Books in the Routledge Studies on Challenges, Crises and Dissent in World Politics series

This book examines China's efforts to multi-polarize - and hence potentially de-liberalize - the international system from a local perspective and then applies these insights to Beijing's current global agency in the context of the Belt and Road Initiative.

Bringing together a team of cutting-edge researchers based in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Indo-Pacific countries, this book focuses on the tug of war between China's influence and forces of resistance in Hong Kong, Taiwan and selected countries in the surrounding jurisdictions.

This edited volume bridges the "analytical divide" between studies of transatlantic relations, democratic peace theory, and foreign policy analysis and improves our theoretical understanding of the logic of crises prevention and resolution.

This book brings together various fields in the humanities and social sciences to propose a renewed analysis of policy transfer and norm circulation by offering cross-regional case studies and providing both a comprehensive and innovative understanding of policy transfer.

This book examines the characteristics and evolutionary dynamics of violent non-state actors, developing an autonomy, representation and influence framework to provide a comparative analysis of the late 19th/early 20th centuries Anarchist movement and the modern-day Jihadist network. With its longitudinal analysis, it also considers the role VNSAs may play in current and future global politics.

This volume systematically and comparatively analyses the reasons for regional integration and stalemate in European, Latin American and Asian regional integration. It examines whether regional integration systems change in crisis periods, or more precisely in periods of economic crises, and why they change in different directions. Based on a neo-institutionalist research framework and rigorously comparative research design, this text will be of key interest to scholars, students and policy specialists in regional integration, European Politics, International Relations, and Latin American and Asian studies.

Analysing apologies from Germany, Belgium, Britain and Italy, this book explores the shifting ways in which these countries represent their colonial pasts and investigates what this reveals about contemporary international politics, particularly relations between (former) coloniser and colonised. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of peace and post-conflict resolution studies, memory studies, colonial studies and postcolonial theory. More broadly, it will be of interest to those studying political science, International Relations, sociology and development.
