商品描述
Over the past decade, the international political system has come to be characterized as a Great Power Competition in which multiple would-be hegemons compete for power and influence. Instead of a global climate of unchallenged United States dominance, revisionist powers, notably China and Russia alongside other regional powers, are vying for dominance through political, military, and economic means. A critical battleground in the Great Power Competition is the Middle East, the Horn of Africa, and the Central Asia South Asia (CASA), also known as the Central Region.
With the planned withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Afghanistan, the U.S. has stated its intention of shifting attention away from the CASA Region in favor of a more isolationist foreign policy approach. This book provides an in-depth understanding of the implications for this shift related to regional diplomacy & politics, economic opportunities & rivalries, security considerations & interests, and the information environment. Amplifying the vital importance of success in the Central Region to U.S. prosperity and security, this volume advances dialogue in identifying key issues for stakeholders within and beyond the Central Region to gain a holistic perspective that better informs decision-making at various levels.
This collection of work comes from scholars, strategic thinkers, and subject matter experts who participated in the Great Power Competition Conference hosted by the University of South Florida, in partnership with the National Defense University Near East South Asia Center for Strategic Strategies in January 2020.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
在過去十年中,國際政治體系被描述為大國競爭(Great Power Competition),多個有意成為霸權的國家在此競爭權力和影響力。與其說是美國無可挑戰的主導地位的全球氣候,不如說是修正主義國家,特別是中國和俄羅斯以及其他地區強國,透過政治、軍事和經濟手段爭奪主導地位。大國競爭的一個關鍵戰場是中東、非洲之角以及中亞南亞(CASA),也被稱為中央地區。
隨著美國計劃從阿富汗撤回軍事力量,美國已表明其意圖將注意力從CASA地區轉向更具孤立主義的外交政策。這本書深入探討了這一轉變對地區外交與政治、經濟機會與競爭、安全考量與利益以及信息環境的影響。強調中央地區的成功對美國繁榮與安全的重要性,本書促進了對話,以識別中央地區內外利益相關者的關鍵問題,從而獲得更全面的視角,為各級決策提供更好的資訊。
這本作品集來自於參加2020年1月由南佛羅里達大學主辦、與國防大學近東南亞戰略中心合作的“大國競爭會議”的學者、戰略思想家和主題專家。
