1. 21. Reinventing the Middle Kingdom : A case study of Chinese spread of authoritarianism through International Organizations

   Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för statsvetenskap (ST)

   Nyckelord :ASEAN; Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank; authoritarianism; Belt and Road Initiative; China; democracy; democratization; democratic backsliding; international organizations; liberalism; one-China Policy; realism; rational actor theory;

   Sammanfattning : The liberal theory of international relations primarily associates international cooperation with liberal democratic states, to the point that a theory of scholars Poast and Urpelainen claim that international cooperation with consolidated democracies through international organizations may boost the democratization of or at least prevent democratic backsliding in non-consolidated democracies. This paper investigates the possibility of decoupling these theories from democracies and democratizing by examining whether Chinese efforts within the framework of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and the Belt and Road foreign policy project have a similar but reverse effect on its target states, prompting developments in authoritarian directions.

7. 25. Conflict in Central Asia - A Soviet Affair

   Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Författare :Hugo Axelsson; [2022]
