Vocabularies of International Relations after the Crisis in Ukraine (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Makarychev, Andrey; Yatsyk, Alexandra

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book analyses the conflict in Ukraine and Russia's annexation of Crimea, covering conceptualisations from rationalist to reflectivist, and from quantitative to qualitative. Most contributors agree that many of the old concepts, such as multi-polarity, spheres of influence, sovereignty, or even containment, are still cognitively valid, yet believe the eruption of the crisis means that they are now used in different contexts and thus infused with different meanings.
