{"product_id":"middle-powers-in-asia-and-giampiero-giacomello-9781793605665","title":"Middle Powers in Asia and Europe in the 21st Century","description":"This volume presents three claims regarding the role of middle powers in the 21st Century: first, states aspiring to become or remain middle powers choose from three possible role: to be a global middle powers; to be a regional pivot; or to be a niche leader. Second, states seeking such roles need different mixes of hard and soft power sources. Third, more so than great or small powers, middle powers walk a thin line between the domestic and systemic pressures they face. In this volume, these claims are based on (comparative) case studies of Germany, Iran, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Giampiero Giacomello\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1793605661\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781793605665\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Giampiero Giacomello","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993241747711,"sku":"9781793605665","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a0d64ff7-9e51-4741-9139-71568056bf1a.jpg?v=1683323298","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/middle-powers-in-asia-and-giampiero-giacomello-9781793605665","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
