compete with rapidly developing nations. They examine perceptions
of the EU among the emerging powers and the true meaning and nature
of any strategic partnerships negotiated. Finally they explore the
shape and structure of the international system in the 21st century
and how the EU can contribute to and shape it.
