This comprehensive book delves into comparative regional integration, examining both intra-regional cooperation and the complex relations among regions in the context of power dynamics. While cooperation has been a central focus of integration studies, power has also played a significant role. The relevance of power is evident in the dynamics within the Eurozone, particularly between creditors and debtors. Similarly, integration in Asia cannot overlook the pivotal roles of China, Japan, and Korea, as well as the ongoing disputes surrounding Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the islands in the South China Sea.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis edited volume explores the multifaceted role of power in regional integration across three distinct contexts:\u003cbr\u003e1. The influence of hegemonic external actors, such as the United States and China, on regional integration.\u003cbr\u003e2. The roles of core states within regions, including Germany, China, Japan, and Brazil, in shaping regional integration.\u003cbr\u003e3. The contributions of noncore states, such as Italy and Greece in Europe, South Korea and Malaysia in Asia, and Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay, and Paraguay in Latin America, to regional integration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy examining these contexts, this book offers valuable insights for students and scholars of international relations and comparative political economy. It particularly appeals to those with an interest in integration studies and comparative regionalism, providing a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to understanding the complex dynamics of regional integration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 492g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 x 242 x 21 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367763794                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104840577274,"sku":"9780367763794","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/d9282b308f73e5e004a373d9ccaf2e22.jpg?v=1634268073","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/power-relations-and-comparative-regionalism-europe-east-asia-and-latin-america","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
