The 21st Century: The World Without Russia |
Any reader with an interest in geopolitics, Russia, or the balance of power in the world can’t pass up author Alex Battler’s bold new book. Battler uses a comprehensive approach to determine Russia’s real place and role in international relations. His book contains original formulations of several laws that operate in the geostrategic sphere, such as pole, center of power, and power. For the first time ever, a scholar attempts to determine the optimal proportions between GDP, the national budget, and what Battler calls a country’s foreign policy potential—allowing a state to formulate its national interest in a realistic manner. Also for the first time, the Western reader is made familiar with Moscow’s official foreign policy doctrines and with the views of a wide range of Russian scholars on international relations as well as Russia’s place and role in the world. The book shows, in a decisive manner, that Russia’s place in international relations will give way to China as the United States’ counterpoint in a new bipolar world order. |
