Abstract:

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>This thesis assesses the rise of Brazil as a global power. To examine this, the research takes an international relations approach to measure power in terms of a state’s ability to influence other states. Three aspects that this research focuses on are wealth, land power, and international influence. These characteristics separate hegemons, global, middle, and regional powers. Brazil’s rise to global power started with instituting neoliberal reform, which produced the economic growth over the last 20 years, and has translated into the a

Abstract:

This project explores the power dynamics within the Iranian political system, asking what accounts for the rise and fall of a president's power relative to the other dominant formal and informal institutions in Iran. Comparing perspectives that focus on charisma, ideology and political bargaining, I argue that the relative power of the president is contingent on a variety of institutional and behavioural factors which define his ability to bargain within an institutional structure of overlapping spheres of control. Within this study, I challenge the traditional emphasis on process as a point o

Abstract:

Many political scientists expect the advent of rising states to bring about shifts in the international distribution of power, on the one hand, and competitive policies to improve one state’s power relative to a targeted state or coalition, known as “balancing,” on the other. Focusing on China’s rise in East Asia in 1993–2016, this dissertation challenges both these assumptions and offers a reassessment of the links between rising states, power shifts, and balancing in international relations. First, I demonstrate that the gap between the United States and China in exercising control over the

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Changes in world order have caused major shifts in the global positioning of states at the international level. The end of the Cold War ushered in a new power structure that shifted from a bipolar arrangement to a multipolar disposition. The emergence of this new world order allowed for emerging and developing states, such as Turkey, the opportunity to fill gaps left by the power vacuum created by the new multipolar power arrangement. This led the Turkish state on its path to become a middle power within the new world order.

This study examines the rise of populism in Hungary and Poland through the Fidesz and Law and Justice (PiS) parties. As a relatively new terminology, the study begins by dissecting the various definitions of populism to establish a universal set of criteria to define the ideology. The majority of experts suggest that populist leaders campaign using a rhetoric of “us versus them” that encourages the population to feel that its general will is not being accurately represented. This strategy is particularly effective in Eastern European nations whose USSR roots makes them skeptical of globalizati

Abstract:

Rising powers face the threat of containment by wary established powers, and must build legitimacy in order to forestall balancing. China’s clever use of norms, rules, and diplomatic rhetoric in international society stand as excellent examples of how a rising state cultivates a positive identity, defends its actions, and legitimises its rising power. Between 1989 and 2009 China attempted to prevent its rising power from provoking containment by selectively utilising liberal images, norms and international law to undermine other states’ ability to justify balancing operations.

Abstract:

Architectural form is both an expression of human desire and built edifice directly related to construction methods. It follows that the responsibilities of the architect seeking new form must extend to the instrumentation of tectonic machines and devices, which are also appropriately new. This thesis proposes a revitalization of the relationship between the architect and machines as a means of restoring intimacy, immediacy, and delight to the act of building. What follows is a presentation of images, photographs, and models related to the design and development of an architecture machine, and

Abstract:

The importance of increasing renewable energy production to facilitate a sustainable energy transition has been well-discussed and reinforced worldwide. In land- and resource-scarce and tropical Singapore, solar has been deemed the most feasible renewable energy technology for the country moving forward. Previous studies have focused on assessing the feasibility of various solar technologies. This paper instead analyses the rooftop solar power production potential of existing high-rise residential buildings in Singapore, and thus contributes to reaching the national solar goal using geographic

Abstract:

On 14th January 2011, following unprecedented popular demonstrations, the long-standing president of Tunisia Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali was forced to step down and flee his country. The event marked the success of the Tunisian Revolution and inspired similar pro-democracy movements elsewhere in the region, triggering the so-called Arab Spring. A great deal of media and scholarly attention has focused on the role of women during the Revolution itself, yet few studies have considered women’s literary and active engagement prior to the uprising. This study is thus innovative as it focuses specifical

Thesis (MA (Political Science))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study explores the claim that Great Power Wars are a necessary condition for successful hegemonic ascent in the modern world-system, primarily from the standpoint of World- Systems Analysis. This study advances the conception of hegemony primarily in economic and state terms, and it was investigated, by way of a historical case study, how the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648) impacted the economic domains of agro-industrial production, commerce, and finance of the United Provinces of the Netherlands,

Abstract:

The Russian Orthodox Church is seeking to reestablish a leadership role in the spiritual health of the citizenry in post-Communist Russia via a concerted effort to forge an alliance with the Russian government, regardless of the secular constitution. Commencing with perceived preferential legislation, the Church has risen to heightened influence that is subsequently being used to disenfranchise non-traditional sexual communities. This paper offers an extensive cross-examination of legislation and intersectionality that highlights the incongruities of this alliance via international, federal,
