China-US Competition - Impact on Small and Middle Powers' Strategic Choices (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2023): Simona A. Grano,... China-US Competition - Impact on Small and Middle Powers' Strategic Choices (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2023)

R1,584 Discovery Miles 15 840 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This open access edited book brings together a closer examination of European and Asian responses to the escalating rivalry between the US and China. As the new Cold War has surfaced as a perceivable reality in the post-COVID era, the topic itself is of great importance to policymakers, academic researchers, and the interested public. Furthermore, this manuscript makes a valuable contribution to an under-studied and increasingly important phenomenon in international relations: the impact of the growing strategic competition between the United States and China on third parties, such as small and middle powers in the two arguably most affected regions of the world: Europe and East Asia. The European side has been under-studied and explicitly comparative work on Europe and East Asia is extremely rare. Given that the manuscript focuses heavily on recent developments-and because many of these developments have been quite dramatic-there are very few publications that cover the same topics.

Environmental Governance in Taiwan - A New Generation of Activists and Stakeholders (Paperback): Simona A. Grano Environmental Governance in Taiwan - A New Generation of Activists and Stakeholders (Paperback)
Simona A. Grano
R1,471 Discovery Miles 14 710 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Three decades of rapid industrialization until the lifting of martial law in 1987, with little or no concern for the environment, have made Taiwan's environmental degradation a serious problem. In the past twenty years, Taiwan has seen a surge of environmental organizations, which to a certain degree have enjoyed a remarkable success in fighting polluting industries or affecting policies on behalf of the environment. This book aims to analyse environmental governance mechanisms and actors in Taiwan through a multi-disciplinary research approach. Based on extensive and original research, it includes four different case studies, which have all taken place since 2011. It focuses on four major elements of governance - specifically norms, actors, processes, and outcomes - to examine Taiwan's national and local environmental governance in the post-2008 period. The book shows how the painful lessons Taiwan has learned throughout its transition should be of interest to other developing countries, illustrating how these positive transformations have managed to bring about a more ecologically friendly mode of economic development. Demonstrating that the battle to further ecological sustainability is also a battle to further democratisation, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Taiwan Studies, Developmental Studies and Environmental Studies.
