Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Politics - International
Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, The
Australian National University (Research School of Pacific and
Asian Studies), 125 entries in the bibliography, language: English,
abstract: The following three essays are working papers on
different issues, like "The Rise of China," protectionism and the
understanding of the US being an empire or a hegemon. These have
been written during a research visit at the Research School of
Pacific and Asian Studies, Australian National University. While
the first essay on "The Rise of China" is concerned with the
relation of Australia and the US, which seems to be influenced by
the rising star of China, the second essay also talks about a very
topical issue of protectionism in a globalized or globalizing
world. The ongoing crisis of finance since the end of 2008 and the
following recession is challenging free trade and liberalism today.
In regard to "The Rise of China" the issue became more and more
important since Chinese companies seem to buy out the Australian
economy in 2009. Finally, the last essay is focused on the question
of how the United States should be understood in regard to its
foreign policy. Referring to the concepts of empire and hegemony,
the author introduces the two cases of ancient Athens and Sparta.
As Athens is seen as the ideal empire and Sparta is supposed to be
the ideal hegemon, the essay compares both Greek city-states and
their policies with the US foreign policies under Bush II and the
neocons.
