Thornton, Songok Han Thornton.  aNew Delhi :bSAGE,c2012.  a1 online resource (xi, 261 p.)  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.8 a'Toward a Geopolitics of Hope' posits a world order marked less by univocal 'globalisation' than by a grating geopolitics of rival capitalisms. Now that China, Russia, and much of the undemocratic developing world have embraced capitalism, this new Second World can no longer be regarded as a fleeting phenomenon. Globalisation turns out to be anything but the steadfast ally of democratisation it purports to be. Indeed, the Western democratic experiment of the last two centuries is starting to look very tentative and parochial.  aSpecialized.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aGeopoliticsxHistoryy21st century. 0aBalance of powerxHistoryy21st century. 7aElectronic books.2local1 aThornton, Songok Han.2 aSage eBooks08iPrint version :z978813210944040uhttp://ezproxy.alfaisal.edu/login?url=http://sk.sagepub.com/books/toward-a-geopolitics-of-hope  2lcccEBOOKS  c482270d482270
