“…As a prelude to what was written above, the collapse of the bipolar world order that was marked by the fall of the uSSr and the Warsaw Pact, symbolically marked by the fall of the Berlin Wall, started the geopolitical transition period. Many authors, such as Krauthammer (1990), Freedman (1991), Carpenter (1991), Nye (1992), Tuathail (1994), and Luke (1994 and defined that transition period as a transition from a bipolar to a unipolar world order with a single world power, the united States. However, this unipolar moment, according to Kenneth N. Waltz and Christopher Layne, paves the way for a faster transition to a multipolar order because it will stimulate the growth of new powerful states and regions (Layne, 2006).…”

The analysis, conducted over five years following the signing of the Prespa Agreement, aims to comprehensively evaluate its impact on the resolution of the longstanding name dispute between Macedonia and Greece and to forecast its implications amidst evolving geopolitical trends. By using a critical geopolitical lens and discourse analysis, the study will examine whether Macedonia made a wise diplomatic move by signing the agreement or whether it was a strategic tool to help the government achieve its aims of joining NATo and the eu. Concurrently, it will scrutinize the agreement's transformative role in reshaping the Western Balkans' geopolitical landscape and its consequential influence on wider regional dynamics. This perspective will illuminate potential cascading effects, encompassing the sway of other regional influences and power shifts. It is discernible that, despite being a significant milestone towards euro-Atlantic integration, the Prespa Agreement's success remains partial. despite Macedonia's accession to NATo in 2020, the agreement did not facilitate, let alone ensure, a seamless path towards eu membership. Moreover, as an example of an asymmetric agreement, Bulgaria has exploited the Prespa Agreement, using the situation to impose conditions and introduce new "unresolved" issues that challenge the Macedonian people's identity, language, and historical narrative. With this development, the Prespa Agreement has temporarily or finally lost its potential for Macedonia to move towards the eu. Macedonia's prolonged integration process may encounter fresh and formidable challenges in a turbulent and uncertain multipolar geopolitical world.

“…"unipolar moment" (Krauthammer, 1990) and the "end of history" (Fukuyama, 2006) to the "clash of civilizations" (Huntington, 1993), many were the possible scenarios for the post-Cold War world. Against Carpenter's (1991) "new world disorder", Ikenberry (1996) pointed towards the "myth of post-Cold War chaos", arguing that the end of the Cold War simply presented the end of bipolarity but not the end of the post-II World War order and the beginning of a new one. Nye (1992) affirmed that we were actually witnessing the "return of history" rather than its end, given the plurality of sources of international conflict.…”

The article aims to assess how the United States has managed the rise of China over the last decade. This is achieved first by addressing the question in a theoretical framework and, second, by making an empirical account on the issue. Therefore, the article contrasts mainly realist and liberal accounts on contention and engagement and applies them to Obama and Trump administration's foreign policies to China. To do that, the paper analyzes the National Security Strategies of both administrations, using the method of content analysis. The research's main result is that the rise of China and the threats to the United States hegemony have been major concerns since the Obama administration. What has changed with Trump in power, though, is the means employed to address the problem, with a shift from engagement rhetoric to an open call for contention. Besides, the paper evidences how this shift is accompanied by a change in the conditions for China’s rise. Recebido em: fevereiro/2019. Aprovado em: setembro/2019.

“…Finally, resources were shifted to enabling private investors with support from government agencies such as the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), OPIC, and the United States Trade and Development Agency (TDA). President Bush, in the first post-Cold War administration, sought to play a leading role in ensuring global stability by working to set up a 'new world order' based on the rule of law (Carpenter 1991). Although the administration saw few strategic interests in Africa, despite opposition from members of the State Department, the Central Intelligence Agency, Pentagon, and Congress, Bush chose to intervene militarily in Somalia to enable a humanitarian response to a famine threatening more than a million people.…”

The global political economy is in flux as a series of cumulative crises impacts its organization and governance. The IPE series has tracked its development in both analysis and structure over the last three decades. It has always had a concentration on the global South. Now the South increasingly challenges the North as the centre of development, also reflected in a growing number of submissions and publications on indebted Eurozone economies in Southern Europe.An indispensable resource for scholars and researchers, the series examines a variety of capitalisms and connections by focusing on emerging economies, companies and sectors, debates and policies. It informs diverse policy communities as the established trans-Atlantic North declines and 'the rest', especially the BRICS, rise.
