The Birth of Western-Centrism -- Power Shifts and the Rise of the Rest -- The Future of Soft Power -- Towards a Parallel Order : Finance, Trade and Investment -- Towards a Parallel Order : Security, Diplomacy and Infrastructure -- Post-Western World.
With the United States' superpower status rivalled by a rising China and emerging powers like India and Brazil playing a growing role in international affairs, the global balance of power is shifting. But what does this mean for the future of the international order? Will China dominate the 21st Century? Will the so-called BRICS prove to be a disruptive force in global affairs? Are we headed towards a world marked by frequent strife, or will the end of Western dominance make the world more peaceful?
