Zusatztext "A brilliant analysis of the major shift in the Eurasian balance of power! drawing on and fundamentally developing the concept of geoeconomics. Drawing on a formidable conceptual and historical armoury! this book is an essential study of the nascent Greater Eurasia." - Prof. Richard Sakwa! University of Kent "Glenn Diesen has given us a sophisticated and compelling analysis of Eurasian geoeconomics and geopolitics! and of Russia's central part in this region. If you want to know about this region and how it may develop! this is the book for you." - Prof. Graeme Gill! University of Sydney"This timely and thoughtful volume addresses a major and often neglected phenomenon in the current international system - the emergence of Greater Eurasia. Glenn Diesen's analysis challenges the mainstream Western paradigm! which tends to pose the European Union in the centre of political! economic and intellectual development of Eurasia?while being excessively pessimistic about any initiatives coming from non-Western powers. Despite Diesen's great optimism with regards to prospects of Greater Eurasia! his alternative view significantly enriches the debate that has by and large been confined to Eurocentrism in the recent years." - Prof. Alexander Lukin!
