Russia, China and the Revisionist Assault on the Western Liberal International Order

Meer over het boek

The book examines the rise of revisionism in Russia and China as a response to the perceived threats posed by the US-led post-Cold War liberal international order. It introduces a neoclassical realist framework to understand how states become revisionist when their security needs are compromised. The analysis highlights the transition from strategic accommodation in the 1990s to constructive and destructive revisionism by the late 2000s. The author advocates for a neo-containment policy to address the challenges posed by both nations to the existing international order.
