{"product_id":"foreign-policy-change-von-alina-alexandra-georgescu","title":"Foreign Policy Change","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter the end of the Cold War, scholars have  stressed the urgent need better to understand,  explain, anticipate and respond to foreign policy  change. Bipolarity has been replaced by a multipolar  balance of power, and small states have begun  enjoying much more liberty to decide about changing  their foreign policies. This work divides, for the  first time, Romanian foreign policy in the last half  a century into periods of continuity and change. It  demonstrates that Romanian foreign policy since the  late 1940s has followed a pattern that shifted from  dependence on the USSR to diversification, then  passed through isolation, shifting ultimately to  dependence on the West (the EU and NATO). Existing  studies of foreign policy change have mostly been  preoccupied with Western democratic states'' foreign  policies.  In contrast, this work adds value by  focusing on a specific state in Eastern Europe, an  area of small rather than dominant or hegemonic  states, that has moved closer to the centre of  scholarly debate in the context of enlargement  rounds of the EU.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838317953\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe case of Romania\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838317953","offer_id":39497116778589,"sku":"9783838317953","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/1d0388b0-5664-465b-a482-a01c30477dce.jpg?v=1772867068","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/foreign-policy-change-von-alina-alexandra-georgescu","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
