Rising powers: the evolving role of BASIC countries     

Karl Hallding  Marie Jürisoo  Marcus Carson  Aaron Atteridge 《Climate Policy》2013,13(5):608-631

The exponential growth in global populations, economic activity and resource utilization means it is becoming increasingly difficult to satisfy global demand for a number of fundamental resources, while some key ecosystems services are under stress. The likelihood of future resource scarcities have begun to influence the positions taken within international climate change negotiations by fast-growing developing countries. When Brazil, South Africa, India, and China formed the BASIC group it took many by surprise. The coordination needed to align this heterogeneous group of countries cannot simply be understood in terms of a set of shared interests around climate policy. How the BASIC group emerged and the nature of its cooperation on climate change are examined within the broader context in which these increasingly powerful countries came to join forces. Although traditionally aligned with the G77 group of developing countries, recent strategising as a group of emerging economies reflects their realization that there are insufficient global resources available to follow the same development pathway as industrialized countries. Hence, they must seek alternative growth pathways, which requires establishing common ground while also keeping track of each others' positions on important global issues like climate change.  相似文献   

STAMPS AS MESSENGERS OF POLITICAL TRANSITION*     

STANLEY D. BRUNN 《Geographical review》2011,101(1):19-36

Previous studies of postage stamps noted their importance in promoting national identity and the objectives of the state. Neglected in this literature by geographers and others is a discussion of stamp themes and issues during political and economic transitions. A content analysis of issues during the Soviet Union's last three years and Russia's first three years revealed some significant changes. The Soviet Union issued many stamps and sets on a wide variety of topics, including nature, folk items and legends, international ties, and ideology. Russia issued fewer stamps: Nature was important, but religion and issues that promoted Russia's heritage replaced ideology and international themes. Early Russian stamps evoked an “inward” worldview that promoted a nascent nationalism. In its final years the Soviet Union noted evidence of these changes in priorities and themes with issues that depicted Soviet environmental disasters or honored the individuals killed in the failed Russian coup attempt in August 1991.  相似文献   

Geopolitical Legacies and Central European Export Linkages: A Historical and Gravity Model Analysis of Hungary     

《The Professional geographer》2013,65(1):57-70

This paper analyzes Hungary's export linkages of the interwar and Cold War periods using gravity model and historical analyses. Hungary is a useful example of former Soviet satellites because it combines relative political stability (since 1956) and experimentation with the New Economic Mechanism (NEM) during the 1970s and 1980s. Historical analysis reveals seven events since World War I that changed Hungary's trade patterns. Gravity model analysis for 1955, 1965, 1975, and 1985 shows the dramatic cleavage of the “Iron Curtain,” the effect of the NEM, and particularly strong and weak linkages for Hungarian trade that may result from historical legacies, complementarity, or specific political contacts.  相似文献   

论地缘政治学的核心——地理要素   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

刘新华 《世界地理研究》2009,18(1):6-12

近代以来,以领土为物质基础的民族或者国家间的竞争和合作均发生在特定的地理空间之内。人们对地理空间与民族或者国家间相互关系影响的认识反映在国际关系理论中。就是地缘政治学,换言之,地缘政治是在对国际上各种政治力量及其相互关系进行地理空间分析的基础上,为维护国家利益制定适当的对外政策和战略的一种理论。地缘政治最基本的内核是地理要素．即地理位置、国土幅员、邻国、地形与气候、资源以及距离等。科学认识地缘政治学基本的地理要素．是正确把握、运用地缘政治学的先决条件。  相似文献   

俄欧能源关系中的美国因素     

涂志明 《世界地理研究》2014,(4):23-31

作为国际能源体系中的主要“棋手”,俄欧美三国在国际能源领域中发挥着重要作用。但是彼此间相异的能源结构与发展目标,使得各方的能源战略表现也不同。俄欧的能源合作可追溯至冷战期间,目前双方间的能源关系紧密。但具备全球地缘能源战略视野的美国并不乐意俄欧能源关系的加强与巩固。作为“第三者”的美国对俄欧能源关系保持着高度的警惕与关注。本文从俄欧美能源关系现状出发,分析了美国在俄欧能源关系中发挥的作用,认为其目的在于分化俄欧。  相似文献

当今北极地缘政治格局特征分析   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

陆俊元 《世界地理研究》2010,19(1):1-5

冷战结束后,北极地区逐渐发展为世界政治的一个热点,北极地缘政治局势处在快速的变化发展之中。地缘政治格局是控制地缘政治形势发展的一个结构因素,分析地缘政治格局有助于我们认识和理解复杂的、变动的地缘政治现实关系。本文在地缘政治格局概念基础上,提出了地缘政治格局的基本分析方法,并以此分析了冷战后北极地区的地缘政治格局的主要特征。  相似文献
