  • SHIFT OF POWER
    • It has been argued that power has shifted from military to economic power
      • Due to ECONOMIC GLOBALISATION
      • E.g. Economic sanctions placed on Russia following their invasion of the UKRAINE
        • No military force- kicked out of G8
      • NEOLIBERALS argue TRADE LINS has made war more COSTLY & LESS LIKELY
    • 2nd shift: HARD POWER TO SOFT POWER
      • Soft power is the ability to shape preferences of others
      • Soft power can be achieved through CULTURE, POLITICAL BELIEFS & FOREIGN POLICIES
        • Soft power is the ability to shape preferences of others
        • Due to the RISE of CULTURAL GLOBALISATION
          • ARAB SPRING- spread of media- spreading democracy
      • E.g. Blair & Bush- sycaphancy
      • MANAGES RELATIONSHIPS & CHARISMA
