Geopolitical Challenges to the Global Influence of Western Society examines complex shifts, exploring how emerging forces, from geopolitical realignments to technological innovations and demographic changes, are redefining global power structures. Exploring the decline of Western-centric dominance, alongside the rise of new power centers such as BRICS nations and regional powers, chapters assess the evolution of international governance and supranational institutions, the role of energy resources, the impact of trade disputes, and technological advancements that are reshaping international relations. Through an interdisciplinary lens, discussion spans the challenges posed by populist movements, migration, and shifting economic dynamics, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of the underlying forces that threaten the existing world order. Authors provide thorough historical context and current analyses of global trends, making a case for why a nuanced understanding of these factors is crucial for both scholars and policymakers. As new geopolitical alliances form, and the influence of Western nations faces unprecedented challenges from emerging powers, this book offers fresh insights into the mechanisms driving these changes and their potential future impacts. Focusing on providing in-depth case studies and real-world examples, this publication contributes significantly to the fields of political science, international relations, and global governance, making it an essential resource for academics, researchers, policymakers, and business leaders.
