The intermestic dimension in relations with Indo-Pacific (democratic) countries
Competition between the great powers for global supremacy is leading to the formation of blocs within the world economy, and an exacerbation of geopolitical tensions in the fields of trade, diplomacy and security.
The changing geopolitical landscape is a crucial external factor shaping foreign policy.
The webinar will explore the factors influencing foreign policy decisions in the English-speaking world towards, and between, the (democratic) countries of the Indo-Pacific through a multi-layered analysis based on this international-national nexus structure, while assessing the extent to which their engagement with the Indo-Pacific aligns with or reinforces their domestic democratic institutions.
The seminar will be in English.
