Non-Western Middle Powers in the Multipolar Order explores the changing international order, articulating the critical and growing importance of non-western states to the emerging global order. It brings together international scholars to provide new insights on the evolution of international order, as global politics moves from an American-western dominated one to one where major players are from the Global South. They present evidence from Brazil, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and India help explain, analyze and understand the main political, security and economic challenges in these countries. Questions asked include:

· What factors explain the rise of new non-western middle powers?

· How would theories of international relations, specifically realism, liberalism, and Marxism change due to their rise?

· How would the rise of these non-western middle powers shape the emerging multipolar order?

An invaluable collection for scholars and students of International Relations and International Security, that will also be of great interest to scholars with a broader interest in the ever-evolving world order.
