This book addresses the importance of the status dimension of
major powers, the potential for status competition between them,
and the aspirations of regional powers to become major global
powers. The authors propose a new method of assessing the extent to
which both major global powers and regional powers are attributed
status, whether or not such status attribution results in status
underachievement or overachievement (status inconsistency), and
through a variety of cases, explore the consequences of status
inconsistencies for international politics. The foundational
chapters are supplemented with chapters focusing on individual
cases that demonstrate the status concerns of both major global
powers and key regional powers.

what educational topics they feel directors most need to fulfil
their duties. A co-operative feasibility study guide is also
outlined with a focus on the co-operative business development
process.
