Bone of contention in a globalized world / Zazhigayev, Boris   Journal Article
Zazhigayev, Boris Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract In the context of the twenty-first-century globalized world, Ukraine is destined to play a pivotal role as the junction of civilizations, precisely in the same manner the country did numerous times in the past. Such a role largely determines Ukraine's geopolitical status as a buffer territory, in which conflicts play out between branches of Christianity and European and Asian cultures. In the twenty-first century, controlling Ukrainian territory has become extremely critical. In contrast to past events, this control has acquired a new and far greater geopolitical significance.

Is Beijing's non-interference policy history: how Africa is changing China / Verhoeven, Harry   Journal Article
Verhoeven, Harry Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The rapid intensification of ties between the People's Republic of China (PRC) and Africa's 54 countries is of considerable geopolitical significance. It is impossible to understand how the PRC has sustained year-on-year breathtaking growth without factoring in the contribution of African commodity exports and the profits reaped by Chinese enterprises through African demand for consumer goods, construction projects, and information and communication technology services. An extensive literature analyses the China-Africa story: an initial shouting match pitted those who cast Beijing as leading the re-colonization of the continent1 against authors praising China as Africa's savior at a time when the West would only engage through the lens of the Global War on Terror and rock star-driven charity.2 In recent years, a more nuanced conversation has underscored historical dimensions to the China-Africa relationship, exploring change and continuity in Africa's place in the global political economy, and deconstructing the myth that all Chinese actors-such as PRC embassies, state-owned enterprises, private firms, and migrating individuals-share a unity of purpose, guided by a grand plan hatched by the Chinese Communist Party.3

PoK: the concept of enduring conflict / Dogra , Rajesh   Article
Dogra , Rajesh Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Throughout ancient times, the breathtakingly beautiful Valley of Kashmir has stood for peaceful contemplation, intellectual advancement and religious diversity co existing in an atmosphere of tolerance for the most part. In the modern geopolitical era, this same diversity, evident from the blend of Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism in this single state, has made it a center of warfare rather than cultural advancement.

Sri Lanka’s Increasing Geopolitical Significance for China and India: a Comparative Analysis of Foreign Relations / Fernando, Srimal   Journal Article
Fernando, Srimal Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Given its strategic setting in the Indian Ocean region, the nation of Sri Lanka has become very crucial to global and regional powers such as India and China. The external relations of Sri Lanka were based on a neoliberal discourse. Compared to Sri Lanka, the external relations of India were majorly based on realist theoretical perspective. Thus, given the regional influence of India and the close the historical ties and geographical proximity shared by India and Sri Lanka, the foreign policy of India heavily influences the Indo-Sri Lankan relations.
