peer agreement (net): +1multipolar checkerboard Explanation: I'm don't think we can let go of the "multipolar" concept here, as I think it's highly significant in the context of international relations (multilaterality and multilateralism are different but related concepts), but I'm not sure "chess board" is the right angle. I'm more inclined to think of the board itself rather than the game being played, and there are indeed some references to this idea, notably tying the idea of "checkerboard geography" to "multipolarity", although all or most seem to stem from one paper by Christensen and Snyder. Regarding polarity, and by extension, multipolarity, etc.: Polarity in international relations is any of the various ways in which power is distributed within the international system. It describes the nature of the international system at any given period of time. One generally distinguishes three types of systems: unipolarity, bipolarity, and multipolarity for four or more centers of power. The type of system is completely dependent on the distribution of power and influence of states in a region or globally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_(international_relati... Whereas: In international relations, multilateralism refers to an alliance of multiple countries pursuing a common goal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilateralism Multipolarity, Perceptions, and the Tragedy of 1914 - Jstor https://www.jstor.org/stable/23019689 by TJ Christensen - 2011 - Cited by 4 - Related articles "the multipolar checkerboard configuration of power" (Christensen and Snyder. 1990:148). The paper in question is entitled Chain Gangs and Passed Bucks: Predicting Alliance Patterns in Multipolarity. In multipolarity, equal and opposite alliance dilemmas impede efficient balancing. The first is the chain gang problem. In multipolarity the approximate quality of alliance partners leads to a high degree of security interdependence within an alliance. Given the anarchic setting and this relative equality, each state feels its own security is integrally intertwined with the security of its alliance partners. ... Analytically more difficult are multipolar settings that lack the familiar checkerboard geography which makes one's neighbor an enemy and makes the enemy's neighbor one's friend http://home.sogang.ac.kr/sites/jaechun/courses/Lists/b7/Atta... Soviet-American Relations After the Cold War https://books.google.com.mx/books?id=85J1AAAAMAAJ Robert Jervis, Seweryn Bialer - 1991 - Political Science 18 One difficulty with solving the security dilemma through arms control in multipolarity is that allies arrayed in the typical multipolar checkerboard pattern need ... |
