Description

How has Russia's invasion of Ukraine changed the international security, economic, and political terrain?

The latest issue of Australian Foreign Affairs examines the global upheaval caused by the war in Ukraine, which has heightened the tensions between democracies and authoritarian states, and has led to a more assertive Europe that could represent a new force in world affairs.

The Return of the West: Australia and the Changing World Order looks at the challenges for Australia in the post-invasion international order and the changing role of economics, military power, cyber capabilities, and strongman rulers.

Essays include:

After Ukraine: How the war changed the world
Europe rises: The new power of the union
Big sticks: Sanctions and the global economic shake-up
Military lessons: Preparing for the next conflict

PLUS, award-winning writer Richard Cooke on foreign policy jargon and correspondence on AFA15: Our Unstable Neighbourhood.
