International Leadership After the Demise of the Last Superpower: System Structure and StewardshipChinese Political Science Review, 2
[This chapter begins with an examination of the structural factors which underpinned the development of the Cold War in the first 15 years. It is argued that the emerging bipolar structure (and accompanying bipolarization) was an important precursor to the development of the Cold War because it pitted the US and the Soviet Union against one another—by forcing them to face one another. Importantly, key differences emerge when the Cold War is compared with the structure underlying the current US-Russia relationship. The current state of the relationship is that the US represents the (fading) unipole while Russia is in decline, much different from the superpower competition of the Cold War. Furthermore, where the two sides mainly conflict is geographically confined to Eastern Europe and the Middle East, far different from the truly global struggle of the Cold War.]
